Thanks to Viper007bond on Twitter, I was notified of a new redesign for Gravatar.com. Seems as though most sites under the Automattic umbrella are getting a refresh these days. The new design definitely provides more information than its counterpart along with links to developer resources on the front page. Also, there is a large screencast video produced by Michael Pick which explains what the service is all about.
Gravatar gets a new look
Gravatar is not a complex site so this simple front page sums up the site quite well. What do you think?
I like the new layout! Everything on front page is better.
I also hope Automattic is taking note of some of the suggestions that are being made by WP users on WeblogTC.

Definitely better. I like the use of bigger pictures as well.
@Martin – Me too. I think there are a number of great suggestions in that comment thread. By the way, we have this to look into from Matt:
We could have some fun and try to decipher what that means!
@Andrea_R – Yeah, overall I think it gives a much clearer picture of what Gravatar is all about without having to dive deep under the surface.
