Go to the setting and change it again. Then visit the stats page. So that you will have your avatar that you want. To change it quicker after words. Sign out then sign back in.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

How long ago did you change it? Sometimes it takes a while for it to show. Also I believe you have to click the box that says save changes otherwise it won't do anything.

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

It's another Bug becuse I go through the same thing. I had to redo it 10 times for it to change. I think when you click Modify Settings, you need to give the server some time. Bnet has always not been so fast because of security reasons.......or so they say.

It has nothing to do with security. It simply takes time - the change has to propagate to each web server's cached, and for performance reasons, updating the avatar is not concered an "important" change. So it can take a while (15 mintues) on one server. The fact that there are six web servers means it could take even longer depending on which server you hit.

So, just hit it once, and be patient. It takes time. If you have a bug, report it to the bnetbugs email address. Don't make unintelligible posts in the forums about it.

Oh, I mistaken that for the threads. It does say that security statement though when I post to soon between each post. I automatically though that avatars has that same issue with posts. But then, how can you spam in avatars?
