How Do I Change My Avatar?

[fairycakes69]

Hi been on gravatar.com changed it on there but not on here. I'm using an ipad, Is there anything else I have to do?

Cheers

When did you change it on Gravatar?
It should feed through to here if you are using the same email address for here and for Gravatar, but it can sometimes take 15 minutes or so. (At one time they only changed on the hour)

fairycakes - your avatar is now showing.

I think there can sometimes be a delay. Give it an hour and see if it changes.

This is the one I see.

I can't remember whether it's the same as before

[fairycakes69]

About half an hour ago, thanks for the reply, I should really learn to be more patient.

[fairycakes69]

That's my old one that is showing, I'll pop in later and check.

I see a Queen Elizabethish fairy with a cake-like crown on her head, carrying a wand

In recent months mine has always changed within 15 minutes, sometimes within 5 minutes. I think yours would have changed by now if the change had been made on Gravatar. I suggest it may be worth going back to Gravatar and checking that your new avatar is showing as your Primary avatar

And that it is attached to the email address that you used to register on AB.

[fairycakes69]

I've gone on and it's my primary one, it's asking if I've cleared my cache? I have no idea.
Sorry last time I changed it I had no problems.

[factor-fiction]

I don't think your cache is the problem as I've cleared mine and I'm still seeing your old profile on your profile.
But if that's what Gravatar suggests then you might a swell do it. You need to go into your browser settings/tools to clear the cache. Or you could try using control F5 and maybe signing out of AB then signing back in

[factor-fiction]

I know shoota and I have already suggested it but do you still have the same email address for AB and for Gravatar? If the new one is showing as your primary one on Gravatar it may be worth logging out of gravatar now.

[factor-fiction]

Hurray.

What did you do?

Something about F in Fairycake

[fairycakes69]

Thank you for all the help :-)
Happy now

[fairycakes69]

I cleared the cache, and signed out. Could have just been good timing, who knows, but thanks again for helping.

[Alston]

There's no doubt that you now know how to change your avatar. Today's is now different to what you altered it last night.

I like it better than your previous ones.

Al.

You're just showing off now, faircakes69. Another great avatar

[fairycakes69]

Cheers,
All thanks to you two.
