I've been trying to upload this:

Yet every time I try, my avatar shows the one I uploaded just before it (without the gold border). I can remove my avatar no issues. Is there a limit of some sort?

Both images look identical to me. I assume it's fixed?

You've added Bit-X in your avatar. Are we going to see an addition in the campaign for avatar?

That's because when you change avatar its url doesn't change and there is some cache :

Code:
Date:Thu, 02 Apr 2015 23:25:59 GMT
Expires:Fri, 03 Apr 2015 01:25:59 GMT
Last-Modified:Thu, 02 Apr 2015 22:53:03 GMT

I'm a 'member' but don't see where to add an avatar. Am I permitted?

No.

I see a gold border (only on the right) on the picture that is on the OP, but this is missing from your avatar. I don't think it is fixed

So basically it was fixed for a while. Both had gold border on the right. Now it's unfixed. No gold border. Spooky :)

Maybe he changed it back just to mess with us. ;)

It'll be funny when he changes it to something completely different 6 months from now and some idiot replies to this thread saying, "It looks different." :D

@OP, lock this thread when you're done.

I don't think that its a problem with the avatar, I guess its just happened because I guess Marco har rechanged the avatar himself and now he has uploaded the image with no border and that's why its looking like that(only Marco could clarify) otherwise its completely absurd to assume that the website has problems with borders are other parts of the image.

@marco, here is the reason why you avatar took some time to change(earlier)- "After you upload your avatar, you may need to reload some pages to see it." , this is mentioned on the avatar upload page and is related to caching issues.

This could be a rich meta-troll thread. Let's see how many people I can get talking about a gold border on the right. Or not on the right.  ;D

Thanks dznuts85. I'm still new to bct and the ways in which this forum works and appreciate your helpful reply. Cheers.

Full members and above are the only ones allowed to "wear" an avatar on the forum.
Theymos published information about it some days ago. Please, check it out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1008863.0

I noticed a similar issue with my avatar. The image was squished horizontally. I was wondering if it was just a cookie/cache issue or something similar on my end so I opened up my profile and posts in a different browser, and the avatar looked fine. Now it looks fine in my normal browser, so it's probably a cookie or cache issue.

I uploaded a better version of the current one. (No DaDice logo on the side though)

It still has not updated. But the avatar is here: https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_146601.jpg?a1428085225
Only the old one is showing atm.
