Summary	0014032: Allow setting the type of Gravatar identicon
Description	In MantisBT up until 1.2.8, you used to be able to set the type of identicon (i.e. the type of the default user photo when there was no specific photo available) like so: $g_default_avatar = 'wavatar'; Since that option has been removed in 1.2.9, this no longer works and we're now stuck with the bland pattern identicon. Can we please have a new option so that we can select the type of identicon (identicon, wavatar, monsterid)?
Additional Information	See http://blog.gravatar.com/2008/04/22/identicons-monsterids-and-wavatars-oh-my/ for the available options.
Tags	No tags attached.

Alyndri 2012-03-12 17:18 reporter ~0031438	This is an issue for our company also. Our team's in a fluster because our default used to be our company logo and now its changed to some weird design.

cyberchriss 2012-07-20 08:35 reporter ~0032351	We also had to turn off gravatar feature on our company site, because of these ugly, little placeholders. I suggest to show nothing, if there is no gravatar and reintergrate the default avatar option which is a nice feature for companies.

dregad 2012-08-15 09:00 developer ~0032573	Reintroduced the functionality allowing administrator to use either one of Gravatar's default images (e.g. identicon, wavatar...) or a custom one (identified by an URL), through configuration of $g_show_avatar.

This commit reintroduces that functionality, and allows use of either one of Gravatar's default images or a custom one (identified by an URL), through appropriate configuration of $g_show_avatar.

In other words, setting the config to ON is equivalent to 'identicon'. Fixes 0014032		Affected Issues 0014032
