Can anyone tell me why my profile pic (avatar) has gone!!!!!???

Cheers N!

It's a bug in the new code. I'll need to write a program to convert everyone's avatars to something else.

You can re-fix it yourself by going back to where you posted your avatar post, and re-doing the URL in your profile.

Thanks Andrew! It seems to have fixed itself overnight, Unless you did it! hehe Thanks Bud!!!

Cheers N!

Yeah (Sheepish) I actually did it. There's only a small number of people (70 or so) with avatars done this way, so I just made sure they all worked.

You're was unusual as it referenced a Macintosh path. That's hard to fathom.

Re-fixed Golde60's, silver's, and Unity's profile pics.

There's got to be code around here that does bad things.

More torch work required, me thinks.

Haven't had mine for weeks now:cry

vanderaj - February 21st, 2003 at 10:31 PM

Jen,

please e-mail me your profile pic. It's disappeared from the Test it Out here section.

Andrew

Fixed- the image was sorta small :) It was a low res image blown up to 800x600 or something. Don't worry, all fixed.

amazer - February 22nd, 2003 at 02:47 PM

ummmmm the ones that were linked from the testing section arent working cos I deleted the posts. 7 pages of them. *ouch* *ouch * *ouch* STOP HITTING ME! I did ask before i started doing it. Anyhow if any non violent people are looking for me I will be hiding under my desk.

vanderaj - February 22nd, 2003 at 10:01 PM

Don't worry - it had to be done - the old way didn't work any longer, and it's faster and less bandwidth intensive to do it the new way.
