my avatar has been censored

Chinesepod seems to have taken exception to my avatar which has disappeared.

Actually I am not alone - even Amber's has gone.

Incidentally yet another odd bug - (perhaps it is not new) I have noticed that on each entry for a lesson conversation it claims it to be 'elementary'.

More 'routine maintenance'?

Following on my last comment above - I now see that there has been a partial upgrade/change so that you can now see how long ago the last post was. So I suppose the 'Elementary' error mentioned above was not noticed in the testing - assuming that there was any testing (my cynicism comes from experience of previous changes and an impatience with the technical quality side of Chinesepod). In case I get pilloried for criticism, let me say that I remain a huge fan of the academic team.

MikeinEwshot: Good point, what happened here? Oh by the way, in the Mobile version of Chinesepod the error we were having for the past month still exists. in the "My Conversations" the name of the person who posted last is STILL always my name.
