Avatars & Cookies

Post by Hudini »

I noticed that for a couple of days now my new avatar tends to look like my old one on the screen, only a bit stretched. I've seen this type of thing before on some other forums, and I know it is usually solved by deleting the board cookies, which I did and it didn't help. What the hell is going on? Also, when you look at my avatar, do you see a confused dog or a stretched shark with a cat face? It's really starting to annoy me.

I right-clicked on your avatar in Firefox, went to the Properties and saw something odd.

For the image dimensions, it reads 100px × 100px (scaled to 100px × 125px)

It doesn't say that for other people. So Hudini's unique :lol:

It's probably that that sharkocat of yours simply has bigger appetites from time to time.
I'll rethink visiting this place becouse that beast might devour me one day.

A weird thing happened to my avatar as well. On some threads I'd see the one I'd recently uploaded and on others it was a slightly older one. I've deleted them and tried another to see what happens.
