Having problem with "Edit Account"

Tuesday, June 29, 2004 by Lady Aarielle | Discussion: Stardock Software

When I go to "edit account" and then to "upload / edit your desktop image" it behaves as if it has uploaded the new picture, but does not change it.

Also, it shows one picture ( a much older one) in "edit account and a different one when I click on my name in the message boards.

Anyone have a clue what's going on?

Sygate Firewall has (if I remember correctly) a privacy setting...disable it for IE until you upload the file and then re-enable it.

Yes, it says "welcome Lady Aarielle" at the top right corner.
I also, have tried this after totally disableing or shutting down the firewall.... none of that has helped.

That's the one I've been trying to upload since you fixed the SDC update problem.... in other words after disableing the firewall, etc..

'zzpurpdesktp' is the name of the one I've been trying to upload right now.
Remember that it will change the name but not the picture.

Change the name to something else.....the picture there now is of a ship. Take a new screenshot and give it a different name and upload it.

IOW. it's the right name but not the right picture.
Unless we're seeing different pictures???
'zzpurpdesktp' is a purple WB called "Wrath" and my wallpaper is a ship and that's not what I'm seeing when I click on my name!!

OK, now I'm really confused... you are seeing the corect picture but I'm not.
I just changed the picture again... it's the ocean with a small island and a WB called 'Nimbus'.
I am not seeing that at all. I'm seeing a pic I uploaded a long time ago.

It's not you...I now see the Ocean pic...rename that ship desktop to 'Desk' and unload it

You are not going to believe this!!!
I went to "edit account" and it's the same picture from weeks ago... so I clicked on it to see if I could see the date on the clock and when I clicked on it I saw the one I just uploaded. Then, when I closed the 'preview' window it reverted back to the one from weeks ago.

Now when I click on my name here on the boards I'm seeing the one that had the SDC update problem.

I still see the correct 'Ocean' pic...dated 06/30/04 (I do not see the older one). Try the name change and re-upload the ship pic.

OK, I gave it a name that doesn't remotely resemble any other name for a picture I've ever used for uploading.
