Avatar Issues - It's not changing...

[The Young Turk]

Hi, I've tried to change my avatar. But there's a problem on the forum.

Old avatar: https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_453207.jpg
New avatar: https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_453207.jpg?a1497894655

As you can see new avatar's url is different than the old one.
Why is that happens? And how to solve it?

Ps: I've deleted old avatar (by clicking upload button) and then uploaded the new one, so this is not a solution.

Seems that there is an forum issue at the moment, I "changed" it too, it says that It has been change but it doesn't refresh.

I cleared the cache, reloaded the website ignoring the browser cache (CTRL + SHIFT + R) still the same!

Theymos or Cyros would say something.

No it is not a forum issue.It takes a while for the new avatar to reflect,sometimes it just isn't visible to the you but it doesn't mean it hasn't changed.Like in Op's case,I already see the new avatar on their profile.The closest illogical thing I have done to is to log out and log in again ,works perfectly.

In fact loging out & loggin in and then CTRL+F5 worked.

In this case your way is not illogical.
Avatar changes are related to the sessions. When we log out we kill the session, and then relogin a new session is created and there is our new avatar.

I'm glad I found this thread.  I never had this avatar issue before until now.  It was getting annoying since I removed and added it many times.  The solution was the CTRL+F5 and it worked.  Thank you.

     Okay, so here it is. I too have a problem in changing the avatar that I have because every time that I try to change it no matter what picture I upload, the same image goes back again and again. I really have no clue why this is happening. I have already tried pressing upload without choosing a file to remove my avatar and it gets removed. But by the time I upload the avatar I wanna put in, the one that gets into my profile is the old avatar I had. I have also tried the things that worked for you guys but now, the avatar doesn't show up, even the old one. What should I do?


EDIT : There it is again. the old avatar of datarius. :/


EDIT2 : it worked now. thanks to this thread!!
