I went in and changed my Avatar, but when I go check to see if it has changed, it has, but not how I wanted it to.

I went in and selected a new scenic picture, and put that on, but when I go check the results, there is my old Avatar all squashed, stretched and mishappen! Not a good look for me personally.

But when I go into my controls my new Avatar is there, but it does not show up in the postings.

What did I do wrong?

I just changed mine and the same thing happened. It took a few min. to finally change on it's own. Just wait, it should change.

When this happens, hit "refresh" :)

By the way, I love your new pic!

I can see both new avatars. Absolutely gorgeous!

That happened to me too. I just refreshed and it finally changed properly. It does look weird when it happens though :lol:

Thanks everyone for your help.

This morning it still was all skewed, but when I pressed refresh as advised, it fixed itself.

Whooppee

In case you are wondering it is The Church of the Good Shephard at Lake Tekapo in the South Island of New Zealand. We did the touristy thing (as we travelled 1200km/ 900 miles from home to get married) with all the family the day after we got married 18 months ago, and had to go see the Chruch. Usually in the middle of winter it is covered in snow.

I also have it on my desktop.

I see a young child in your avatar in a rugby looking shirt holding out his/her hand.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
