Why can't I change my avatar?

[Drake Tungsten]

Every time I try to change my avatar, the control panel won't let me submit my modifications. What the dilly, yo?

[Skanky Burns]

You are somewhat short of the 500 posts needed for a custom avatar.

EDIT: If you are trying to chose a standard avatar available to all, I'm not sure what the problem is there.

[Drake Tungsten]

I'm trying to choose a standard avatar. My current one has gotten boring...

[Skanky Burns]

What does it say when you try to change your avatar?

[Drake Tungsten]

It doesn't say anything. The problem is that I select my new avatar, click the Submit Modifications button and then nothing happens. It's like the button doesn't work or something...

[Skanky Burns]

Ok, that happens to me too. Hmmm. There is probably a problem in the code somewhere.

Is it your fault?

(I haven't quite got bored of this joke yet, but I'm getting there. )

Still gets a chuckle from me.

Either there is a missing radio button in the "select a standard avatar" section, or the page-number "go" button is causing the real submit button to not work. After looking at the code, thats the best I could come up with. My brain has decided to shut down.

"If in doubt, blame Skanky."

I still remember that one.

still can't change my avatar. 'tis a shame i can't change it to the dancing ming

[Tuberski]

I can't either, and the ming dancer is ready to go.

even if i don't use the Ming dancer, i'd like to eliminate the red dot in the upper right corner of my current one

Ahh, so even custom avatars can't be changed any more. That implies that the new "go to a different page" code, or perhaps just the 'go' button has caused problems. I have nothing better to do at the moment (actually, plenty of things I really should be doing, but this is interesting), so I'll attempt to find the problem.

[Skanky Burns]

Done. The problem is the form within the form. Delete the form used to navigate the standard avatars, and the rest of the page works perfectly.

Hopefully the problem could be fixed soon as I can't use my new avatar now as I can't upload it.
