    Your custom user avatar isn't displaying on the 'new' look of the forum, but it is displaying on the old look.

    Twunkle's isn't on the thread you were recently posting on.

    My own is for me but maybe only me as it's likely cached by the browser.

    The generic avatar is showing and more than half of the custom ones are showing, but it's certainly not just yours that is absent.
    I can see kwikbreaks one OK.

    Incidentally, up to now I've stuck with the old look, because I like to see what threads I've posted on.
    Is there any way to see that with the new format?

    In the old (proper ;) ) version....

    go to user control panel (User CP)
    scroll down, on left of page, to Forum Version Manager
    change to Old Version

    Never used the new carppy version, so don't know if the same options are available in it, may be renamed or under different sub-headings..

    I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple :D

    For me there's a green banner at the top that says
    "Welcome to the new look Forum. Click here if you'd like to switch back.

    But you can dismiss it, so perhaps it doesn't come back after a certain time, or if you've dismissed it?

    possibly, there was much discussion at the time, but can't find any of the old threads about it :mad:

    The big discussion about it was on the Site Feedback board, I haven't looked but I would expect it to still be there somewhere.
