Description

Since picking up [9716] (which is from #8220) I see that the avatar image being shown in either the WP admin pages or a WP2.7 blog should look like:

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/ecd0449f045e42e66ea24ee9c35788d8?s=32&d=identicon&r=G

but is now being shown as:

http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/ecd0449f045e42e66ea24ee9c35788d8?s=32&d=identicon%3Fs%3D32&r=G

Notice the '%3Fs%3D32' which messed up the URL and when Gravatar attempts to show it for a non-registered user the default 'G' image is returned instead of a generated one. The offending string was added as part of [9716].

Attached is a patch to remove that piece of code again although I'm not entirely sure what the intention of adding it was so I'm hoping this doesn't break something else as a result.

That block of code was supposed to add the size param to a custom location (if passed) as the code which was there to do that beforehand seems to no longer be used.

The issue is, That it seems that 'identicon'/'wavatar'/'monsterid' dont have code blocks in the function, so its falling to the else block, and adding a query arg to a string like 'identicon' creates the problem you're seeing.

I'm going to attach a patch that changes it to only affect urls.
