This is called an avatar. It is possible to show an actual image of the person posting the comment, if they set up a Gravitar .

So if you want your image to appear on a blog posting;-

  1. Sign up for a Gravitar  account at  http://en-gravatar.com
  2. You will be asked to enter an email address,  after which you will create a nickname and password
  3. Next you can upload an image to associate with the email address you entered.
  4. Go to you WordPress blog admin section http://youraddress/wp-admin
  5. Select the option ‘Settings’, then ‘Discussion’, then Avatar
  6. You will see a panel with options which you set with a radio button. Set Gravitar and then save.

From now on, when you post a comment, the image you uploaded to your Gravitar account will be displayed.
