Hello Zac,
I've been wondering for awhile now, how to enhance the author interaction on Wordpress by adding a bio, a gravatar, and social links which then can be displayed on blog posts. I know about gravatars with wordpress.com.
Can I create functions that will create custom fields within the admin panel to allow a user to upload an image, and insert there social media information and that can be displayed on the single.php file, and the an author page?
If you could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated.

I have actually used this plugin: http://fanciestauthorbox.com/
That plugin should handle everything you are looking to accomplish as far as images, bios, and social links!
