upon checking on things today it was noticed that one part of my avatar has gone missing
there were originally five parts but now there's four
1 sydney buses addblue vehicle with 49?? fleet number with the "get on board" propaganda on the roof getting burnt with "light rail now!!!!!!!!!" underneath
2 hillbus articulated vehicle getting burnt saying "metro rail now!!!!!!!!" underneath
3 another sydney buses addblue vehicle with 49?? fleet number with the "get on board" propaganda getting the cigarette lighter saying "trolleybus now!!!!!!!!" underneath
4 a wooden tram shaped bus thing well alight with its roof falling off and its bodywork collapsing saying "real trams now !!!!!!!"
and the part in question
5 and a rendition of metro transport sydney's emblem saying "MYZONE NOW !!!!!" instead of metro transport sydney's original lettering
what was incriminating about the rendition of metro transport sydney's logo ???????
it is a valid parody as the light rail line was unfairly excluded from myzone and the proper concessions it offers and is intended to make a mockery of the incomplete myzone coverage and not make fun of the light rail line
and why was it removed ?????? did metro transport sydney catch wind of it and wanted the parody removed from some insidious reason ???????? or did ecotransit get its way and myzone is now accepted making the "myzone now !!!!!!" parody obsolete and whoever edited the picture was doing a flavor ????????
and after closely inspecting the copy its looks like it was rolled back to the previous picture before the "myzone now !!!!!!" was added as it was 100 by 100 pixels but stretched with dimension constraints to make it look as close as possible to the latest edition which was naturally 150 by 150 pixels
if nobody comes up with a good explanation of what happened, the edited picture will be removed and the previous edition saying "MYZONE NOW !!!!!!!!!" will be brought back and the edit will be considered something that happened by accident when the recent outages happened

Geez relax!! You've gone mad!
The board recently had technical problems and some attachments, including some avatars were lost. It's nothing personal...

Re: avatar pictures getting edited without asking ????????
This would likely be correct as while the database was saved (including things such as avatar dimensions), the images (including avatars) were not. Some images (such as avatars) were restored from an old backup.

you are welcome to put up your previous version up on the board at your leisure.tartan wrote:if nobody comes up with a good explanation of what happened, the edited picture will be removed and the previous edition saying "MYZONE NOW !!!!!!!!!" will be brought back and the edit will be considered something that happened by accident when the recent outages happened

avatar picture has now been corrected
apologies for the outburst but the last few days had been kind of unlucky with trying to get a new apple computer ready to use before the end of year vacation, mobile phone problems which were fixed with great difficulty, trying to sell off several old broken hobby helicopters, a close friend moving away and battling a cold
