Whoops! I broke your avatars :|

Post by zicada »

Sorry guys,

I was messing around trying to set up default avatars, turns out the way avatars worked on the old boards vs the new caused some issues in the conversion thing, so every avatar was overwritten.

If you had an avatar you'd really like and you are unable to find it again let me know, and i'll poke around the old site.


Again, sorry, my bad. Good i messed up something as trivial as this though i figure, instead of say, the entire database or something, heh 8)

Anyway, please leave the default one as is if you aren't going to put up your own.

Not everyone wants a stupid avatar. Please refrain from choosing how we customize our own profile and forcing options on us we may not want.

My old .gif avatar no longer fits the dimensions of this forum's maximum allowance, width/height-wise. I am highly disappointed.

Hey, if you still have a backup of the old site, think you can pull my signature out for me?

The final image link (Gir fading in and out) was cut off by the character limit of the new forums, and i did not have a local copy of the image. A search of my cache did not turn up any results.

Was made by an ex-ALFAn who i quite enjoyed playing with, so if its recoverable, that would be just swell :D
