Hey Stangnet team,

I’m having trouble changing my avatar. I tap “photo library,” tap the photo I want, and then it shows up for a few seconds before disappearing and reverting back to my old picture. I’m on iOS Safari, so maybe that has something to do with it? It’s 89x89 pixels so I don’t think size is the issue.

Anyway, thanks for doing what you’re doing. Just wanted to bring that to your attention.

If the above is not working, can you clip or type the error message you're getting?

Tried that, I get the same result.

That’s the thing, I’m not getting an error message. My new picture appears next to the “choose file” button for a few seconds, then my avatar flashes the new image for a blink and reverts back to the old image.

At the same time this happens, the “choose file” section goes empty, like I haven’t selected a picture yet.

I’ll try on my laptop later today and report my findings. Maybe it’s a problem with the image itself.

If that doesn't work, post up the image you want to use here and I'll try it on my end.

Whether or not [that] works, I'll give Mike a head's up. It's probably a database permissions issue. Your account settings all appear to be correct.

Tried on my laptop, exact same result.

Here’s the picture I’m trying to change it to:



Maybe Willem Dafoe’s face is blocked by some kind of obscenity filter?

Well... It's doing the same thing to me which means it outside of Forum's control and inside of the back-end

I've elevated the issue to the dude in the image above. I should have some news in a day or so.

Alright, thanks for keeping me posted.

Say hi to Mr. Dafoe for me.

Might want to see if you can change where you get the image from. It may not be a sharable image.

I tried several, including ones that I had taken myself. None worked.

You know, I believe I saw that Dafoe was killed in that John Wick Movie.
Maybe his image does not work after death???

Doesn’t he die in that Spider-Man movie too? Shouldn’t the two deaths cancel each other out? Maybe it doesn’t count since he was a villain…
