   The Self Taught Man Black Hole
   Yesterday I noticed mmq and CF's avatars are of the same cat but with the image flipped so I decided to make my avatar also the same cat but upside down. But when I put it as my avatar on my computer, and now, it shows up when viewed on my PC with the cat being right side up. But when I look at the forum on my phone, it shows up upside down.
   
   wdf?

   Turn your PC monitor upside down.

   So, let's get this straight. When you view your upside down avatar on Niggas, it shows right side up on your PC?

    Did you set your avatar from your phone or PC?

    I'm not really sure what you mean

    Delete your thumbs.db file in your Windows folder.

    I'm not sure it has anything to do with thumbnails updating, because when I change my avatar, I can see it on pc immediately. It's just that this particular change seems to be being "corrected" on my pc but not on my phone

    Well, if it's displaying correctly on your phone, then it must be either your cache or thumbs file on your PC that's the problem. There is also a thumbs.db file in your browser's cache folder that could be rendering the pic incorrectly. If you use Chrome, the thumbs.db file would be located at Documents and Settings\[your machine name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\[most recent temp folder]. You would delete that thumbs.db file and refresh.

    That's not very good logic

    Sure it is. If the problem was on Lanny's server, how would the phone display it correctly?

    Try another browser. If it displays correctly on the PC with a different browser, then you know it's the browser or its associated folder files at fault.
