I experimented uploading a photo for my avatar, and instead of the avatar correctly appearing as an arty photo of a glass of sangria shattering, it was confused for an exploding tomato.  Sigh.

Avatar is gone.  Gone, that is, except for my "Homepage" & "Edit profile info," where I still see a friggin exploding tomato.

Anybody know how to get rid of the picture completely?

 

FYI--I read the help.  I pressed "control+r", and I logged out and logged back in.  The link box for the photo in "Edit profile info" is empty.  Um, I'm a nice person, I really am, and I know tomatoes are technically fruits not vegetables but let's not twist our panties about it.

 

Honestly, I don't want to bother Erik and Co. with this little ticky-tack annoyance when somebody here might have an answer.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Worked!  Thanks.

 

Curious.  Anyone know how to obliterate it all back to it's default state?

Great!

I'd like the avatar back to its original "grey person/no photo" (like the one in my posts on this thread) for *every* screen.

And I suppose knowledge of how to do so, to reset it on my own so you can do more important things to make a living.

This will just reset the avatar, nothing else, right?

Thanks!

 

Man, you're really racking up the member points, Erik.... ;)
