Hi folks,

I guess that was the only thing missing when the server maintenance was done on the 18th (so far). Just noticed this recently myself as John_MC9 and I were playing around with his profile picture.

Hey, mine's missing too! Well, now I'm really upset!! LOL!!

For those who know what the GD module is, that's what was missed in the upgrade. It has been reloaded now... I never saw that it wasn't there, darn it... so thumbnails should work again. There's a thumbnail recovery routine in the software that fixes this problem, but in checking my file system just now, I see the routine actually left a bunch of "zero" sized files in the thumbnail folder. Shyte.

Ok, give me until tonight to offload all those zero sized files and we'll all have to re-upload our profile pictures again. Sorry about that folks. These things happen - hey, it's the internet, right? But now, here's an opportunity to upload a brand new picture! For those of you who sent me a picture to resize and upload in your profile, you'll have to do that again, too, ok?

*sigh*

Thanks for hanging in there folks. I am forever grateful.

Ian

Simple, BW - take the photo as a 3/4 shot, not "head-on". . . we old-timers will know, and that can keep the newbies guessing!

Ian,

I wondered about that but decided I didn't remember how I put it there the first time and too lazy to do it all over again!!
