Missing Avatar

Has anyone else had their Avatar turn up missing?

Roger,

I know you are busy fighting spam, running a business, and keeping things running around here, but I need some help. Not sure if anyone else has had this happen, but something happened to my avatar.
I noticed last night that it was gone from my posts, so I checked from another computer, and it was not there either, then I tried a different brand of browser, and still no avatar.

I looked in the control panel and where it should be there is nothing but a big white square.



Now, I am sure many here will argue that a big white square is probably the perfect avatar for me, and I should leave it, but I kinda miss my little green cactus.

I tried to remove/add an avatar, and it did not work. I tried different files, from different computers; I even tried from work on a different network. I tried uploading from the PC, and from a URL……..still no avatar.
Any suggestions, anyone else had this problem?

Sorry, but I don't have this one figured yet. I don't have database access to dig deep enough to fix this kind of thing.

Thanks Roger, I will just have to go through life as a big white square. I bet Chewie had something to do with it.

It shows the dimensions as 1px x 1px when I do a properties, just like in my posts. I have tried several files and I did get an error when I purposely tried a file that is too big.

No idea Rob but it's definitely a server side issue. Do you have your avatar saved locally?

Yes, I have tried uploading it both from my workstation (several workstations) and the URL in my first post.
