Avatar keeps moving?

Dec

2011

I've noticed lately when logged in and using my forum (in IE) that when reading a topic, the avatar keeps shifting to the right and obscuring part of the message? I refresh the page which 'solves' it temporarily, but I shouldn't have to do this every time I read a seperate topic?

It looks as below when this occurs;-

Although viewing in this link it seems ok (not logged in)

Thanks

Hi anyone?

Could this be a known or previously solved Forumotion problem that I couldn't find in the archives?

Do you have any CSS or scripts you are running on your website that could be causing this problem?

Hi Empire, thanks for replying.

I have a CSS stylesheet but have not made any changes to it for ages, and it's been fine with no apparent cause?

It seems to have just happened. The only thing I've done at all was install a Firefox add-on (Scrapbook Plus) but can't see how that's connected?

I've just registered and logged onto your site to see what's going on, and I'm not experiencing your issue.

Perhaps your problem has something to do with the browser you are using?
Try IE or Chrome perhaps.

And also, ask members if they are experiencing this issue.
Again, for me, your forum is showing up fine Wink

Hmm, ok, thanks for that.

I use Firefox with the IE switch tab (for that site only) as there's plenty of pics and can be slow with FF. With FF alone it's fine for me, too!?

I wonder if it's the IE switch add-on that's conflicting?

EDIT- I should add that this happens only on the topic pages, when reading posts- not the homepage!

Well, IE is very buggy and is the worst browser option of the many browsers available. Older versions of IE are even worse, as they don't even support many codes/scripts.

If the avatar problem occurred after you added the IE switch add-on, then it is possible that it is the source of the problem.
I went to my own Firefox browser and your website appears fine also Wink

Ok, thanks. No-one else has reported it so it might just be me! Very Happy

Does anyone else tinker with their sites and PC's too much? Embarassed

Thanks again, Empire! Much appreciated.

Actually it is happening while reading pms using IE... I always test my forum in most used browsers but IE is the only one that keeps getting this error...

I have a test forum too and I check everything there too... I deleted everything and reset everything back to default back that happens at all the times... please help

thanks !
