    That happens to me, host it on photobucket or something and use the offsite link, that should fix it...

    It will do that.

    Just set your avcatar to what you want, refresh the page again and it should be fine, mine does it all the time. ;)

    Your old avatar is cached by your browser. When your new avatar replaces the old one, it has the same name, and your browser thinks its the same file, so it uses the older cached version.

    Refreshing (or force refreshing) clears that cache, and loads the new avatar.

    Just to give a little more insight on the problem.
