SweetKingfisher1 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Ok, am I going mad or has someone playing a joke on me. My profile photo vanished again . Regards Marina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Marina, so sorry no one has answered you, I do believe there is some sort of testing going on with new software, probably nothing to do with it but just a thought. I am a complete idiot when it comes to anything technical I'm afraid (much to my sons' dismay) Grace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi Marina, As Grace says there is a beta software test going on, but maybe you have clicked summat off to stop your avatar. Hopefully Jonzo will be along to help you soon. Iain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetKingfisher1 Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi Jonzo, thanks for your message. It just seem's weird twice in a month this has happen. All I had done was log on to the site and it had vanished. I will leave the photo off, until if you can please let me know when I can try again, may be with a new photo. Thanks Jonzo.

deebee29 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi Marina I tried to get on to the test site when it launched and haven't been able to get onto the forum at all until tonight so I think something strange is going on Ahh the Joy's of IT. : David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 What seems to be required here is an interface between the live website and the beta one. This would be the System Monitor and Control (1.0) version. So, next time you lose your picture, or the computer does anything else you didn't want it to, just look at it and say... "You're asking for a SMaC Interface". I find this sorts out most problems and even if it doesn't, it makes me feel one hell of a lot better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 perhaps its a file name issue if you are putting the picture in with a standard name, and then someone else loads a different image with the same name? I know it has been a problem with other forums in the past. Grendel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 John... it looks like the thumb isn't being generated: This is the link from her profile which works: This is the link from her thumb, which 404's: Is it worth just copying the profile pic and renaming it to photo-thumb-30102.jpg.. Just to get it showing again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetKingfisher1 Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Thanks everyone, I don't understand what is happening, because I put a new profile photo and it worked at the time and once again it's gone . I log off and then log on the next day and it's gone again . Would it be, because I am on an Apple Laptop ? Just thought I would ask? Thanks for all your help.

JawsOrca Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Yup its definitely because you have a stupid apple laptop! Here's how you fix it;.. pick up that apple laptop.. put it over your knee and snap it in half... then go to PC world and buy a cheap windows laptop (even a cheap one will be better than an apple). Log into the website and upload your picture again... (Or just do the last thing!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetKingfisher1 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Ok All, I am back .
