User pictures appear as white square

[srynznfyra]

Hi all
In my control panel, in the users section all the user's pictures appear as blank white squares. In the login screen I can see the pictures but I'm wondering why they appear as white squares in the control panel and if it is a bug which can be fixed.

Thank you in advance
Fela

Never noticed that before, but I have the same thing. Its my guess, that if you call it a bug or the way it is suppose to be, I do not think there is a user friendly way to change it.

OK well I'll post if I ever find a solution (of course it's not a pressing issue )

Are these the pictures you are talking about?

I thought it was the screen that showed all the accounts, after selecting manage another account.

Guess you like that pic.

No, that picture does appear. I'm talking about the ones that are supposed to appear on the 'manage another account' page - on that they're all white. They're also white when changing the picture.

You were right that was what I meant.

I think that is what you get with 7. We will see what the other members have to say. For one, even if it is a problem, I am not going to fool with my system to fix it, not worth it to me.

Mine aren't like that, I can't find anything on google either, except your post.:huh:

Do you have several accounts like me. (not guest as Derek has)?

Yes, I have my account (standard user), and the built in admin account which I enabled (default being disabled of course). As I said though, this isn't exactly a pressing matter so I'll leave it for the time being until a solution crops up out of nowhere

I think that it is too much of a conincidence that we have the same problem. Call it a bug, call it normal, but I think that is the way the OS works. I am curious, however. If anyone else comes by with 2 or more accounts, let us know how it looks on your machine.

 

[derekimo]

Well I just created 2 more accounts to see if I would get the same result you guy's are seeing, mine seem to be fine. Just my experience so far.:huh:

 

[richc46]

Yours has to be the one that is working right. I have Windows 7 64 bit, the same as you.
Cant be too important if I did not even notice until now.

Yours has to be the one that is working right. I have Windows 7 64 bit. How about you?

Same as you I think 7 HP x 64.

I cannot do anything more; nothing in Google and I cant check against my system.

Yeah me either, I was just putting my 2 cents in. when I checked google the only thing that came up was this thread.
Maybe someone else can enlighten us.

Cant do much more, but had a thought and I bet this is it. I used WET to tranfer my settings after a clean install. How about your Derek?

No I did a clean install, then a repair install back in december. You might be onto something there Rich.
