Turned on computer this morning and all avators are fine!! :y :y :y


Sorry, no they aren't ::) ::) ::) ::) - Marks DTM avator is still well adrift as are a few other "large" ones I am coming across. ;)





Mine is actualy smaller than the guidlines

Are you using dodgy browser software?

Not showing up correctly on mine either - it's too large and only showing half the image. Quite a few avatars are looking like this and I've switched back from FF to IE7.  :-/

Thanks Andy & Bob, it is some how reassuring that it is happening to others!! :y :y

As I keep stating I know nothing about computer systems ::) ::), only that mine was brand new last year supplied by a specialist firm in Coventry and I have now removed FF in an attempt to rectify as TB seemed to be suggesting. 8-) 8-)

Thanks greatly Andy, much appreciated though! :y :y :y

I have just cleared down 'C' drive yet again along with clearing down my IE cache for the fourth time just to make sure.  Again much deleted, but still no difference to the problem of the avators! ::) ::) :D ;)

Yep, done all that and still the same. As an example, MDTM's avatar is about 4" long but you can only see half the picture. :-?

Your avatar shows as 280 x 350 pixels, I think....  Like others, shows on my screen as about 3 or 4 inches tall and only as wide as to show 'OV' on width....

Mr dtm's avatar is fix.  Trust me, its a local caching issue.

Close browser, go to control panel > internet options, and clear cache from there

(for IE)

Sorted now...   :y

In my (lame) defence, that was the size of the avatar when I viewed it on posting....  Honest!   ;D

There may be a shortcut for FF. But the long way is:
Tools
Options
Privacy
In "private data" - Clear now
Make sure "cache" is selected.
OK.

Whilst we have certain issues with the forum, we do not recommend FF anyway, due to its inability to render stuff as well as IE7.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend FF for average Windows users anyway - far too many holes.
