I know this is kind of lame and I'm botthering you guys but I have a quick question.

Why won't the forum let me change my picture, I uploaded a new one but it keeps showing me my old picture. O.o



I want this one but it won't change to this it keeps my current one. Can someone help me or explain why it's not working.

If it doesn't mark an error, just wait, it will eventually appear after an hour or so.

Or you could try to clear your cache

Thank you your awesome, how do I clear my cache?

[Waller]

Depends on your browser, but it shouldn't be a problem to find it in the "options". Just search for it a little.

If you have Opera:

1) Click the "Opera" button.
2) Hover your cursor over to "Configuration"
3) Choose the "Options..." button.
4) A pop-up will appear. Select the "Advanced" tab.
5) You will see a lot of options, click the "History" button in the side bar.
6) See the "Cache in disc/hard-drive/whatever" words, followed by the "400 MB" select bar? Besides that you should see an "Empty Now" button, press it.
7) Close the thingy.

Congratulations! You succesfully cleared your cache! In the case you don't see your new image, you'll just have to wait a while

what is a cache

what is a cache

It basically stores some data, such as images, so web pages can be loaded faster. The reason TheRedBomber's avatar isn't showing up properly is probably because his cache is showing the old image which is stored there. If you don't use Opera, then you can google "how to clear cache on [insert browser]" and you should find a guide easily. Alternatively, you can just wait for your cache to clear automatically, which shouldn't be too long.
