JohnPax, please verify if you are logged into the network. This is an annoyance that I am looking to address, however it is not a bug.

Yes, that did it - I was logged into the forums but not the network :s

Also, this appears to just change my profile picture, we've been able to do that for some time through the user settings - is there still no way to change my FORUM picture?

Profile pic and avatar are one and the same.

No. Changing my profile picture doesn't effect my forum avatar.

Just have a look http://www.youngcomposers.com/pg/profile/JohnPax

My profile picture is Rachmaninoff and my forum avatar is Chopin. I've tried changing it to several different pictures and the profile picture is the only thing that changes.

Glad to see that fixed the problem. Also, to make things easier, the avatar and profile picture are the same. Thus, your profile picture IS your avatar, and vice versa.

Then how come changing my profile picture doesn't change my forum avatar?? I've changed it 3 times in 4 hours by following the little link below my picture. My forum avatar is still the same picture it's been since I joined.

Give it time to synch up with the forum. If you keep changing it, you will most likely miss the scheduled time of synchronization, and have to wait for the next cycle. It might take about an hour or less to synch up.

Edit: I will check back in a few hours. If your picture doesn't update there may be a bug I will look into.

OK... If you're going to do it like this you need to be consistent with nomenclature and not have the ability to change your "avatar" or "profile pic," whatever you're calling it, in multiple places. You should be able to handle everything you need to within your settings. But why not keep it so that we have separate profile pics and forum avatars? That wouldn't be confusing as long as you could handle both clearly within your settings. If you're looking for input, I prefer to have my forum avatar separate from my profile pic because it's more likely that people are going to look at my forum posts than at my profile. I don't want an image of myself showing up on all of my posts, but I wouldn't mind having an image of myself in my profile.

It's been 12 hours since I changed it last.

Okay:

Mike, if you're going to insist on putting the player at the top (I STILL say it looks ugly and is unnecessary if we bring back the "Recently Uploaded Compositions" page), then you need to either allow different sound formats to be supported by the player (like midi and wav), disallow uploads of non-mp3 files to the network, or write some code to make it so any upload that does not have an mp3 is NOT automatically pasted into that player.

Central justification of everything = fail.

Please fix. Looks terrible almost everywhere. There are a couple spots it looks okay, and that's probably why Mike did it. But the blanket formatting isn't working. All you're doing is inviting a new slew of projects to work on, fixing the changes you DIDN'T intend to make when you went ahead and centrally justified everything.
