I just noticed that my avatar changed without me changing it. What's the deal?

I just posted on a thread and noticed that my avatar has magically changed into a picture of me without me messing with it. Why would it do that? My location details also look a little different. Anybody else have this happen?

do you do the facebook connect thing? that might have caused it. just a guess though

Hi,

That would be my guess too.

I am going to test this, by doing facebook connect. I will let you know if it works.

Yep, facebook connect. It links the accounts. On the positive side, when you want to have a new avatar, you do not have to upload a pic any more, just choose from facebook pics!

Okay, now that I think about it, I guess I did click on that little Facebook icon out of curiosity the other day. And now that I click on it again, it's displaying still another picture of me; one that is new and only exists on Facebook. The other one was confusing, because I think I do have it as my profile picture on this forum, but not intended as an avatar. Thanks for helping me figure this out. I kind of liked having my business logo as my avatar...... but I guess that's okay if everyone knows what I look like! :O

Hi,

If you don't like it you can unlink the acounts by visiting your user control panel and going to "edit connections" and unclicking it. :)

Or this link might even work.

That seems to have worked. I just had to go back into my computer and find my previous avatar again. Thanks!
