    Forum Update - Avatars

    Just to let everyone know that we have had a change in policy and now no longer allow avatars on the forums that are hosted on external sites. Only avatars hosted on the forums (www.orlando-guide.info) will be displayed against your posts.

    Click here for updated details of how to add an avatar to the forum site.

    Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause a small subset of users with externally hosted avatars, but having externally hosted images is a potential security loophole in the forums that we'd like to permanently close. It's not something for anyone to be concerned about, we're just being pro-active rather than re-active [msnsmile].

    John - it's worth adding too that modern browsers block cross-site images as a default (for exactly the security reasons you describe). I noticed it a while ago when I upgraded my browser that half the avatars didn't display.

    Crikey I've had that little green bouncing ball for years - I've managed to upload an avatar but I don't really like it, any ideas where I can find a better one?
