It would seem that my Avatar has disappeared...... - A Meeting of Minds

jube · Jan 10 2009, 11:35 PM

I didn't realise my avatar has disappeared until Ginnystar was wondering if I was updating my avatar. I've looked and it's completely disappeared and I would like to know where it's gone. HELP PLEASE????

And yes, I've tried to look for it in my "user cp" as well as perhaps use a new one but it's not in the "user cp" nor would the forum let me update to a new avatar.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Maybe Cheryl's ice storm stuffed the forum up more then she knows about. So many possibilities.....hmm, HELP?????

Glad to help jube! Would the Help desk be more useful? Don't know what happen. "Srug Shoulder" here.

The only thing I can come up with, is that someone liked my avie better then me because when I went back into "user cp", I had to re-customize my avie to a new one. I kind of liked the old one too. So I'm a bit peeved off, so to speak. Thanks Ginny for letting me know though what happened. I wouldn't have realised otherwise. At least they can't take this one

unless they ask me personally.

I think I've saw that image on a jigzaw puzzle, which is packed!

Had you uploaded your own avatar, or had you chosen it from the set of avatars I have preloaded? I did just delete a batch of preloaded ones, which had been meant for specific users who were no longer using them.

The original one before I upgraded to this one, was one that was preloaded on this site. Perhaps that's where it went to when you deleted that lot. I did wonder where it went to - I kind of liked it too!

IIRC yours was the famous mating flight picture, but on its side...

It's around in many forms

jube · Jan 12 2009, 08:24 AM

That's the one

I won't say what hubby thought, not with little darlings about

***Hans*** · Jan 12 2009, 02:47 PM

The right thing to do is to buy the giant poster of it and hang it over your own or a guest bed...

jube · Jan 12 2009, 08:13 PM

And the next question is, is where do I find it?

Mainly because I wouldn't know what the poster title is or who the artist is?!?!

You're a legend, Cheryl, now next question is it up on the user cp? Fruitloop, I'll go look momentarily
