How do you change change your avatar picture. I keep deleting the picture and then uploading a new one but its always the old picture that reappears. What am I doing wrong?

tut-tut richard, you caused all this fuss just because you didn't refresh your browser properly! Glad you got it working now.

For your advice. It worked! Vegas I didn't know you were an IT genius. My friend Jinkx is an IT genius too but I was afraid to ask her because I said she was fat and she probably isn't talking to me now.

your new avatar is s boy wearing blue shirt????? did you do refresh???

By tallg• 2 Apr 2008 17:27

Sounds like a cache issue then if me and JBH are seeing different pictures. I just did a hard refresh (ctrl-f5) and I still see the blue t-shirt picture. This should work for you too, though Richard says he's tried it already. Manually delete the cache as Vegas explained above.

That's my new pic. Strange because the old one shows on my machine!

Thanks JBH, I dig that meaning.

Richard; 

 Cut and paste job

"Means "brave power", derived from the Germanic elements ric "power, rule" and hard "brave, hardy". The Normans introduced this name to Britain. It was borne by three kings of England including Richard the Lionheart, leader of the Third Crusade in the 12th century. Two German opera composers, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss, have also had this name."

To me your avatar is a head shot of someone with brown hair over their eyes (not dislike mine!) and their mouth open, wearing a blue t-shirt. Is that your old or new pic?

I change it regularly in my pathetic attempt to appear interesting. Now even that is denied me.

Strange. I've seen you change your picture several times previously so I'm guessing you know how to do it! Sounds like a QL issue.

At the risk of patronising you, the image you're uploading does meet the size restrictions?

You need to find out what Richard means first.

 

I'll have a look for you.

That is cool. I want a Philipino name too as I am a member of the Philipino expat group. Can anyone translate my name into Philipino?

 

Btw I tried both DaRuDey and Tallg 's suggestions on the picture. Neither worked.

My name in Celtic means spear man, like a javelin thrower in old war times.

 

So I posted a thread last year asking what that would translate to in other languages.

 

And it turns out it translates into Maninibat in Philipino.

 

Cool eh?

Does the picture you are uploading have the same file name as the old one? This may cause a problem so try changing it to a different file name. Just a thought.

By Tigasin321• 2 Apr 2008 17:05

But still the old picture returned.
