While posting on the Fallen Enchantress forums, I noticed that the avatar jpg I've been using for many years appeared pixellated and looked pretty bad.  I tried uploading a new 100x100 png, and I can see that one in my account profile.  However, my posts to the FE forums are still using the old one, even after a day or two.  What do I need to make the change effective?

Probably most likely success...log into JoeUser.com and do your avatar change from there....

Thanks for the response.  JoeUser.com, in the "My Account" tab, showed the new avatar already.  I went ahead and uploaded it again from there, with no immediate results.  I'll wait a while and check to see if it has taken affect.  Should it appear on old posts?

Quoting Publius of NV,

Yes, it takes time to 'filter' into all of the sites/forums... abd yes, it rewrites to all of your posts...old ones too ...

This morning it had reverted to the old jpg - even posts that were made after the update have gone back o the old pic.  I've uploaded it again, let's see if it sticks this time.
