I Cant Change My Avatar Please Help

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Hey I cant seem to change my avatar. It took the original picture great, but now i cannot change it . And it is James Kirk... It seemed like a really good idea for aproximately 5 minutes. I thought that I had updated it with a new image last night but I came back into work this morning and it was the old image.

Please help!!!

Try deleting all old files and cookies n that in your web browser... or.... try another pc... same thing happened to me but it came good.

Thanks for that mate, that is one thing that I havent tried... Ill give it a go now :-)

[Chris_R33GTSt]

I don't think its changed anything on my end... Can someone please tell me what avatar they see>?

delete your avatar completely. then add the new one, if that doesnt work. delete your avatar, then upload the image you are trying to use to some thing like http://imageshack.us then just use the URL to link it across. It tends to work better when you use the URL option, instead of uploading to SAU

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Ah... Thats an option that I didn't consider! Thanks Slim. The funny thing is that I deleted my avatar over the weekend and left it for about half a day before uploading the new one (giving it heaps of time to update tables and replicate in the DB). From my home PC (and IP) I see the new avatar and from work I see the old one, so I am thinking that it may be related to the IP I log in from at work. I will try logging in from a different external IP at work to test this tomorrow. Ill let you know how it goes as I want to try diagnose what is causing the issue

BTW I tried flushing the cache and cookies from my system at work and that didn't resolve anything so ill let you know whats up tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice mate

Cheers.

Christian.

i got rid of captain kirk for you (thank god, says everyone on SAU )

see if you can upload your new one now....

[Chris_R33GTSt]

Haha cheers. I realised that it was stuck there soon after I uploaded it originally. I CBF doing anything about it until it really started to annoy me that I couldnt update it.

Time to get in some more practice at changing your avatar.

Your image of choice has been removed due to several complaints.

Please keep in mind that this is a public forum, and any images of such a grotesque nature are not suitable.
