How do I get my custom avatar to show?
I don't know why, but the custom avatar that I picked is not being viewed by other users. However, I see it just fine. Could this have to do with signing in through Google?

See my answer at your other question. But for everyone for who has this problem, I will just paste it here anyway:
You have the white figure in the gray shadow. No, your custom avatar isn't showing to us (if that's what you're asking since I've seen other people ask this it probably is the problem you're having.)
Comment:
No worries. I think the avatars from the questions and answers come from different parts of the server or database than the comment avatars because your avatar shows up in the comment. You can't get a person's profile popup when you hover over their comment avatar. And when comments were new, if you clicked on somone's avatar you ALWAYS got the "GULP!" suspension page even though you knew they were not suspended.
This tells me there is a problem in the part of Yahoo!'s service interfering with avatars and it's not somehting you can fix. Otherwise your comment avatar would not show up.

Why does my Avatar only show up here and nowhere else, like on the Comments to Yahoo articles? Doesn't work in Internet Exploder or FireFox, so I know it's not browser specific.
