    I have changed it again now to something else laughing perhaps Ct can't keep up with me innocent but I had again have to clear my cache, log back in for it to take effect.

    Brue if you are using a windows machine try pressing Ctrl and F5.  That works for me.  Also for anyone wishing to changed make sure you have disabled any ad blocker prior to trying.  

    PS don't forget to scroll down the page and click Save.

    I can now see the changed profile after clearing the browser history, it didn't change immediately and I got the "blank face" profile at first. It wouldn't update with f5/refresh.

    TW It's a view from Shanklin Chine IOW.

    I found LLM's tip of Ctrl+F5 worked to refresh the profile pictures.

    To those skilled in the mystical art of CT profile photos all this info might be OK but for the new and the unaware adding a photo won't be easy.

    All it really needs is a statement where you change it, telling you to remember to save after altering and log off and clear your history. Certainly on the iPad it was very straight forward. Touching the change photo button brought up the option to go to my photos. Selecting a photo told me it was 4MB and I needed to reduce it to less than 2MB. Once reduced it went straight in with no issues.

    Strange, I've got Metheven's car and LLM 's young lady and friend, but still got brue's Butterfly, even after closing down and reloading CT.

    Have you fully cleared your cache Nellie, including any for today?

    And to add to the mix - I've supposedly changed from a cow to a cat (via my iPad last night). Time will tell. But I can't be bothered faffing around clearing caches etc.

    I did not see a cat till I cleared the browser history once more, F5 didn't work on my laptop. (It only takes seconds to clear the history but does that mean we have to do it every time a new avatar is launched?) 🐱

    It's Ctrl F5 Brue.  You need to hold the Ctrl button down and press F5 that fully clears your cache if you are using Windows.  Mind you, for some inexplicable reason, it's slow with the CAMC site.

    Yes, thanks, I understand, my point being will this have to be done every time and will new members understand the procedure. We've been here before...right back to 2012! wink

    Not quite sure I understand what you mean, but I think the answer is it has to be done only when you change you avatar. undecided

    I don’t think so. I had to do it to see my new avatar and again to see the cat. As I put earlier a note by the change photo button would help to remind you if you change your own. As to others avatars, it does not really matter,  most clear there caches periodically and they will then get the new pictures.

    Feeling really pleased - actually managed to do it on a Mac, having previously been unable to do so because of the Flash issue with Apple products.  Thanks for all the guidance abovesmile.

    R&R, I now a see a caravan instead of a dog. I still had to clear history to view the change, ctrl f5 won't do it for me, it doesn't work as a short cut, unfortunately.

    Getting the hang of this now!  Just changed it again.  Interestingly, even though my chosen photo was on the desktop, until I cleared the cache, it was greyed out when I came to select it and I couldn't upload it.  Clearing the cache made it 'visible'.  Remember, however, this is on a Mac and they are a bit weird sometimeswink

    This was taken on our favourite CS, near Malton - where we will be (hopefully) in the middle of April.

    On my iPad even after clearing cache and logging in again, it is still a dog. Most strange.
