I'm pondering doing the same, especially since mine has now been recompressed and looks a little blurry :(

I think @freitasm looks after us mods. Pretty sure my avatar is still my cat Pixel :)

It is working for me too - although when I checked it on the server the file was reported with errors. Opening on my desktop worked fine. So it could be something on that specific file that is not right.

It's working on my work PC with Edge but not my home Mac with Safari. I wonder whether the file is 'slightly corrupted' where Edge can cope and Safari can't.

I originally uploaded it as a .webp (which is what I downloaded from Geekzone yesterday 😀).

 

Just converted it in to a .png and uploaded fine.

Please upload JPG or PNG. Webp won't work in all browsers.

@hio77, is that you? I don't recognize you without your trademark cat...

 

The worst part is browsing old threads of inactive users who will now be empty avatars for all eternity... like walking through a mausoleum...

So, just to make sure - if you have the avatar in webp format please do not upload it. If you upload and get a 500 error, please let me know and I can fish your original avatar from the backup. Only upload JPG, PNG files.
