In summary: cache.:smile:You need to clear your cache. The New Images have the same reference (in same directory) and name as the old ones. So when you visited here before the change you would have downloaded a local copy of the old badges. If you do a couple of reloads on the page it may force it to download the new image, if that doesn't work you need to clear your... cache.

So, will we have some recognition for former Gurus?

Congratulations to all of the gurus,

...lost by one vote (13 versus Bystanders 14), these award events were always fun and the "Other Sciences" award (otherwise known as the "Chemistry" award...well, now it is) ultimately went to the much more qualified individual. Ahh well, I shall now hang my shining banner (saved it, yes, I'm that vain) with the memory of good times.

Kudos to all who won, and to all those who keep this forum going.

I'm flattered to have been selected for the physics award, and thank those who voted for me. pervect is a great choice.
Regards,
Reilly Atkinson

I just finished a post and saw the banner pop up under my name. Boy is this wierd. I must say I am a bit uneasy seeing the word "guru" next to my name. I am definitely not used to such accolades. It really is hard to believe considering the others that were nominated as well.
Well, get used to it mate - you deserve it. :-p :approve: :biggrin:

Congratulations to all the nominees whom I consider gurus and mentors in the true sense of the words.

And Thanks to all who contribute to PF and make it the great place that it is. :!) o:) :-p :cool:

Now I'm totally confused, and I can't blame the beer because I saw it before I got drunk. I see no banners for Fred, Older Dan, or Pervect, and I see an 'Engineering Guru' banner for Astro. Isn't that Fred's, and Astro has 'Community Spirit'? C'mon now... I can't be that pissed; an ugly girl just walked by under my window and she still looked ugly. The beer goggles haven't cut in yet, so I must be okay.

Clear your browser's cache and reload the pages. They will clear up. It was doing weird things for me too before I did that.

I think a similar badge saying "fomer XXX Guru 2005" would be nice. It

I didn't know we even had XXX gurus!

I guess there are some Marlon films I haven't seen yet.

What? I always thought that dirty talking was forbidden here. :biggrin: :-p

Edit: a badge saying "future XXX Guru 2007" would be nice, too. :biggrin:

Thanks very much for the honored status. Somehow a whole year slipped by without my noticing, and I missed out completely on the awards, not even realizing I was in it, until something new popped up on my logo. I still wasn't sure what it was, as I thought it a given that Matt is undisputed math guru.

I accept with pleasure and pride however. Thank you.

I surmise some people appreciated the thread on becoming a mathematician, as I do not really help as much with the everyday problem and topic advice as do Matt, Hurkyl, Halls, and many others.

Obviously we are all in great debt to the people who actually keep the site running, who are ineligible. It is thanks to them we are here.

I note that like W, I won with a minority of votes cast. also unlike his, it was a plurality.

Congratulations to all the winners. Much deserved.

Also, thanks to all the the staff for making PF work. Without their effrots, I'd have to find another, less enjoyable, way to procrastinate. :biggrin:
