No idea. We don't have any control over that. I can delete offensive ones but I can't change them.

The only thing I can think of is if you were using a site to store your image and it went down maybe that would do it, but that doesn't make sense either because it wouldn't change the picture it would just not show an image at all.
If you figure it out let me know! I'm really curious now too.

That’s just bizarre.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.
It appears US voters hated Woke more than they hated Trump.

I see Castanet has a new sign in option where you can use Facebook.

Did you happen to use that? Maybe it changed your Avatar if you did.

Nope. Have not used the the other sign in options. Only my user name and password.

Do you see me as me or carton me?
