Another annoying effect of the current forum trouble...

I can't change my avatar picture!

Unfortunately, the profile page that with the "I have my own pic" text box is the same page that would normally allow for changing one's signature, and due, I assume, to the current signature problems, the "Change Profile" button is missing from that page.

It being October, I wanted to switch to my Halloween avatar.

Anyone have a workaround for this (other than changing the names of the image files involved)?

Well, there's always renaming sourcefiles.

Rename the current one to v-vowel-redesign2-outlineav_BAK.jpg and your Halloween one (temporarily) to v-vowel-redesign2-outlineav.jpg

Not a great workaround, but it is a workaround.

That's what I meant by "other than changing the names of the image files involved", but thanks, anyway...

There isn't a fix for it, however I can think of an admin side fix for the entire forum that would probably work. It's the forum theme that's broken so just upload another and switch everyone to it, at the very least it's worth a try.

Even though the errors keep switching and changing look at the url it gives:
8: Undefined index: signature_enabled
File: /home/freed16/public_html/simple/Themes/default/languages/Who.english.php (eval?)
Line: 284

As I said a new skin/theme should fix that given the theme part doesn't change in the errors to my knowledge.

This is why I should never post while distracted.  Sorry Alaric.
