avatar help
i created and uploaded a new avatar last night. it's a 12 monkeys gif.

it was showing last night from my computer at home. posted a few times, it was showing up just fine. got to work this morning, and it's still showing my old one (EAT ME).

i cleared cache and cookies, restarted my browser, uploaded the new one again, and i'm still seeing EAT ME.

first, what do you see? the 12 monkeys, or EAT ME?

second, what do i do now?



any help is appreciated.

1. I see the Twelve Monkeys avatar.
I'm not sure why you see your old avatar.

2. probably because my work computer is HAL, and enjoys seeing me getting angry.
weird.

any ideas of how to get it to show from here?

3. I have no suggestions
You did everything I would have suggested.

Maybe just give it time, maybe the work computer just doesn't like change.

Sorry I have no answers.

7. Oh thanks - I changed it on Groucho's birthday.
I'll stick with this one for awhile.

I like your avatar, I like active avatars.

6. 12 Monkeys ...

Your work network may have an internal cache that is being accessed rather than the uploads.dem ... directly.

Just a shot in the dark there, but that's all I have at the moment. I see your new one fine also.

8. i thought of that too
but i don't think it's the case here.

i've gone through the cache clear tool that the company offers as well. it's never let me down before, until now. but good idea nonetheless.
