changed avatar yesterday and it changed instantly

but chatbox userscript shows both avatars

it gave me the error that says it took to long to upload or whatever

I don't want to change my avatar. :)

so many people here have the urge to change their avatar even after like 3 days it might as well be called obsessive changing my loving avatar disorder

house = done up


i still think its cache

This is why I keep one avatar.

I don't get why people want to change it every 20 minutes.
this this this

how avatars links used to be created (I believe it stopped a year ago)

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=148115;type=avatar <--(This is broke because avatars used to not be replaced, but a new link was created and the old one was removed)

how they are now

Newer versions of SMF (2.x) do it like this:
avatar_[profile#]_[random#].[extension]
(block it like avatar_[profile#]_*.*, for 1.x: avatar_[profile#].*)

That way your avatar blocking antics won't get forgeted up just because they changed their avatar (though linked images still break)
but at the same time avatars will finally be instant and you won't have to delete your browser's cache
