Well, on the bright side, I get free comment flags...

Happiness is when you open the front door and see a little magpie, you wonder how long the bird has been standing there. Then the magpie start to sing a beautiful song, you get the message. So you go back to the kitchen to get some meat fillet for the bird - when the magpie take the first a piece of meat from your hand - that's the moment of happiness (for the magpie)

Sometimes, happiness is just that simple

you need to attract them by gradually luring them closer with food

and you can't have chickens roaming free in your backyard, they will drive all similar sized birds away

Q: Why is my profile image different?

LaurelWhen I first signed up on a Stack Exchange site and got a profile image, it was this one (see my current user card I'm actually not sure what I look like any more): Later, I got Area 51 and SEDE profiles, and my user image there was a different identicon. Because reasons I already know. I wou...

The bug affects only some viewers, and for some sizes. It's something with Gravatar's CDN, serving wrong contents, I think.

They use some crappy provider for static content, this bug also affects SE itself when they update the Sprites.
They have to kick their CDN really hard to make it serve the new version.

oh! ok; finally I decided to change Avatar....

A: Site icons jumbled up

Adam LearI knew I was forgetting something after a new private beta launch earlier today... Apparently that "something" was kicking the CDN cache on favicon sprites. Sorry about that. The relevant files have been kicked now. Please let me know if the problem persists.

SE and Gravatar use the same CDN provider. Gravatar probably can't be bothered to kick it hard enough.

Pandya
So, How do I change my picture on Area51?
 
Shadow Wizard
Shadow Wizard
5:57 AM
You can't.
@Pandya you can only change it via Gravatar itself. The bug affect only identicons (so far) so you can upload a custom picture to Gravatar and it should be fine.

A: No avatar on Area 51

Shadow WizardUnfortunately Area51 is running on older Stack Exchange "engine", or technically speaking different, older, codebase. (I won't get into why it's so, it's big enough for a separate discussion which likely already exists) This means most new features we see on other sites are not making it to Area...

If you mean outside SE, then no.
