I spend hours watching the steel go up and figured its analogous to what I do for a living which is build software.

Yes, 100%. This has nothing to do with graphics for a Gravitar, but something that i went mildly crazy about for a while. I was asked a few months ago to join one of these "networking" online business communities. I couldn't even fill out the form "about myself" because there was only one blank for occupation. I have at least four jobs. I work for a 3d animation outsourcing firm in saigon, a mobile phone website, run my own web outsourcing outfit, and i own a charity that builds libraries in orphanages in asia. What would I put down? I was lost! So I didn't, and walked away from the whole idea of networking online. Face to face is better. :) 2 :) Ha!

I set my gravatar up once, I don't know when, but I haven't really thought about it. Once the service comes up, I've pretty much sorted what I'm going to use. It's a picture of me, as simple as that.

You could just show a piece of yourself, too. You don't necessarily have to summarize yourself. You could just show a piece of yourself, too.
