Forum:Avatar help.

I have a problem: I'm trying to change my avatar to a different one, but the new avatar won't stay. I found a new avatar I want, and I go to my personal settings to swap my old one for a while with a new one, but when I confirm my changes, I still have my old avatar. I've tried about 4 different images, at least 10 times each, but every time I click "save", my avatar stays the same. I asked the highest ranked person on the wiki I spend most of my time on, seeing as ge's very smart, and he said to contact you, 'cause he didn't know what to do. I edit the photos with the link to "mypictr.com" when the photos don't stay as my avatar, save my new one, but the avatar still won't change. I've also tried to change my avatar on other wikis, but they won't change: I don't know if that info really matters, though. Can somebody please help me? Here's the address of the wiki I spend most of my time on: http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing_Wiki C-Star55 00:47, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

I've been having the same exact problem over on the Degrassi wiki. -- Loveya Pictures last longer. 02:33, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

One of my friends on the same wiki is also having the same problem. Does everyone have this problem? C-Star55


 * Try using Special:Contact, explain the problem and link to this thread. If this is a persistent problem across many wikis I'm sure it'll either be fixed or we will recieve an update soon. -- Duskey talk 04:47, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure it's across all wikis, because I'm over here and I can't change my avatar, which is driving me nuts. American che {i like my coffee black, just like my metal} 22:53, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

My avatar seems to be very delayed in updating, when I try to change it, it keeps my old one (?) and then after a while I see the new one... only to revert back? <_>. I specifically made two of the same avatars just so they would not revert..

You see, right now my avatar is Ryu's portrait from SFA3 and I want this avatar here:, and when I update it it says the preference changes are saved as usual? Notrly.  --Havoc '48   01:29, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
