The icon change isn't working

Today, I tried to change my icon, but it didn't work!  I tried again with a different image, it still didn't work!  Is there any solution? I'd like to know.

Re: The icon change isn't working

I think the image or animation has to be in .gif format

i think you can use others too. It takes a while for it to load. Give it 5 mins or so.

Re: The icon change isn't working

IF the image appears on ur my stuff page but nowhere else, you could refresh the page by hitting the button to the right of the url address bar that has the 2 green arrows


Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback.                              http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Re: The icon change isn't working

I know how to refresh; the computer I use takes about five seconds to load the picture/animation(well, it did); I know how to load an icon if the system works; I've tried every single type of image format I have an image in:.png,.jpg, and.gif; and the icon doesn't appear on my user page any more than anywhere else(that is to say, nowhere).  All your solutions flattened, and I'm stuck with some tail-swinging Garfield for a user icon.  Oh well, and sorry if I sounded a bit rude.

Yessssss! I changed the open program in the Properties Menu from Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to Internet Explorer, and it worked.
