So - after many years I got the urge to change my avatar. Picked it out, squared it to fit. At 57K, the .jpg probably met the <500K criterion.
Nothing happens. Ignoring Einstein's advice, I repeated the same task expecting different results (insanity had firmly gripped me long ago).
So, what's the secret?

It now looks like the Mad Hatter instead of a Panopticon device.

Thanks - it did finally get through. Something new (compared to the years ago when last updated): it seems to now be cached.
The Panoptican? It came directly from the deep within the Gallifreian Matrix.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with that.

The "Panoptican" is the central meeting place of the Time Lords on Gallefrey.[^]. It's quite important and is referenced (on the linked page) on the right-margin blurb as "Notable:"

This reminded me of our old Maths master at Senior School - he was blind in one eye, but we students could never remember which one, and we never knew in which direction he was looking (he was a "master" at camouflaging it too!)
Best behaved class in school

Having developed cataracts (awaiting surgery), I am experiencing more difficulty reading web sites and some apps as time passes - both on my desktop and phone.
Some web sites allow for this by providing a "Dark/High Contrast Setting/Theme". The browsers themselves have such settings but they don't obviously affect the vast majority of sites visited. Google actually does a fairly good job in this regard.
Thanks for considering this suggestion.
Cheers,

or am I wrong?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

It's been replaced with a more subtle co-founder badge.
I'm a quiet, shy kinda guy
the admin badge on the message means this is an official, gold stamped, yes we're actually going to do it and it's not just me speaking for myself, thing.

It appears to be missing a <title> tag in the header.
Easy enough to fix.
Thanks.

See my answer in the forum for the survey.
It is multi-select. With a small bit of a check.

I can see two styling problems in `margin-top` vs. `margin-bottom`:
1. In the <pre> the gaps between paragraph before <pre> is greater than after </pre>. It should be the other way around, or at least the caps could be equal.
2. The margins between a header and other paragraphs are equal. In correct styling, the gap between a header and next paragraph should be visibly smaller than the gap between a header and a previous paragraph.
Thank you.

The entire CodeProject stylesheet is currently being reworked using Bootstrap.
