Did you maybe sign up using your email address with the capital U when signing up with Gravatar.com? I was maybe expecting something like this could happen when you asked earlier on about saving your profile.
For the Gravatar to work, the email address you used to sign up for your Gravatar must be exactly the same, to the letter, including capitals if you signed up to Gravatar using a capital first letter.
Try changing your profile again, so the email starts with a capital U again. I have changed the email address checking code when you save your profile, so that capitals are allowed.
See how that goes anyway, you may have to refresh to reload the Gravatar. If that still doesn't work, there's another possibility that maybe Gravatar are converting your email address to lower case automatically. If this is the case, I will have to adjust some of the code to do the same as what Gravatar are doing. -

It looks like it's working now, maybe it was simply the case that we had to wait a while for the Gravatar to show.

It looks like your email address is in lower case under your profile, which tells me that most likely Gravatar.com automatically converts emails to lower case, which I kind of expected they would.
Anyways, problem fixed

So whats wrong with your gravatar? -

It just takes time when you upload your Gravatar for it to show, because they have to rate it by hand. It does say it on Gravatar.com when you upload the Gravatar.
