My avatar disappeared

Seriously, WTF?  Why did that happen?

It wasn't an offensive picture or anything, so why did it disappear?  Did the server take a shit and die again?

So did mine. I can't re-upload it either. Every time I try I get an error message.

I had the same problem...but just now I switched browsers and it is back?

What the hell is going on here?!

It's happening to lots of folks. There are several posters whose avatars I don't see. I've been able to see mine the entire time, but as a precaution I uploaded to imageshack and gave it a new link.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

I can explain the browser switch working, odds are that browser has a cached version.
If anyone wants to email me a copy of their avatar I'll see what I can do to swat it around, it looks like any of the internally hosted avatars is having an issue.

Email is my username @Yahoo.com

Yeah I just figured that out.

Not a big deal, I still have a copy of the original.  I will upload it again when the server isn't being a dick.

It's not the server.  Someone reset the size avatars are allowed.

Ironbite-and seeing as how Distind is that someone...I blame Yatzhee

I missed my little thumb biter.

This issue was due to a file path issue in the forum software configuration.

Old on-server avatars should start working now.
