zerologic Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Wanted to change my avatar but no luck. Everything seems to work ok but my avatar stays the same. Just attached the avatar I want to use :happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I had the same problem as well, but saving my avatar as a GIF worked. My guess is that there is a problem uploading PNG's as your avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Had a similar problem a few days ago, it kept reverting back to an older Avatar - I just uploaded the image to an Imagehosting service and linked the avatar instead, worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian M. Veteran Posted August 8, 2008 Veteran Share Posted August 8, 2008 I get that alot of the time too. As Joel said, when you upload an avatar, it saves it as av-memberid.ext. Therefore, if you upload an image of the same type as your last one, your browser won't realise that the image has changed (hence why changing to a gif fixed it for you, Scirwode).

p858snake Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 It might be to do with the current server change, just wait a few days i guess and try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed my avatar to a .jpg and it worked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BajiRav Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I have tried posting PNG/GIF/JPG and it keeps on reverting to my last avatars of that particular type. The new avatar won't show up, no matter what I do. Multiple computer, flushing cache - nothing seems to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
