When did you change it. It takes few minutes to refresh
Have you set one up on Gravatar?

Do you use the same email address for Gravatar and AB?

Maybe your avatar has been deemed inappropriate by the Ed? One was removed recently for that reason. Might be worth emailing the Ed
I'm assuming you used to have an avatar on AB
It says your avatar is banned on your profile is it has been banned.

Have you changed the email address on your profile, if you have it will no longer link to gravatar until you add a matching email address on gravatar.
Good luck smar1

My avatar was only a pic of a couple of jam tarts. Feel it unlikely that Ed would disallow that. I did change my email add in March. Have gone into edit profile to change avatar, but cannot seem to make progress
1. Have you got a gravatar.com account?
2. Are you using the same email address on both?
3. Did you rate the avatar on Gravatar as a G?
The email address used on both sites: AB & Gravatar MUST be identical.
^"didn't change it. I didn't do anything. But suddenly my profile has nric avatar"

When did you avatar disappear on AB? Has it worked at any time since you changed your email address in March
Question Author
Not sure when it changed as I dont log in too often.
You were on AB quite a few times in July. Was your profile showing then?
