    Sorry if this has been mentioned already, but I just discovered that there seem to be new features in the prefs. If I got it right, we are now able to upload our own images and icons from our pc?
    Well, I tried to upload an icon, and all of a sudden all my fields went blank after clicking the save button (description, banner url, etc.). Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
    Gladly I had stored all my stuff in a file and was able to restore it within a second, but still...
    I thought I should warn you, if it is really a bug.

    Well it looks like we get that new feature soon. The layout already shows up now, so we will soon be able to use it. Give it some time, till everything is live - most likely tomorrow.

    No problem, I'll be patient. I was just concerned someone might lose
    his/her profile description because he/her had not saved it in a file.

    Yeah that's still an issue. But people might not read this first and will complain afterwards...
    Oh, that's just life.

    Verrrrry interesting. I didn't know until I read this thread. I'm definitely going to be changing my icon once this feature goes live.

    Custom icons and images. Sweet! I'll be closely monitoring the "go live" on this.

    I guess it's still not quite ready for primetime yet. TV.com should really beta-test features better before foisting non-functioning versions onto the main site.

    Thanks, missribs! It was a good idea to remove the options from the prefs form, some other profiles had been wiped out too. At least we know now that we'll get a personal icon feature.

    Hrm, so it is down apparently again? I'm not seeing it and never did, as I never checked it during the time it was up. I'm sure missribs will keep us fully informed on the latest details, though. Thanks missribs.

    Isn't it fascinating how things get uploaded to the servers, just by accident? And it's certainly not the first time such an accident happens.
    I just ask myself how that can happen over and over again.
