What file format are your avatars? Mine is extra shiny now. And I haven't changed it since BEFORE the move.
EDIT: after taking a quick look at your pages, it looks like the difference is that your avatars are JPG while mine is PNG. Maybe it's a flaw in how the forum compresses JPGs?
I don't know if this has already been addressed or asked, (still looking for the answer)
Is there currently an issue with signature pictures? or have they been completely turned off? It seems I am unable to add my flaming "Comrademoco" signature again.
Also I am using Microsoft Edge on Win 10. I have checked with Chrome and it seems the signature picture results in an "error" image code.
I have also checked with Chrome on my Android device and the results are the same, the signature image does not show up.
Speaking of signatures, any reason why I still can't use colored text in my signature? Neither html nor BBCode.

Well, it's Monday, and it looks like changing my avatar on ARC has never affected my avatar on the forum. If you're able to see it, Trendy, I set my ARC avatar differently from my forum one to see what it would do, and the ARC one has not come over here.
Also, I tried to delete my forum avatar with the "Remove Picture" option, but it won't do it on Firefox, IE, or my phone. The forum avatar remains no matter what I do. I wonder if a moderator would have the ability to completely delete my avatar (rather than changing it)?
I've been exchanging some emails about it. There are some things I have been able to fix, but those that I couldn't I have escalated them.
OK, thanks for the update. Per the suggestions someone made, I'll try later tonight to create a PNG version of my avatar to see if the problem is specific to JPG. When I find out, I'll let you know.
Please let me know if you need any more information on the troubleshooting steps I've taken and tactics I've tried.

It's related to SSO and Vanilla resizing. Even if you were to upload in a different format, it wouldn't fix it. This is something the team is looking to address.
Yep...new format didn't help. Oh well, it had to be tried.

I see you got this working now. Just did an element inspection and the reason it wasn't showing in this post and possibly in your sig earlier (which you may have now realised) was because you'd missed the http:// from the start of the link, so the forums auto parsed the URL to this sites URL plus the end of your posted image link since it didn't know how else to handle it.
Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.

This might come as a surprise to other people on the STO forums, but I do have a life outside of STO, so I was catching up with that, in addition to playing the game and playing some other games.
... and binge-watching Netflix. I knocked out all 7 Seasons of Sons of Anarchy in the span of a month.

What is this 'life' of which you speak of?
"Life" apparently is something that involves a human body, holding still and staring at a rectangular space in a living module for hours at a time, while it displays moving pictures of fictional characters that usually behave badly toward authoritative figures and each other, with an occasional display of copulation thrown in to excite the human sex drive.
It also involves placing a lot of different consumable materials into the human mouth, which involuntarily causes the mouth to masticate, and later leads to the expulsion of said materials in much cruder forms, out of orifices located in the lower part of the human body.
When one stops to think about it..., it takes all the fun out of it.

I noticed there is now an option to 'Delete' a post when clicking the gear icon in the upper right corner of your post, the one for editing. I hope this was intentional. Edit: Weird. I have the option to delete a post in the Tribble Patch notes section but not this post here.
Also, after editing a post the red text at the bottom of the post that says "Posted edited by..." it has a (Log) button. Clicking the button takes me to a page that says "You don't have permission to do that". I'm guessing the log button is only for moderators and possibly so they can see the original post before it was edited. Edit: This (Log) button seems to only show on my post in the Tribble patch notes section.

Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!
Hmm........ I think it's the image.... you're trying to link an Arcgames.com image file. It may be set to disallow that.

I guess they're working on the Tribble patch notes section right now and some options are available to us that are probably meant only for moderators.
