Bizarre Avatar issue


Today when I logged in and opened the first thread, under the username, where the avatar usually is, there is now small boxes that say 'free site'. Depending on the size of someone's avie, the list can be three to ten boxes in length. Anyone else seeing this? Here's a screenie:

This morning it's outlined in black and the top header says 'use the dropdown'

One thing I have done is turned off avie's and sigs and such...wonder if that may be it?

Could you dump the HTML and attach it? I would like to see if there is something odd in the HTML code.

It could be a case of some weird cache bug, too. Have you tried to empty the browser cache to see if the problem goes away.

Weird indeed.

That is very strange. I'm going to turning off the forums this afternoon for some much needed upgrades and changes. Lets see if your problem persists after this afternoon.

I will check again later this afternoon. I will also dump any cache on all of my machines and see if that helps as well. I can also dump the html if you still want me to kONGO.

Let's wait and see if it persists after the upgrades and whatnot. If so, we can do a more thorough investigation then.

It's gone now, have the upgrades been done?

I did not dump the cache here on my laptop yet...maybe I don't need to now...

Still, that was the oddest thing I've ever encountered.
