Title. The gallery's avatars are working fine but custom avatars are not working. Tried it 3 times so far.

Delete your cache, the new file usually has the same name and your browser won't recognise the change.

Seems to have changed itself without me doing anything. Maybe shutting down my computer did it.

You actually can use ctrl+f5 to reload images/scripts and stylesheets. Works 99% of time.

This tho (as well as clearing your cache from settings) will reload the image for you only. All other site users will probably see the old image as it is cached on each of their browsers (until it decides that it should reload image(s)).

Since custom avatar images name is your ID - only thing to do here is save somewhere value which is included when rendering image (as: 12345.jpg?=some_value) when some_value could be the timestamp for example and update it when new avatar gets uploaded. (or find another way to name avatar files)

Another way would be to inject there some value whitch (same way) - for example date formatted (ddMMyyyy) - which would make u free of need to create another column for users. It would then reload avatars for everyone once a day.
