Seriously. Every time I try to change my avatar and click "edit profile", all the changes happen EXCEPT my picture. Did you guys screw something up, or is it on my end?

Here's the avi, by the way:

I don't see why that would cause problems...

It's on both ends.

You have to refresh using F5 as soon as you press the "Edit profile" button, I think.

I'm not too sure, though.

Avatars are cached by most browsers. You'd think someone would have done something about it by now, but, sadly not~

Let me guess: that includes Firefox.

EDIT: Fixed, new avi showing up, etc.

Protip: Ctrl+F5 to force Firefox to redownload images instead of relying on cache.

I am fairly certain most browsers have a method for clearing specific things from the cache as well

In Opera: right-click on the old avatar, select "Reload Image". ~~I think that should work and I feel like testing it just to make sure. BRB.~~
