I've had enough of looking at my face on the message boards and tried to change my avatar. However everytime I upload my new avatar it says 'update successful' but my ugly mug is still there! Does anyone know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks

I liked your 'ugly mug' but you seem to have solved your problem as it has been replaced with something I can't quite make out. Lol

Your face has now gone. The same happens when I change my Avatar (I don't mean your face disappears). There is a time delay (caused by a black hole in Orion's belt, I believe).

Thank you temperence, although I am concerned about the quality of men that visit your book shop if you find anything appealing about my face!

The picture is of the classic hangman game which I thought would give everybody something to do while I bored them on my threads.

Ahh, I can see it now. I think I may need reading glasses!

I'll have you know my little emporium attracts only the Beautiful People. In fact something very easy on the eye is browsing in the crime section right now, so you'll excuse me while I shimmy over...

If you're still seeing your face, have you tried refreshing the page?

And as far as people in bookshops go, my friend lent me the Black Books boxset last week, so I'm picturing drunken Irishmen and bearded south-westerners?

You're picturing the staff. I have no idea about Temperance's blood alcohol level (could be a clue in the name) but it don't look like she has a beard.

Ah, well, the customers must all be actors from I'm Alan Partridge and Maid Marian, then!

Oi, you two! Don't you know it's rude to talk about a girl when she just slipped off to pick up, I mean serve, a good looking customer?

No, I don't have a beard - thanks for that, Ant! - and my name is not my nature.

Black Books is great and sometimes spookily accurate.

What is it? Looks like a bedding roll balanced on a gibbet with a list alongside. Am I close?
