    Exclamation What happened to my Avatar and Signature?!

    Last login was 2 hours ago at work.. When I logged back in here at home, I noticed that my avatar is now LeChoke instead of Pippen.. And my Signature is also no longer Pippen. What happened? I didn't make these changes!

    I checked other threads, and I saw my signature pic as avatar pic of stuart and karim: http://forums.interbasket.net/f6/all...54/#post603385

    Hello Duncan, let's trouble shoot.

    How did you upload your avatar? Are you uploading a picture from your computer files or linking an image from another domain?

    Weird, it's still awry on mine, here's a screenshot when I checked again after being logged off for 4 hours:



    I still show up as a LeChoke fan, and all the other members have different signatures & avatar pics from what I know that they have.
    I hope the forum administrators can take a look at it. I can easily upload them again, but wanted to let the forum know.

    After logging out of InterBasket Forums, deleting my cookies, clearing the cache, and logging back in, this is now my Avatar and Signature Pic:



    Isn't there a log of what changes a member does to his/her Profile? If you check, I haven't uploaded anything yet, so either the forum system is a bit crazy or someone with "power" is playing with my profile. I am an insignificant newbie member, so I hope it's not the latter.

    I see only Pippen's back as your avatar everytime I come to this thread since this morning

    Wow!! This is pretty crazy. Like Mindoza, I am seeing Pippen's back for the avatar and the Pippen banner in your signature. Weird.

    Good ideas.
    this is now my Avatar and Signature Pic:

    That little guy doing the behind-the-back pass looks like durden_tyler's avatar, but like I said, I see your normal Pippen stuff.
    Isn't there a log of what changes a member does to his/her Profile?
    No, there is no log that I can find.
    If you check, I haven't uploaded anything yet, so either the forum system is a bit crazy or someone with "power" is playing with my profile.
    I hope not!! I don't think anybody is doing anything.

    No way, you are not insignificant, Jeff! You are a very valuable member, newbie or old-timer. Anybody who loves basketball is welcome here!! ...even if you're a Bulls fan.

    I'm guessing this is just a glitch (do people still use that word?). Maybe the next time you log in, it will be OK?

    Cleared cookies, restarted Firefox, and checked page.

    I still see Pippen.

    Thumbs up

    I just got in at the office, and all of a sudden it's showing my correct avatar & sig pic.



    It's weird that when I went home, and plugged in the same laptop I use at work into my cable internet connection at home and logged into InterBasket, it went heywire!

    mvblair, do you see the IP addresses of members logged in to the forum? And has this ever happened to anyone before? Really weird, it jumbled all the avatars and sig pics, as the other members had interchanged avatars & sigpics of other members as well.

    I will certainly take screenshots as soon as I come home and log in to InterBasket again from home. Thanks for your attention, bros!

    And the Bulls will have all the pieces together when the lockout ends!

    See my avatar is going places it shouldn't be in. It just reflects the owner's real life habits, i think

    (Good luck troubleshooting this one guys, i can't contribute any techy advice so i'll just chime in like i know tech stuff like you do )

    Huh. That's definitely weird. Does that mean that your browser at home is processing wrong? Maybe if you tried it with a different browser? I don't know. It's weird.
    mvblair, do you see the IP addresses of members logged in to the forum?
    There is a way to do it, but we only do it if we suspect somebody has multiple accounts. But if you want me to check something for me, just PM me and I'd be happy to do it.
    And has this ever happened to anyone before? Really weird, it jumbled all the avatars and sig pics, as the other members had interchanged avatars & sigpics of other members as well.
    To my knowledge this has never happened before. Has anybody else had this?

    Keep us posted.

    Yeah, and the Cavs are back in the play-offs too, right?

    My Profile is now using a different Avatar, but still James' (durden_tyler's) avatar as my signature pic.

    Try to go to User CP > Edit Options and find the category: Thread Display Options. See if the Show Avatars box is checked.

    This is just too weird. It's frustrating, but I want to understand why you're not seeing your avatar and sig.

    I have access to change users avatars, so I downloaded your avatar and sig, and then installed them into your user profile from my computer. Did that work?

    I tried looking and looking in the vBulletin (that's the forum software) help sites, but I can't find anything like this. The only similar problem is that people have seen weird photos show up in their photo problems, but the solution is to just re-upload photos.
