Weird Icons
5 years ago
Right, I've banged my head against the desk about this for long enough and its time to Ask The Audience.
I posted my first story - Schools Out - on here nine years ago. How the time flies! And when I uploaded the icon for it a little while later, it was weird: it displayed too small in some menus, which was annoying because I'd written some tags on it for viewers information (so they'd know what they were reading before they opened it) and the compressed size made it hard to read.
Well, after almost a decade - I've lived with this problem for nine years - I posted another story relating to that ancient one. Now is the time to fix that icon, said I! So I tried reuploading it - I still had it somewhere - and bam, just like that... Schools Out doesnt seem to have an icon at all.
Wonderful!
So my question to you, O Readers, O Followers: ...anyone know why? I dont want to delete and reupload the whole post, I just want to fix the icon. Anyone have any thoughts? Anyone run into a similar problem ever, and what made it go away? :)

And there is a "Change Thumbnail" button for it, too.
I think the direct link is https://www.furaffinity.net/control.....bnail/6174369/
(I used that button before, tried it again just to be sure and I still see Image Not Found, alas. Thanks for the suggestion anyway though.)
They appear to be stored in different locations, if you check the URL for the images. You may need to open a bug/ticket or ask on the forum. Or re-submit the story. :/
When I look at the personal page listing the statistics for my different posts, I actually see the icon image full size, and that is stored in a third different URL location again. All very odd!
I shall have to meditate upon my options. Thanks for the input! :)
