Avatars

I know avatars have been discussed a few times now. I posted about it back in January during our initial bug hunting. I also notice that Candi posted about it in Candi's ever growing... I definately support the suggestion of having character avatars specifically linked to character sheets that show when posting in any games that character is in and having a general avatar that shows when posting elsewhere ob the board but I realize that will require some research and programming on Keleth's part. This post is because. i recently uploaded an avatar to use as my character image and it is not displaying with any of my posts or on the gamers page. When I go to my UCP I can see the avatar but it does not show elsewhere. I did not receive any error messages of any kind and again it does show on my UPC. I see that Keleth, Darthnerdus, and Candi all have working avatars, so I thought i would bring this up. Did I mess up or is there still a bug waiting to be squashed?

Not really still, but apparently a different bug. I'll look it up.

I have tried changing my avatar (first using the button to delete the current one, then separately uploading the new one) and the delete works, but when I upload a new avatar the old one just returns.

Then, I changed the file type from .png to .jpg and it worked. Well, sort of -- the new one is appearing in my profile but my old forum posts went back to the default.

That's a cacheing issue Candi, not the code. I'll see what I can do to force image updates, but if you force refresh, that should fix the issue. I'll look at why your avatar isn't showing up on the forums.
