I cannot change my avatar. Is this a software bug that needs fixing? @Greg Bernhardt

Where specifically did that fail? if you go to your profile, hover over the avatar image, click on the edit button, select Use a custom avatar. select Upload new custom avatar, hit the Choose File button, then select an image file, then hit the Okay button, that doesn't do it? what is failing?

I see an avatar that looks like people.
Three people in formal academic robes and wigs standing outdoors in front of a stone building, one in a white wig and black gown, one with a blue sash.

But if I look at your profile, I see a different avatar that looks like fireworks.
So yeah - caching.

Avatar image of a tall tower with green and white fireworks bursting behind it against a black night sky, with a purple and blue glow at its base.

Night photo of the Sky Tower in Auckland lit with green and purple lights, with a bright green burst of fireworks or light erupting above the spire against a dark sky.


Oh. You're in Aukland! Just saw you on the News. (I have fam in Aukland.)

So how's 2021 so far? Zombies? Alien invasions? Fire-breathing snakes? C'mon. I got to know which hat to wear.

I live in the Wellington region. 2021 has been depressing (at least for me) so far.
