Nope, in fact I tried to upload a new one (couldn't find the old one) and it doesn't show.

I got mine to work with Griffin's help, fortunately.

Now fully bronzeheaded again I can legitimately retake the Last Post

I thought yours was number 35 in the Sibling list. Check it out. But wouldn't rely on my memory.

I don't think a new one (uploaded) would go into the Sibling list as I just invented that. Can you see if it uploaded to one of the other lists. I don't know of any reason why it shouldn't show up somewhere. Might try uploading one myself.

Another thought. Is this the one you uploaded?
If so, I think I know what is happening. Uploads go into directory "attachments" but the profile editor only offers ones in directory "avatars". None of the avatars in "attachments" get into "avatars". It's a design fault. After an upload there should be a question to ask where to store the image. Then one could choose, for example, "avatars" / "Siblings". I've put the image shown above into the Siblings list.

It's teething problems. It was a nightmare migration/upgrade.

Last _{but even bronze heads prove useless} Post

It still allows retaking.

Being ready for quick retaking keeps one awake.

Where is this list you speak of?

Last _faceless Post

Click on your username in any post. That gets you to your profile page.
In the line above "Summary" choose the middle entry (Forum Profile) and use "Forum Profile" in the pop-up menu.
Under "Personalized picture" choose "Choose avatar from gallery".
Choose [siblings] in the left hand part of the appearing table and then go down the right hand part where the avatar list is. Click the one you want to use then safe your profile by clicking on "change profile" at the bottom right of the page.

That worked.

Although I'm using my old avatar.

I thought I'd put the new one in Siblings - it would be the last one in the list. But it seems just putting the .jpg in the list is not sufficient. Perhaps it is a pointer to the "attachment" version that should go in the list. Perhaps one day I will check this out but too busy right now.

That may be Nymphicus which got lost, so if he is still alive he is probably 20 years old which is fairly old for a Cockatiel.

*in that picture he was a baby and the angle on the head doesn't allow me to tell which one is which on a first glance.
