Right on, Evgeny. There is indeed a cache issue here.

Still, all pictures hashes end with the 's' character. Right on this question page, for instance, your gravatar picture URI is: 

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/db77fe6f52095bd53cbd53a406e2c4b2s?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG

whereas

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/db77fe6f52095bd53cbd53a406e2c4b2?s=32&d=identicon&r=PG

would work (better?)

For instance, take a look at mine:

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/4d8dff2584ac29510f092808ea3afee5s?s=128&d=identicon&r=PG

returns a different picture than

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/4d8dff2584ac29510f092808ea3afee5?s=128&d=identicon&r=PG

Edit: I read Python docs, and while I completely agree with you and the documentation, I do not get why the results are what they are... this is disturbing. Anyway, as you mentionned, the gravatar images are getting updated so it's not very important. :-)

Thanks for your time anyway!
