Yes we mods have to approve any new avatars so there may be a delay before one of us looks in and checks to see if any need doing. There are none to approve at the moment so I assume another mod has approved yours. Is it looking right now? I see a tail view of a pink stick and tissue model?

![]() 601 forum posts 267 photos | Hi Chris Yes pink stick and tissue model (PRU Spit) is the new one I uploaded, but I still only see my old avatar (interior of fuselage of a blue stick & tissue Auster). Why this is I don't know! What do others see? Jon |

![]() 418 forum posts | Hi guys it seems Jonathan isn't the only one experiencing photo problems. Yesterday I placed two adverts and no matter how I try I end up with the same image on both adverts. I change the image of one advert and the other automatically changes to the same. Is it possible that you guys see the correct images and that I have the same problem as Jonathan had? Check out the classifieds for hurricane and Messerschmitt and tell me if both images are different please. Al |

![]() 418 forum posts | I just tried again and now they have both changed to the Hurricane. Maybe it's something to do with the fact I'm on an iPad and not a computer? If people read the adverts they'll see there is a build blog for each aircraft with photos...... It'll be ok in the end. UMM |

![]() 601 forum posts 267 photos | Ok Mods, sorry to add to your mod-load, but I've just changed my icon picture again (a small version of the pic below) and can it please be approved? Because...errr... the pink was a bit extreme and was clashing horribly with the website red, and the new one actually shows it to be a Spit more clearly, albeit one that weighs only 37.5g. Interesting how, although the pink made the PRU pilots feel vulnerable against the enemy, setting a model against a grey background (as per the new icon piccie) shows how effective the colour was for reconnaissance work. I think sorties early and late in the day were the norm, so the lower sun would cast longer shadows and make object-interpretation clearer. Edited By Jonathan M on 07/06/2017 08:58:08 |

![]() Moderator 7515 forum posts 709 photos | That avatar change has been authorised, Jonathan UMM, you're right, both now show the Hurri. I don't have the necessary permissions to edit anything in the classifieds, so could I suggest that you try placing the Bf110 ad again, using the correct image and then delete the existing one? Pete |

![]() 6 forum posts 1 photos | I'm also having a frustrating time with uploading an avatar. I want my ATC squadron badge to show and having tried to upload and crop a square avatar, I cant seem to get it to save it with the whole crest showing. I have just tried again by using F5 to clear the cache so hopefully, it may work this time?
