Title: What happened to my DC forum avatar?
Post by: 40hz on May 23, 2010, 09:56 AM
The avatar image file I uploaded mysteriously disappeared. And the button to upload a file is now disabled.

New feature? New rules? Or just a temporary glitch?
 :)

The button for uploading is showing on mine and works, but my avatar is hosted off-site, because it's animated.

The radio button to upload from a file is selectable. But the commit button is greyed out.

I'm on a smartphone right now so that may be the problem.

But I still don't know why the avatar disappeared to begin with.

Weird huh?  :huh:

Works for me, FWIW

Probably hit the wrong frequency  :)

There's  some question about that, especially if the degree is only a third.

It reminded me of this incident (http://cranialsoup.blogspot.com/2006/09/spellcheck.html), with the spellchecker in wBloggar.  ;D

Incidentally, this was how the spellcheck for "ljbirns" came back in Firefox:

Sometimes "progress " isn't progress.  In the  the ancient times I had a secretary ( NOT an Administrative Assistant even -  more ancient  )instead of spell check.
Of course I didn't have an internet ID then  either  ( ljbirns)
But I digress   Where o where is 40hz's avatar ???????

Can't beat 'em. At least not with today's human rights legislation.
I once had a debutante as a secretary. Her spelling was so bad that her most frequent complaint was that "something is wrong with this dictionary!"

Years ago I went on a photographic holiday, and in the group was someone whose day job was air traffic control.  In a later e-mail I wrote to him, I wanted to write "copilot."  The spell checker suggested "copulate."  Later I wanted to refer to the slide transparency film "Velvia."  It offered "vulva."  At that point I hastily closed the application.  I've never seen a dumb object with such a one-track mind.

And now 40hz has his avatar back.

As payment for being the middle man,

sequence of events-(i think, by dates of posts)

40hz looses his avatar

superboyac has it, and a bigger one just like it

CleverCat has a new ride, not sure when she got it

40hz gets his avatar back

-it was meant to be light hearted
superboyac holds 40hz avatar hostage till CleverCat gets her new ride

maybe my humor is warped
