So today I'm using my laptop instead of the Ipad, the avatar is not there. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox. But the avatar shows up on the Ipad.

When you're in your browser press Shift-F5 (hold shift key and press F5 function key). This will clear the browser's cache of this page and then reload it. Check to see if the icons now appear.

If that does not work, on the top bar in Firefox select 'Tools' then 'Options' and select the 'Privacy' tab. On that page click the check-box where it says 'Clear History When Firefox Closes' and then click the 'Settings' button and check the boxes shown in the photo below. Close all your Firefox windows, give it a minute or two and then reopen Firefox and try to view this page again.

Let us know if either one of these solves your problem, please.

See your doctor if your avatar malfunctions for more than 4 hours...

4 hours ... :D

So I cleared my cache on Firefox down to zero, and yes, the avatar is back.

Thanks.

:D
