Insight Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Hi, Having problems trying to change my avatar. After I upload the new one, the old one's still displayed (except a bit bigger). Even after clicking "Remove" then adding the new one, the old one's still there. Avatar is 90x90 pixels and 3Kb, in line with the limitations. Thanks in advance, Insight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Well right now you've got a muppet character holding an LP... is that your old or new one? I know of one bug when you try to change avatars, the old one still shows for a while, this is doen to cacheing of the avatars... to get around this yo ucan goto Tools> internet option> then click delete files. Not sure if this is the problem your experienceing or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insight Posted February 17, 2005 Author Share Posted February 17, 2005 Thanks for the reply Wolfie. I know of one bug when you try to change avatars, the old one still shows for a while, this is doen to cacheing of the avatars... to get around this yo ucan goto Tools> internet option> then click delete files. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Already done that, thinking it was the same thing - still no joy I'm afraid. The muppet one's my old one. Would it be caching the "av-5600.jpg" file server-side, or simply not deleting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Would it be caching the "av-5600.jpg" file server-side, or simply not deleting it? Distinctly possible, We would need George to confirm/deny that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 In IE it should not be a problem. Are you maybe using Firefox or Mozilla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Explorer Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 my lame suggestion: replace the pic with your new pic, then click to "refresh". It works for me. Explorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuky Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 When I read this thread the other day I noticed you weren't a muppet looking guy with an lp in his hand, thought it was fixed. Sure sounds like something on your end Insight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure sounds like something on your end Insight. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Probably was Tuky. It's changed to the new one now... Wonder where it was getting cached though? There's no proxy in this office. Think there's one running to filter naughty HTTP traffic at Pacific Internet (our ISP) - could've been that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
