Someone else has my avatar by accident?

Hi all, as a recently joined newbie I claim my right to say this seems like an excellent place to hang out. However, there's one potential bug here. I uploaded my avatar and for some reason it appeared instantly in fnordpojk's profile. I only happened to notice it when browsing the recent threads and was quite surprised to see the exact same image there.

Not that I have anything against someone else using this excellent TAC-2 picture as avatar, but this seems like a bug to me. Ignore me, if fnordpojk happened to be online at the same time, clicked on my profile and selected the same picture as his avatar.

*fumbles around with links for a while*
Well now, this might be just a huge coincidence. The pictures don't have the same links and diff claims they differ. I snatched mine two days ago from the 'net and converted it to 70x80 px, just like fnordpojk's picture...

My apologies, if the latter is the case.

Theres is a 1 pixel size difference - put it down to an amazing coincidence.

It's a nice avatar but I would suggest you take another one. Just to avoid confusion.

Now in the morning light it does seem like a coincidence, but at the time I was sure some script or another wasn't behaving.

Yeah, I'll get another avatar.
