Hey I can't seem to change my avatar. Anybody know why? I put the new link in and it changes but when I save it, it goes back to the one I have now. Suggestions?

Oh, pooh. I tried to change my avy, and now nothing's showing up as my avy. I put in a new link and it vanishes when i refresh or go to a different page. Also, there's nothing that lets me browse and upload from my computer. Is there supposed to be and where would I find this "browse" button? Grr..why is technology so frustrating? LOL

That is the browse button to upload your own avatar! :)

Hmm. I appear to have a problem then as that whole section on Uploading my Own Picture is nowhere to be found in my profile settings. I swear I'm not stupid! I figured that's where it should be, but it's not there for me! I wonder why :(

hrmm maybe that's only a mod thing? lol sometimes when I think everyone can see things it turns out it's only just us. I do see that as well when I sign in but i'm also a mod. Can anyone not mod-ish see those things?

ok I was too curious, I had to go back and look. We can see the "personalized pic" and the "I have my own pic" part. And the place where we can enter our url is there, but the "I will upload my own picture" option  and the browse button aren't there.

*whew* I'm not crazy.  :D
