Title: Cannot change Avatar
Post by: Get-Paid.com on November 19, 2018, 06:06:33 PM
I'm trying to change the Avatar in my profile from this:

https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_505849.jpg

to this:

https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_505849.jpg?a1542650738

But it's not working, tried to log in, log out, upload again, upload blank avatars ... nothing works!

Can anyone help?



Edit: I saved the file as PNG and it worked, but the jpg file is still reflecting the old one.

I can't see any file in the 2nd link. It says 404 Not Found. I think you are having a mistake, although I am not sure.

It takes some time to update. Just wait.

You could also do Ctrl + F5 to reset the cache and see if it updates.

Edit: both links are the same picture?

Like what they have said and posted on the previous links your Avatar will take time to change in the upper right section but every time a member sees your post what they are seeing is the new one you have uploaded, it just takes time for you to personally see it. Try logging out of your account and visit a link where you have posted, you will see that you avatar has been successfully changed. Don't worry about this too much as this is just a delay, even when I was a full member back then I got worried just like you so I just searched some threads first to know if I have a similar problem that is when I knew that this is a common occurrence.

Got it, thanks Theb.
