Huh... It randomly appeared after I typed that. That's very bizarre.

I prefer my change to be global and economic. I don't mind sweeping political change in both methodology and ideology.

What I can't take is small changes in a forum of two dozen people or so that I use on occasion. That's where I draw the line.

I hate to tell you all this, but this isn't the end result. This is still another step on our way to get a really cool forum that never has problems (or that, when it does have problems, has problems we can fix!). It'll be cool. I hope.

Cool? Yeah right. P.S. C, if you need help setting it up or something, talk to the MLIN guys, specifically sdlynx and Frenchie. They are smart and can help. Even though they're apparently in 8th grade.

This is the same format as my family's forum, so this is kinda creeping me out. On a more important note, WHERE IS MY AVATAR? And everyone else's? I got mine so long ago, I would never be able to find it again! I am rather attached to it . . .

I'm going to switch a setting, hopefully that will make everyone's avatar reappear.

I mean, seriously. How come I'm the only lucky one?

I think you're plotting something.

I don't know where the avatars went, I was trying to figure that out myself. But I may be able to help you as far as yours goes.

I'll, um, email it to you.

The setting I switched didn't do anything. Bah humbug. I can only hope that wherever they are hiding is going to be backed up with the rest of the backup.

Well, they are cute. Don't worry, I found them and re-uploaded them.

Happy day. The world is almost at peace again. Except we still need 42.

Don't worry, I sent it to her and she'll be able to re-upload it if and when she wants. You know, unless she wants to wait until we've moved.

I didn't know you had emailed me until I read this, but thank you so much! Worked like a charm. Happy sigh.

I hope you're still keeping track of those avatars...they likely won't stick around when we effect our move. Which, guys, will be in the next few days! Hooray!

Uploaded avatars won't stick around by default, but it would be easy to do a very small amount of scraping and pull them into the new message board. (Slightly harder would be getting all the ones that are now missing, but in most cases that should be possible too. I assume people would like that, if Informe doesn't do it themselves?)
