Change Picture needs a warning... perhaps?
-
Change Picture = catastrophe.
I've just spent an age writing about 1300 characters into my About Me box. I clicked "Change Picture" as a I thought it would just pop up a box or something asking me to load one or pick one. Instead it took me to a completely different page and when I tried to go back, it said I was trying to access a page that I was denied access to.
So having learned the lesson the hard way and for the sake of the sanity of others, could a warning be added that says "Changing your picture will leave this page, do you want to save your changes before you leave?" when you click that button?

@LeeC2202 I second your opinion.
-
Further to this, I have no idea what is actually happening with my forums profile... here's what I do.
I select Profile > Edit Profile, click on Change Picture and it takes me to the Edit Profile page for the main site.
Is there some cross-linking issue between profiles? @rappo
-
@LeeC2202 Yeah, this may be an issue or the feature to have two different profile pictures is removed...
-
@Akila_Reigns I'm not sure because my main site profile now has a picture but on the forums, I'm an orange square... which given the colour of my hair, some might deem appropriate.
-
@LeeC2202 I'm sure @rappo will fix this..
I want to update mine too.
-
I did the same about a week ago. I have no idea how to update my forum avatar to be the main website's one!
-
Basically the issue is that I'd like to have the profile picture be updated in only one place, which is the main website. There's currently a bug where it doesn't get carried over when you change it (only the first time you ever visit the forums). @LeeC2202 and @DazRave I've updated your forum avatars in the meantime. I can also look into adding an alert when I fix that bug.
