So in case it isn't obvious, my avatar has now become a broken link. I was changing it but it now no longer accepts any image at all, even ones I know met this site's standards. Even the default ones just become a broken link box.

This happen to anyone else? It might be because I still use Windows XP which recently discontinued updates, but I find it unlikely that everyone here has 7.

Can't find a technical support forum so this is the best I could think of. Help?

No, we can still see it, it just appears as a broken image for a while.
The same thing happened to me, but I could see my avatar after a few days.

have you tried using another browser? (of course you could just have to wait a day or two.)

Edit: oh now I see it

Give it some time, I see it already. A fish'y kind of thing with giant fangs and has been stomped on his lip? It takes a little while.

I know when i change avatars, it takes a few DAYS to change from a broken link to the actual picture. Perhaps they are physically verifying each pic so they don't end up with someones dick all over the site. That would make sense. Your avatar looks fine to me though. Looks like an alien.

I always direct avatar related questions to these guys. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/chat/The-Avatar-Store-New-and-Second-Hand]

They know what they are doing.

Yeah, happened with me for a couple of other awesome Archer avatars I have. I eventually just settled on this one since it was the only one that showed immediately. Might try the others again if they really show after a while.
