Just tried to change mine and can't get it to work. Logged out and in again a couple of times, cleared my browser cache, even deleted the old image from my profile completely, but it's still showing the old one. The new one should look like this:

EDIT: Judging by how many "trying again" posts I see in this this thread, I guess the changes aren't immediate?

Testing again a day later... nope. Funny thing is, I'm still seeing the image I deleted from my account days ago. The new one shows up as my profile photo but not my forum avatar :)

Okay, so what DO you have to do to install a new avatar? I've uploaded a new image and set it in my profile both as my profile photo and my avatar, logged out, logged in, lathered, rinsed, repeated -- works for the former but not the latter.
