App like Gravatar which shows the initial letter of the user in a random background
color.

   after activating the plugin. Once the plugin is installed, it detects the user
   gravatars which are not set and are default, then they will be converted to SQUARE
   ICONS with First Letter of User’s Name.
 * This plugin also keeps the default gravatar settings, so once plugin is deactivated,
   old setting will be applied again.
 * This will show Gmail APP like gravatars in Comments list and Users / Members 
   list.
 * This plugin has no settings, it just uses converts the default Gravatars using
   jQuery.
