One of the important aspect of Internet is showing your authority everywhere and let people recognize you on different social media platform. This comes with using same username (handle) and same avatar.
Another thing which we need to acquire our online identity is by using same avatar (Profile picture) everywhere. Most important is using them when you add a WordPress comment anywhere it shows your Gravatar and people starts recognizing you.
