el10t Posted April 18, 2002 Posted April 18, 2002 Hello everyone. Is there any news on the fixing of the forum avatar bug? Are the little pictures going to come back at all or have they gone forever? Thanks. ----------- el10t mobilis in mobili

Are the little pictures going to come back at all or have they gone forever? Infopop just rolled out the production version of Opentopic 2.2.0 (we've been using the beta version up until now). We're hoping that the bugs in the style sheets have been corrected and will be trying them shortly. I'm watching their support forums to see if any other Opentopic customers have issues with the new style sheets before I try them again here. I'll wait about a week to see if anything surfaces and then we'll give them another go. -Elias
el10t Posted April 18, 2002 Author Posted April 18, 2002 Thanks Elias - that's great. ----------- el10t mobilis in mobili

el10t Posted May 4, 2002 Author Posted May 4, 2002 I know this is a trivial thing, and that there are other priority requests, but is there any further news on this? Many thanks. ----------------- el10t mobilis in mobili

Elias Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 I turned on the new style-sheets. Let me know if you notice anything strange. -Elias

+Markwell Posted May 6, 2002 Posted May 6, 2002 Very cool. Seems to work quite well. I wonder how it's working with the non-Netscape/IE people... Markwell My Geocaching Page
+MrGigabyte Posted May 8, 2002 Posted May 8, 2002 My profile set to "No Avatar", but one still shows up in new posts. How do I get rid of it completely? Also, these things are a hideous addition to the forums. What a incredible waste of bandwidth and time. Once I figure out how to get rid of mine, I hope everyone else follows suit.

They are still there. I s other posters have the same problem as this is also posted to General forum. Try loading that thread on a dial up. It is now close to half a meg! All stupid avatars.

But did you LOG OFF Groundspeak and Geocaching pages prior to rebooting ... do that and then log back on and post.

+alchemist2000 Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I was having a similar problem with my signature. It would not replace the old signature with a blank, despite all of the normal steps of logging in and out, etc. The only way I could get it to not display the old signature was to put something into a new signature other than a blank field. Don't know if that is relevant to your problem or not. Alchemist2000
+Hawk-eye Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 Here's another thought ... physically delete the graphic that you are using for the avatar from the list of graphics under your profile ... then do the log out and back in thing ... worth a try. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Co-founder of the "NC/VA GEO-HOG ASSOCIATION" ... when you absolutely have to find it first!

If there is an avatar with this post, then this is may well be my last post to the forums untill this bug is fixed. I believe I deleted the Avatar from your profile, but I'm not sure why the profile setting isn't propogating between the sites. I'll look into this and see what I can find out. In any case, your Avatar should be removed. -Elias
JasonW Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I believe the same thing is happening to the signatures - I cleared mine out several hours ago from my profile page, but it still pops up here....

JasonW Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Well it's actually the picture of the winning pilot in the 1929 Schneider Trophy - Flying Officer HRD Waghorn - not sure why he'd look familiar to you though
+mtn-man Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Changes seem to take around 24 hours to take effect. I have made changes and they always seem to change sometime the next day. Patience, cachers... patience. I support the Georgia Geocachers Association, or the GGA!

Probably read every book on aviation ever written at one time in my life. Probably saw that photo somewhere ... again ... thanks for the info ... think I'll go read up on this guy.
