+lordelph Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) A thread for fun in the original spirit of the locked thread! Make a seasonal avator or ask someone to "do you" here! Some people are having trouble getting their avatar to change, here's a reminder Updating your avatar requires you to jump through a few hoops.... * go to your profile http://www.geocaching.com/my/details.aspx * click the "change/edit" link under your current avatar * upload a new image * click the image to select it as your avatar * then click the "Select Avatar" button which appears * then you must click the "re-register the changes" link to make it work!

+purple_pineapple Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 done all that! Am i right in thinking that cos the two sites are on different servers, then it can take a while to register the change. Just to confirm, if i go back to my account details now, the new, super stylish and by the far the best, avatar shows up as in use...! Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I tried to put a seasonal avatar on earlier, taking a lead from Simply Paul, but there was a server error. Will try again later. It's only a boring old smiley which I nicked from somewhere else. Anyone want to volunteer to make one for The Cache Hoppers - I'm not particularly clever in that department, and I know some of you have heaps of time on your hands! Liane Quote Link to comment

+Moote Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Ahhh, just like this Quote Link to comment
+purple_pineapple Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 ok, i'm stuck! if i check my profile, then my avatar shows up correctly, and when i updated my profile pic, then it updates instantly. it just won't show up on here... Funnily enough, i tried updating my sig yesterday, and that didn't change either. This may sound stupid, but could my GC account have become 'unlinked' from my forum account??? just guessing!
