How can I update what is supposedly already there???

I have updated my profile about a dozen times in the passed hour and every time I go to my blog and click 'About', I see the same old info... Any suggestions? (Yup, I cleared the cache, a couple of times; even shut down and re-started.)

My second issue is one that has plagued me since the FIRST day I signed in with WordPress. Although everything I read ensures that Gravatar and WordPress work together and only ONE password is required for both. I'm all for that. Anything that saves me remembering another 10-20-digit password is okay by me!

The problem, they DON'T play together! For a more detailed rant, please see my most recent blog, but the jist is:

    I tried to use the 'verify yourself' and was directed to enter my Gravatar password.
    I did so. Received a message that the password or user name is invalid.
    HUH???
    Okay; requested new password.
    Clicked link and entered new password (the SAME one as before).
    Go back and try to connect to verify myself. Now my WordPress password is incorrect. *grrrr*
    Okay, request new password. Click link to reset password. Reset with SAME PASSWORD just entered for Gravatar.
    Okay, both should be linked, right?
    Click Verify.
    Receive: PASSWORD OR USER NAME INVALID.

    WHAT???

So, I am begging for assistance as to what I am doing wrong between these two accounts. I have requested help REPEATEDLY through Gravatar. The only thing they seem able to say is, "Please re-set your password or user ID."

Thanking those with wisdom and suggestions in advance!
*hugs*
luv khrys...
