OT Avatar pictures

[Desdichado]

Hey, just an aside -- now that avatars are active again, I've noticed that a lot of folks are giving off that broken image thing from their avatar. Just thought y'all might want to know, in case you're one of them...

Mine works for me, does it work for you? It could be a problem where people don't know if their pic is broken or not because of some reason or another....

 

[Aitch Eye]

I think the custom ones are working all right, but the grab bag we had to choose from here has disappeared.

 

[Desdichado]

Yeah, Dave, yours is good.

HI, maybe you hit the nail on the head for the reason. That would explain why so many avatars -- that obviously were good links at one point -- are now broken.

But everyone should be able to see that, if that's the case.

 

[Aitch Eye]

I've been wondering how many of the people who have broken avatars have their preferences set to not show avatars (edit: to display anyones avatars to them, I mean).

If you click on "user cp", you can find your way to page after page of broken avatars that you have to choose from.

Uh... insecurity is setting in.

Does my avatar show - It shows up for me but I always thought it was a bit high-res for an avatar...

Neurosis complete!

I'm thinking mine works...I got a complement the other day in Meta....but maybe it doesn't... oh dear..

Yeah, and would you believe that, although avatars can be added en masse, they have to be deleted one at a time?!?. And deleting each takes as long as, say posting to a messageboard thread.

Unless I'm missing something obvious, that is.

 

[Aitch Eye]

Morrus, once again I'd be glad I'm not you, if it really seemed reasonable that I might be.

I hope my comment didn't sound like carping, I was just demonstrating that my answer wasn't hypothetical. If you have more rewarding or useful things to do than bringing back the Pokemon, by all means do them.

Can someone let me know if mine shows up please? It does for me.......


And no Spider I can't see yoru avatar.
