Please check out my avatar which is a picture i took and have resized to make it accceptable and within the limits, so why does it show a " sash " acoss the screen saying online, happened to my previous picture too ?

Strangely enough it disappears when you're not online. :lol:

I cannot see it Rob, if you were on line now you would see it isn't there

PaulT · Posted 24 Nov 2011, 09:04 #4

Ah - the light in the fridge syndrome

Trebor · Posted 24 Nov 2011, 15:53 #5

its still there for me, but strange thing is if I try to copy and paste the picture from the avatar as i see it saves without the sash, and it is not there when i look at the avatar in my settings, i can also see the sash on Micks avatar sometimes when i log on although it is not there now, this is a screen shot of what i see:

Rob, the sash appears over everybody's avatar when they are logged in. When not logged in the sash does not appear. It is not part of your picture. To prove the point, view the forum as a guest (i.e. don't to log in).

Is that a penny I can hear dropping...........

This is a very entertaining thread! :mrgreen:

Trebor · Posted 24 Nov 2011, 19:23 #9

i would love to be able to claim that this was a wind up but sad to say i was deadly serious at the time, i had just changed my avatar and dont remember seeing it on the old one, anyway i have now picked up the dropped penny and will squirm away to fight another day

You could have got away with it, but top marks for fessing up!!

Trebor · Posted 24 Nov 2011, 19:29 #11

its on yours now too, am i getting the hang of this ?

Duncan · Posted 24 Nov 2011, 19:32 #12

Rob, don't worry, it's the websites problem!

In some browsers the banner sits over the photo, on others it sits next to it.

At work we use IE7 (it's the rules, don't ask) but at home I use IE9. With IE7 it's over your avatar, with IE9 it isn't:

Thought well, I am using IE7 and it has suddenly changed to the side - so checked and someone has upgraded to IE9.

It should display correctly in all browsers over the avatar as Mick describes. If its displaying incorrectly in IE9 then there's an issue that we'll address and look to rectify.

Shows at left hand side of Avatar "ONLINE" using IE9 and Win 7 no problems,
just still very slow at the moment!

Duncan · Posted 25 Nov 2011, 16:51 #18

Also at the side on IE9 with windows phone 7.5 (Metro)

Must be an IE thing

Despite Microshafts attempt to make IE more standards-compliant they fail on something that works across Firefox, Safari and Chrome

I'll take a look and see what I can do.

It's not that complicated. If it doesn't work with IE it's just not standard. :stirer:

Um, well, ...
