I changed the avatars a while back to 100x100.  Today I was taking a look at the other skins in the admin and I changed our forum to each one, looked at it, then changed it back to the one we had been using (classic).  I logged out and went back to our forum and now it is no longer the paid version and all the avatars have resorted back to 64x64.  I logged back into the admin and put in our key and details to make the forum go back to the premium edition.  Then I went to the css_styles and looked at the avatar settings and they had changed back to 64x64, so I changed them back to 100x100 and saved it.

Problem is that the avatars are still 64x64 on the live site.  How do I get them back to 100x100?

Thanks,
Chris Farris

CSS files will not rewrite themselves, this is not coded into the forum software.

However if you upgraded your forum and wrote over your modified CSS files you will need to make the modifications again.

Coincidently the left hand was upgrading the forum and the right hand did not know it.  So the upgrade changed the avatars back to 64x64.  I changed them all back to 100x100 but they still will not show on the live site.

If you are using IE then it caches CSS files and doesn't check to see if the CSS file has been updated.

You have to do a hard refresh (CTRL -> F5) to force IE to load in the updated CSS file.
