IE 5 also does not see it, so I guess there is something wrong with the Image (maybe an animated gif or a special, unsupported gif format ?).

I used two different pics (jpg and gif), it's always the same. Öhm..... I can see it now. No idea what's going on here.

Ever tried to convert it into a classic .jpg ? That should always work, unless you're linking to a freehoster, that has limitations for Image Links and alike maybe (?)

This is really strange. Undecided

I saw it yesterday after I opened the image in a secondary window.
It works in IE6 with the following steps.

- Open a secondary window and paste the URL in there.
- Refresh the archive forum and select a new topic where you have already posted.
- Your avatar pic is now visible.

However, after coming back to the forum this morning, it's gone again. I had to repeat the same steps in order to see it again.
