New Avatar System - Bugs & Upgrades
Oh boy, first I have to apologize at all the issues we've been having with the new system. Please rest assured that we are working on these things and will do our best to get them fixed up. We have a good base code and system, it just needs a few solid kicks and probably some stabbing to get it into shape!! okay maybe not stabbing Until then....

Here is a list of known bugs and how you can work around them:

â–º Wonky layering, deleted items returning, saved avatar appearing to reset to previous version? â—„
• In the list of buttons is an arrow/circle button leftmost to Save Avatar. This is a refresh button. If you equip an item and it isn't showing. Refresh. If you save and it doesn't look like the version you saved. Refresh. Basically, if there's any layering issue... Refresh. This, frustratingly, was a cheap work around to whatever is making the avatar go haywire. Until I can have Lyro fix the underlying issue our lives are going to be full of refreshing.

â–º Avatar button is sending you to the index page? â—„
• This one I'm not so sure about, I'm still working with those who have mentioned it to see what we can do to fix it.
For now, if you are having this issue, please go to this thread to chime in.

â–º Not being able to see colors before equipping or see which color you have equipped? â—„
• An unfortunate oversight. We will try to get something in place for the latter ASAP, however color preview might take more doing so that might not be an immediate fix.
However, we do have this nifty little color guide that will hopefully help you out until then!

â–º Avatars not showing for private messages? â—„
• I've brought this issue up to Lyro and he is going to be looking into it once he has a free spot in his work rotation.

â–º Drag and drop not working on mobile? â—„
• Sadly this is going to take a lot more work than it should and so it is on our to do list. In the meantime I apologize to anyone who is on mobile that can't use this feature. We will get it sorted as quickly as possible!

I believe that is everything that's been brought to my attention, though naturally, I feel like I'm forgetting something. If I did miss one, post in the Bug Reports forum. If you are having completely different issues, then post that as well! Thank you all for being so patient. You're the best little test subjects
