Missing Picture

[jackbassv]

Ryoko said it was a shame there's no devil smilie, so I decided to use your picture, cause you said you'd uploaded one.

zips pic is visable in the Members List (unfortunately :lol:), but yours consists of a grey box <_<

Are you the new Man In Grey? :ph34r: :lol:

[Google]

[Sim9]

My picture is a grey box? In my profile? In my avatar?

[jackbassv]

As I said, in the Members List
You can get ot it via the overall top 10 posters :P

You can find Sim's picture if you search the site carefully.

My tip is to use Google and type in "pasty white" :P

Seriously though, his pic is around here, not on the forums though :)

[Zips]

Aztec!!!

Aie... :P

[jackbassv]

Wll, his picture's suposed to be on the members list. cause the icon's there :P

It's still a blank grey box - .......
Are you trying to say something, sim? :lol:

[Sim9]

Hmm, it displays fine for me... 0_o

And yes, my *real* pic is online, but not at forums, or any "official" ea page ;)

SOLUTION

If you have some sort of ad blocking software, be it standalone or integrated into a firewall, disable it and then click on Sim's photo link. It works then.

It's not sim's picture however. Nor is it a picture of the Aztec again (thankfully), nor is it a picture of Ruby in the driver's seat of the Aztec pretending she can drive which Sim thought was cute (whew), nor is it a picture of plain ol Ruby (... yeah).

Aztec picture is nice. Sim is sporting the shades!

Besides, that video of me with the shades is still around on the net somewhere.

The one where you are wearing a lamp shade on your head and nothing but a lamp shade? Where you then proceed to dance with a giant stuffed bear while the rest of the people at the party start throwing up from the sight of that?

That one?

[jackbassv]

I do have ad blocking, but that's not causing the problem, cause all the other pictures show okay :P

This is getting weird :lol:

Just try it. I have ad blocking as well, and the other pictures besides Sim's show up fine with it on. When I turn it off only then can I see Sim's.

Try it... go ahead... ;)

Wow zips, good find... I hadn't even thought of having ruby pretending to drive in the aztek!! *goes to get camera* :D

You're SICK... SICK SICK SICK! :P

[Sim9]

I wonder why it doesn't like *my* picture.... odd... :lol:

[jackbassv]

Found out why ad-blocking blocks your picture :)
It's the size :P
at 250 by 250, it conforms with one of the standard sizes used in web ads :lol:

Change the size, and it'll re-appear :stupid: :P

[Sim9]

lmao, that's right! :lol:

I didn't even think of that. Hmm, but that's the standard size of all profile pics. I guess I can change that size... but bleh.

[jackbassv]

It's things like that, that really piss me off <_<
You can spend days looking for a bug, only to find the error was in a completely different module :angry:

Could be why I alway use inline documentation :lol:

[Sim9]

Yeah, when I took classes, I got high marks, except sometimes my comments are a bit sparse. I tend to comment where I think *I'll* need to remember things, not where other people might trip up. So, while I'll hardly comment common things like linked lists, there will be TONS of comments on blocks of code that display maps, and most noticeably a section where I list out Object Types and their ID's so I don't have to go through things.

I also like to write things down, especially for conceptualizing. So I always have my trusty notepad (a real one), which has sketches, ideas, concepts, etc. One day I'll scan it for EA :D

You didn't sketch Ruby or a certain future Aztek you had a dream about did you? Man... I'll have to find you, slap you upside the head, and just casually leave if you did. :P

[Sim9]

Ruby? She's *probably* in there, but not the Aztek. I've had this notepad for years :D

[Zips]

Well keep Ruby to yourself.... or suffer the wrath of a mysterious "slap upside the head from a stranger." :ph34r:

[Sim9]

Ow. :P

[Sim9]

Err... fixed?
