Avatar trouble

ad

Greetings

I am experiencing a bit of a big when uploading a new avatar
The image reverts back to an old avatar, even when deleted. Then when a new one is uploaded, I still see the old one (clearing cache/history did not seem to be the main factor)
It seems to become visible over time in forum posts, but the old avatar is still visible on my profile page

Just wondering if there is anything can be done about that?

Cheers

delete the old, clear your cache/temp files. Wait a day or two. Upload the new file. Wait some more.

Often times it changes but what you see is not necessary what I see. You might see your Facebook selfie, I see a demonic face... wait, nevermind, just try and follow the steps I laid out above.

It took mine around a month to completely switch over. It'll happen though just have to be patient.

I have experienced this it can be that new avi doesn't fit requirements or that it has geo tag or cookie type of id attached

Sometimes its just the system takes time to update and you won't see the changes for awhile.

I would check the image first its usually the size or use exif stripper or something of that nature to pull any information off the image.

Good luck

Yeah I nailed the size
It's an odd one. I'll leave aviation deleted for few days and will give it another go during the week!
