Profile Picture

I changed my profile picture and while it shows in my profile, it's not changing in my posts.
Going to my profile I see this.

What's going on?
And why do I have to log in to view this image 1 minute after uploading it???

EldonW, there are two pictures. One is a profile picture, which people will see when they visit your user page. Another is avatar, which is what people see when you post in the forum. So, I think you should change your avatar pic.

Thank you Anupam.

Any idea why I have to log in a second time 1 minute after uploading an image to view it?

My pleasure.

No idea about that. I also need to login second time to download the attached image, and that too isn't working properly, I mean the login. I will alert about this issue to the team.

BTW, it's better to upload image on an image hosting site like Imgur and then post the link here.

I am seeing that behaviour too.
I have not figured it out yet. Checked all kind of settings but to no success...
