In my functions.php file, the mytheme_comment function looks like that:
function mytheme_comment($comment, $args, $depth) {
$GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment; ?>
<li <?php comment_class(); ?> id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<div id="comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>" class="seppp">
<?php if ($comment->comment_approved == '0') : ?>
<?php echo 'Your comment is awaiting moderation.'; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<!-- <h3 class="no-indent"><?php comment_author_link(); ?></h3> -->
<div class="comment">
<div class="span-16 last partners notopmargin clients">
<div class="span-3 notopmargin">
<div class="bordered_img">
<?php echo get_avatar($comment,$size='70',$default='<path_to_url>'); ?>
<h6 class="colored" style="margin-bottom:0px;"><?php comment_author_link(); ?></h6>
<p class="small nobottommargin">Date: comment_ID ) ) ?>"><?php echo get_comment_date('M d') ?></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="span-13 notopmargin last">
<div class="testimonial span-13 last">
<?php comment_text() ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="span-16 separator_dash"></div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<?php
}
But then I don't really know what the difference is with the twenty eleven comment function that could explain the avatar is not working :/
