    I'm having the same issues. I changed my avatar once, and now it won't let me change it to anything else but the default.

    Anyone else? For whatever reason this is not working for me. I feel like an idiot for having tried and failed to change my avatar a solid 20 or 30 times

    I also cannot change mine to a new one. I was able to initially set this one, and I can delete this one and revert back to the default image. But when I try to upload a different one, it reloads this one.

    I have that problem as well, it won't let me change my avatar at all.
    There are still quite a few bugs that have to be worked out! haha...it shall all come together soon enough though. Nice job on everything 10c! :)

    It may have something to do with the file size of the new avatar. On many boards, avatars have be below a certain file size.

    The one I have been trying to do is definitely under 100x100 and the maximum size is 30 kB. I can revert back to the default, any of the colors, but when I try to load one, it reverts back to this one, even after I have "deleted" it. Hmmm....

    I guess there are still some bugs....

    I've tried to change my goofy picture several times to no avail. Guess I'll live with the smirky photo until the bugs are fixed.

    Same here. I changed mine once and now everytime I try to put a new one in it goes back to the original one I changed it to.

    I'm having to keep it as one of the default ones for now :(

    This is exactly what's going on with me. Very frustrating!

    Glad I'm not the only one this is happening to. I was starting to get really frustrated there for a few minutes. Hopefully this bug will be fixed soon...

    My only gripes with the avatar system is when I try to change my avatar. It shows it just fine when I post. When I click on my profile it loads the very first avatar I ever used that I had deleted. Don't even know where it's even pulling the picture from. So basically my avatar on the forum doesn't match the one in my profile. :?

    Also how come you can only view your own profile from the PJ home page? Also if you click on someones username you can't see the profile stuff that you/they enter on their profile page (my blog, vids, pics etc. . .) or is there another way to do that?

    not sure about that, I don't have the problem.. but then both my accounts had been linked automatically, it might be that for people that got their accounts linked manually, there's still 2 different 'numbers' behind the scene.

    yeah, that's a bit silly to be able to list your shows, but no-one can see it.

    Lots are changing theirs so I know it can be done. Someone did post something about it changes after you have exited I think. :) I know there was a problem in the beginning though so maybe there is again. :?
