A chat from the other day copied to MM "Member: Im having issues setting my profile pic again(6:19pm) Member: Oh sorry no it was just a slight delay(6:20pm) Member: All good(6:20pm) Me: wb(6:22pm) Member: Smile(6:25pm) Me: Odd, you have a new pic here, but on your profile it's blank(6:28pm) Member: Huh. It was Ok a few minutes ago(6:30pm) Member: If I go to Profile -> Preferences then it's all good(6:32pm) Member: but elsewhere its blank(6:33pm) Member: They point to two different url's(6:35pm) Me: If you go to 'edit profile', you can select your profile pic(6:36pm) Member: So ultimately, it worked the first time I tried it, but I have to then go to edit profile and hit save without actually changing anything.(7:26pm) Me: What worked first time?(7:35pm) Member: I just viewed the photo in my gallery and hit the make profile pic link(8:02pm) Member: It worked here, the profile edit page showed it OK, but it appeared blank elsewhere until I went back to edit profile and hit save(8:02pm) Me: Ah, gotcha(8:09pm) Me: I believe any and all profile changes have to be saved to take effect(8:16pm)"
Response from MM "Ah, that's probably true. I added that link for convenience years ago and never added a cache dump to the function Fixing that now."

I have been trying to understand what causes this but if anybody else has some input that would be greatly appreciated.
Yes was actually thinking it would be a cool feature for you be to be able to have a new profile picture every time you log in from an album of your choice that rotates with each log in.
