Rotation code not working on forum?

Any rotating codes for avatars do not work on our forum WCRPG.
http://warriorcatsrpg.com [nofollow]

They load, and while the load bar at the bottom is still loading (Waiting for www.warriorcatsrpg.com [nofollow] displays) they are visible for an instant, then as soon as it's fully loaded the entire page, all rotation avatars disappear.

-Some people can still view them properly, and others cannot.
-The rotations themselves are hosted on different sites - none of them work, so it's not just one site having issues.
-Rotating codes in signatures still work, just not in avatars.

I really need some help as to how to fix this problem, any helpful suggestions are appreciated.

I know next to nothing about rotating codes, but I'm curious about one thing...

It may be nothing, but you list your site as http://warriorcatsrpg.com yet the loading message says "waiting for www.warriorcatsrpg.com". 

Is "www" hard-coded in, anywhere?  Since your site defaults back to no "www", perhaps that might be an issue?

Again, it might be nothing.  I was just curious as to whether changing it might help.

This is odd. Using the first link http://warriorcatsrpg.com  your forum loads first time here using IE8 in Compatability mode and once loaded the address doesn't change.

Hmm - I may well have made a mistake about the address in the load bar, Gb, it may not have a www. in it. No, testing it I was mistaken, no www.

I'm not sure what that means Yogi, about the loading?

I'm doing a member poll now and I also tested it in IE vs firefox, and in IE they seem to display! So could that be a firefox setting, perhaps? But they always used to work fine on my firefox, they stopped all of a sudden.

I'm only glancing in, Chris, because I'm helping with an upgrade, but try it with Opera which is very similar to Firefox and that might help reveal if it's a browser thing. Firefox is a fine browser but I have to admit that mine has gone a bit wonky, lately, as far as images, etc., are concerned.

I appreciate the help gbsothere :)

I can do that - try Opera -  but I really need to find a solution that doesn't involve members switching their browsers entirely. It seems so weird it would just stop working entirely when it used to be fine via firefox.

Can we get a link to a post where a user has a rotating avatar?
