For some reason I can't recall I made my picture the Abby Road album cover but with Lego men as the Beatles.. Then last year I doodled little Christmas hats on them for this event last year..

Then everytime I tried to put the old one back it either gave me no avatar or the Christmas one. After a few tries I just left it up and got used to it.

Is it just something cached on my computer or is it still that for everyone else?

And someday I would like to switch it back.. Anyone else ever run into this problem?

Click your profile; you uploaded the image you wanted there instead of as your avatar. In "User CP", the "Edit Avatar" option is a few links below "Edit Profile Picture".

This should really be in an FAQ or something.

His avatar has santa hats. His profile pic doesn't.

Just for yinz, I have improved my GIMP skills and wasted at least an hour during which I should have been embroidering. It's been a long day, I deserved a little play time.

Sunday: Got up early, fed kids, washed and dried kids, went to church, came home, cooked lunch, cleaned kitchen, finished installing carpeting on steps all afternoon (I've got sore palms and brushburns on my knees and I could only listen to the Steelers), cooked Sunday potroast and yorkshire pudding, cleaned kitchen, cleaned up after carpeting install (this is a big one - I'm bad about cleaning up after my projects), collapsed on couch, played with GIMP. It was my reward to me. I did end up embroidering until midnight after that. One dress down, one started.

If you're implying it could have been grown-up time, well hell, I've already got brushburns on my knees.

Good grief woman! And you have no furniture that is about waist high? Really? I am so sorry. I had no idea you were so impoverished. We shall start a charity drive to get you something to bend over!

You're a foul and loathsome beast
You're a soulless pun debater
And a marginal masturbator
Dear Khampelf...

Isn't it funny that 'abort' and 'pull out' mean the same thing, but also sort of opposite things, too?

I was disappointed to discover that the follow-up to "make like a fetus" is not "and abort" but "and head out of here." However, my boyfriend came to the same initial erroneous conclusion, so we've now decided that that's how it works, at least for us.
