It changed while I was away to something strange that I couldn't even read.

How did this happen?

I hope it is OK now.

I still can't read it CS. That's two strikes and you know what happens after three.

Isn't it a seal now?

Mamma, you must have the best eyesight on the planet. I couldn't read that to save my soul.

OK, I rebooted and I still see a seal.

Are you guys still seeing that strange avatar?

Or are did you gang up to make me think I'm crazy?

It's working.

I've gotten the seal from the beginning. Wonder what the problem is. Nancy

[mammallama]

What seal? As in a mammal? I get a logo for avatars. Nancy, I DO get the wine.

AHA!!!

Mamma is trying to pull a "Gaslight" on me!

For those of you too young to understand that, it is an old movie where Charles Boyer tries to make Ingrid Bergman think she is going mad in order to get her money.

Plot stolen by "Midnight Lace" where Rex Harrison tries to make Doris Day think she is going mad in order to get her money.

But Mamma, I have no money!

Too funny! I LOVE the movie GASLIGHT. Really, I still see the avatarity.com thingy. Maybe it's ME! What does everyone else see?

Sorry you don't get the real cute cuddly white seal. (No, I am not "gaslighting", altho' I think DH pulls it on me every so often - or else I really do forget everything. Moi?) Nancy

[celtic selke]

No Nancy, it's not you. My SO has imaginary conversations with me all the time. It seems to be a man thing.

He gets so mad when I look at him with a blank face as he goes on and on about how he ALREADY told me something.

Poor guy; losing his mind for sure.

I've still got the avatarity.com thingy. But I can see the seal if I do the following:-<UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>Right click on the avatar.<LI>Left click on Properties.<LI>Select (highlight) the URL of the picture (ends in .gif).<LI>Right click on the selected bit.<LI>Left click on Copy.<LI>Open a new browser window.<LI>Right click in the address bar.<LI>Left click on Paste.<LI>Press enter.<LI>Press refresh (F5).

That makes me think that the problem is one of those about hotlinking - the avatarity.com website is allowing you to call the picture file directly from your browser, but not when it's done from another webpage.

I see the avitar.com thing also. No seal!

global,

I did all those things. Will that make it work now?

Or do I have to do more stuff?

The funniest thing is that the e-mail notification of your post which I read through my AOL software showed the seal, as does using the Internet Explorer browser inside the AOL software, but a separate browser window (which I prefer) shows the avitarity.com thingy. Which just confirms, I think, that avitarity.com has a problem with sending the image in response to some requests but not others.

[mammallama]

SEE! I thought I was the one going goofy. Glad to know I'm not the only one not seeing things!?!! I did what globaliser suggested and saw a cute baby seal. I will now imagine it in that spot each time I read something from celtic. Mammallama
