I tried to use the option to remove my avatar without replacing it with a new one, so I ticked the box where it said to do so, and after pressing the "update information" button I got this error message on an otherwise blank white page:

Provider error '80020005'

Type mismatch.

/forum/user_upd.asp, line 102

So Jan, when you get around to messing with the forum stuff next time, you might want to take a look at this. That, or I'm incredibly stupid and did something wrong.

Oh, and I'm using Mozilla Firefox version 0.8 if that makes any difference.

Tried it with Explorer and got some error message with that too.


If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

This happened quite a number of times, and I still recall complaining about it a long time ago. Nobody seemed to have cared, though.

I'm suspecting the people here are afraid to touch the subject of this particular matter. Say, an urban legend of sorts? *raises brow*


Amusement spread across his sultry lips as a feminine hand touched his. "What?" A faint voice trailed along the wind and whispered into his ears, drops of sweat dripping down to the soil followed by heavy breathing and panting. "Nothing. I just like the way you taste."

"Hey," a female voice interrupted. "Stop talking to that glass of orange juice. You're freaking me out."

That happens to me all the time. Usually after a few tries it works though. I'm not sure if it's my computer, or the actual site. But, Urban Legend sounds better.

So you don't get it all the time? I've been trying a few times but still doesn't work. Sheesh.

There, I was trying to set the immage data to "Nothing" instead of "Null", it didn't like that. I could have sworn that it used to work, but maybe I forgot to test it or someting.

All existing posts will have your avatar replaced with "nothing" (just a blank space), and all new one will have no avatar...

Wish I had coded the message "headers" differently, as it is now changes in avatar types and titles are not retroactive, and I don't feel like manualy ediging 26.116 messages right now :P Hmm, can probably work around that though, just a bit of work to change the database structure at this point...

Hey, you put up a new feature too. Showing when registered users were here last time. Pretty neat.

Yep, it was a sudden stroke of inspiration :P Figured if it was going to be dynamic I might as well add something like that too :D

Took a while to make too, perfectionist that I am I wanted to make the grammar and plural correct under all conditions too... One heck of a lot of if cheks in there :D
