Forgive me, I don’t know technical terms. I have uploaded a picture (you know, the one that shows up when you leave a comment on someone’s blog) but it is reverting not only to my old picture, but to a weird part of my old picture. Rather than being my face and my husbands, it’s just our bodies. This is pretty irritating and hard to explain. How do I fix this? My site is http://timanderin.wordpress.com, if that is needed.

OK, so it worked here. But other sites it doesn’t.

It’s called an avatar and I see yours in this post http://timanderin.wordpress.com/2008/12/03/christmas-tree-help-wanted/#comments Perhaps you need to clear your cache.

I’ve found that it helps to reupload your avatar. If you uploaded a full image before, try cropping it to a square first.

It’s not retroactive. The post I linked to was much newer than the one you linked to.

Oh my gosh, justjennifer, you are a genius! The problem one was defaulting there. I’ve deleted it forever, thanks so much!
