In summary: cache.:smile:You need to clear your cache. The New Images have the same reference (in same directory) and name as the old ones. So when you visited here before the change you would have downloaded a local copy of the old badges. If you do a couple of reloads on the page it may force it to download the new image, if that doesn't work you need to clear your... cache.

I am surprised, amazed, flattered, happy and honored, thank you. I expected to get some votes, but not to win. Let's have a great 2007 in the forums.

I honestly think this "banner" + "guru" thing is more of a burden, than a reward.

We've had several people refuse nominations. You're free to do so in future competitions.

I just finished a post and saw the banner pop up under my name. Boy is this wierd. I must say I am a bit uneasy seeing the word "guru" next to my name. I am definitely not used to such accolades. It really is hard to believe considering the others that were nominated as well.

Not to sound too much like a bad Oscar speech, but thanks to everyone who voted for me (and even those that didn't). It was very unexpected. I will do my best to uphold the position that has been held by other gurus before me. I figure if I start my beard now, I should have a 1/10th of Astronuc's beard by the time the year is up.

I am humbled, never thought I'd be a guru. Thank you to the mentors who work tirelessly to keep this place running and their hard work to choose the members for these honors.

Thank you to the members who participated in the voting, without you the forums would not be what they are today.
 
  • #19
Hey well done Dr Transport, now get back the the Tech forum and answer those pending questions :D hehe
 
  • #20
Oh my God, I completely missed out on the voting, just so busy these days. :frown: :cry: Anyways, hearty congrats to all the winners! Very well deserved! :smile: :approve:
 
  • #21
Congratulation to all, well deserved. A special congratulations to OlderDan for his outstanding contributions in the homework forums. Also, a special mention for Astronuc whom in my opinion encapsulates everything PF should be. Once again, congratulations to all :approve:
 
  • #22
Thanks to all of you who have kept this forum active over the long haul. I am honored to have been nominated and selected for an award, but I feel a little like I snuck in at just the right time to grab a few votes from other deserving folk who have maintained a steady presence here.

I think this place is a great service to the learning community, and I'm happy to be able to make some contribution.

Hey, congrats to all of you who make PF what it is.

Shouldn't these be like the others? Or at least have the correct year! :smile:

Looks right to me. The banner is for contributions during the preceding year, not the upcoming one.

Hmmm... maybe it's just me. On my screen, pervect's and Fred's awards are the old-style and say 2005!

Maybe I have to clear my cache?

yes u need to clear your cache. The New Images have the same reference (in same directory) and name as the old ones. So when you visited here before the change you would have downloaded a local copy of the old badges.

A page reload did the trick. Thanks!

Dan, you did a heck of lot more than sneak in at the right time. That you made such an enormous contribution to HH in such a short time only adds to the merit you carry.

Thanks again!

Beautiful banners! What an excellent list of winners! Of course we had an excellent list of nominees to select from, this was tough.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Now that you've explained about seeing '2005' on your page, it makes sense. I always saw them as '2006'.

Good job, everyone! Congrats!
 
  • #34
Congrats to all the new award recipients, and a big thanks to all those who were nominated for helping make this such a great place!

Congrats, gurus!

Make sure you get those checks in the mail ASAP.
