Sorry so long in acknowledging your help, King, puter and/or net really slow today. I will try what you say and maybe contact you if I need help, if that's ok.

Am going to head for bed now as I have an early start in morning.

Thanks again

In my opinion (not that it counts, my dirhams for your thoughts, thats all), you shouldnt change that avatar unless you are convinced that you absolutely should.

People in this forum has come to love and identify you with that little green gorilla. To change it would be absolute murder. I am not saying that we will not get used to seeing you in a diferent avatar. But there will always be this sense of loss, of what it originally was and what it should originally have been...

Whether you love it or hate it, you have become one of the best known faces in QL. And i believe that people like to see experienced faces, for they trust them and respect them.

For those who have never seen you face to face, you are the icon in green. The people who join after you change the icon would not have a problem. But believe me, the people who knew you before, would feel the loss.

I would. But then, I am an old sentimentalist fool.

Up to you!

I often change my avatar. what I do is delete the first one then hit submit then upload another avatar then submit no need to log off just hit refresh and voila! it will change it! Good luck! ;-)

can explain to me how to upload an animated image?

Like, say, DaRuDe and Mystic and others have? I have a nice one of a bird, but I can't make it fly :-(

It takes time before it changes, that's what happened to me when I changed avatars.

I had same problem.

You go to your account, delete your pic. confirm

Go into account again and hit Ctrl F5 - that clears the cache - confirm

THEN go back into account and submit new avatar.

Hope it works

did for me!

ahmd told me how to do this when I contacted 'help' in here

the cookies or even the offline files that you got if you need to and try again. I was just wondering where is gypsy's avatar, I know that you were trying to change Gorillaz since ages .. but it is strange that it won't get changed :(
