I tried posting a reply on another thread - after hitting "send" it just sat there with the progress bar about a third of the way across so I left the room to make toast. When I returned my reply was still "sending". Did an escape to stop it then hit "send" again & it went as normal. Except...my avatar was missing. I went to My Profile & clicked on "Update Avatar" & my picture appeared on my messsage! So now I'm going to do a restart...I've been having to do that when the board gets slooow!!
