Avatar change - why doesn't it show?

[Peckris 579]

I've changed my avatar picture, which shows in my Profile. But when I do a posting, it shows my previous avatar picture. What's going on?

[TomGoodheart 373]

Did you change your Personal photo, or your Avatar Peck? They are different and I'm not sure but I think it's the photo that appears next to posts. But I have both mine as the same pic, so could be wrong!

Not sure of the answer, but I've noted a couple of users whose avatar is different when I view the forum on my pc to when I view it on the iPhone. I've always assumed that one version of the forum shows the 'avatar' and the other shows the 'photo'? It might be worth checking both the avatar and photo in your profile.

Snap!

I asked this question a while back. The solution is to flush the cache in your browser.

It's because you isn't elite Peck. You need to know how to bribe the forum gremlins properly

[Peckris 579]

Cache flushed - let's see what happens.

YAY - that worked. Thanks Rob.

I thought it had been At'd and slabbed as a VF50BL(ue).

However, unless everybody else flushes their caches - you'll be the only one that sees the change. I've just flushed mine and see that your avatar is now cyan coloured rather the purple/blue it was before.

I think this is a forum s/w issue. Every time a user uploads a new avatar, a unique filename should be generated so that all browsers will download the new image.

I am sorry Peck, but I have to inform you that having looked at your Avatar, I must conclude from it's tone, and it's colour, it is not covered in Verdigris but it is a modern Fake.
