Sometimes you can upload a new profile picture but it doesn't change when you go back and look at it.
Nine times out of ten this is problem occurs because the old picture is still held in the browser cache on your computer. Although the old and new profile pictures are visibly different they have the same 'name' in the web site and so there is no way that your browser knows that the server has a different picture than the one it got last time. To save time it just displays the one in the cache.
The problem will go away with time (well strictly speaking will go away the more you use your browser) - but if you want to accelerate the process you can clear your cache (on Internet Explorer go to Tools->Internet Options->Delete Files). Other browsers have similar options.
If this doesn't work then maybe you have a different problem - so contact Amanda@trannyradio.com. |
