Letter Avatars enables custom avatars for users without gravatar. Avatar will be replaced with the first letter of username or e-mail.
Letter Avatars does not use any images, scripts, or font-icons. All letters will be rendered by your theme font (or Optionally via a Google font).

Nice

Nice work! Much better than "Mystery Man" for unknown users.

I chose this plugin over another similar plugin which had more installs and reviews because this plugin offers a solution as simply as possible. No images or scripts needed, just plain old CSS for the win. Kudos to the developer.

Lightweight & Elegant Solution

Works great and with good support by the maintainer. Thanks for your work!
