    Avatar Keep Disapearing

    This just started happening for some reason and I'm not sure why. Each time I log into my account my avatar is missing and it says "Your Avatar" in the space where my pic should be. I can go in and re-upload the pic and it will be there for the rest of the session but if I close out and come back in it is gone. The pic is of the required size and type and is still on my hd. I have not tried any other pics yet but can if that might be the problem. Any ideas?

    Never heard of that before.

    Do you have to reload your profile photo also or is it just the avatar that you are having trouble with?

    I see a profile photo right now, no avatar.

    This is something js (Admin) would have to look into.

    I'm not able to see a profile photo or my avatar, hmm. When I get home I'll have to jump on my wifes computer and see what it looks like from there. Just started yesterday for some reason. Might try loading a different pic too, just to see. Thanks for the reply.

    I think that they did some maintenance here a couple of days ago. My avatar was missing also but seeing as I had been unable to log on for about 12 hours I was just glad to have the site back up. When I was finally able to log on, no avatar. So far today, everything seems back to normal. Patience IS a virtue.

    I'll check on it when I get home from work... All of the image files got corrupted in the server transfer... I'm having to upload from my backup located on my hard drive at home. I may have missed your image. I'll look into it.

    Had it come from the Obama came there would have been a slash through the pic.
