I did a search honest, but it didn't come up with anything.

Anyways - I tried to change my avatar. My Controls avatar edit page shows my new avatar, but my posts don't...what am I doing wrong?
'Tell me, Tool, what dominates your thoughts?'
The Imass shrugged before replying. 'I think of Mafia, Adjunct.'
'Do all Imass think about Mafia?'
'No. Few think at all.'
'Why is that?'
The Imass leaned his head to one side and regarded her. 'Because, Adjunct, they are sheeple.'


Sometimes I wonder, "Why is that frisbee getting bigger?" ... and then it hits me.

I'm assuming your new avatar is a cat in a field, bwgan?

Yes indeed I can ;) Just wait a bit, sometimes it takes time for your avatar to be visible to yourself, that might be to do with the skin your using, but I ain't sure. I'm sure the admins could explain it, but I can see it fine.

I'll wait a bit longer then I'll start feeling really paranoid ;)

I had the same problem when I changed to the big A on a black background. It probably has to do with some kind of files beind stored in your browser something something or something of another something.

Apt, really technical.

It is quite possible that the cookies in your browser haven't adapted to the change in picture. This takes time, or you could just try changing your cookies. My avatar always seems to update immediately...but that's just me.

Could depend on your browser too....

I usually hit "refresh" on a page where I have a post until it appears

Takes 2-3 times, usually.
