Avatar not working

[marym625]

I have a jpg, 6kb, and it won't load. I don't receive an error message. It seems to work. But, the avatar doesn't change

Any ideas of what is wrong?

Thanks for any help

1. I think it did work. This is what I get for your avatar image:

[font style="font-size:0.85em;"](although smaller and square)[/font]

Sometimes it takes a while for the DU servers to sync up the image files. I think avatars get uploaded to upload.democraticunderground.com but are usually served by www.democraticunderground.com - apparently the different servers don't sync immediately.

3. I did some things that I was told on my post in

Computer Help.

Thank you. I guess just too much crap in my cache, etc

4. It could definitely have been your browser using a cached image instead of the new one.

The quick fix/test for that is to hit Crtl+F5 to reload the entire current webpage and not use any browser cached files.

5. Thank you!

I will do that next time I have the issue.

I am sure that will work with lots of issues. Thanks for the tip!
