HOw to Get Gravatar Image with PHP

Written by Rahul, Updated on June 3, 2019

When you are creating an application and want to display the user’s image on their profile picture. This can be a better option for you to take users image from there Gravatar account, from where we can simply get the image using their email address.

<?php

$email_id = "hello@example.com";
$default = "";
$size = 200;

$gravatar_url = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/" . md5(strtolower(trim($email))) . "?d=" . urlencode($default) . "&s=" . $size;

header("content-type: image/jpeg");
echo file_get_contents($gravatar_url);
?>

<?php

$email_id = "[email protected]";

$default = "";

$size = 200;

$gravatar_url = "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/" . md5(strtolower(trim($email))) . "?d=" . urlencode($default) . "&s=" . $size;

header("content-type: image/jpeg");

echo file_get_contents($gravatar_url);

Copy the above PHP script and use in your php code to show users gravatar in their profiles.
