Profile photos fading in and out

Profile photos on my site just started "blinking" or fading in and out at a regular like 2 second interval and some of them start out halfway cropped off on the right side of the profile photo box but then move over to the correct position in the middle of the profile photo box. What caused this and how can I get it back to normal? Thanks

I forgot to add that at the bottom of the browser window it continuously reads "transferring data to www.myartfriends.com..." and never changes to "Done". What gives?     Thanks

What version of Dolphin are you using???

if it is version 6.1.4 then what you have is 'normal' if you want to change it back do a search on this forum and you will find this has been addressed before.

I'm using version 6.1.4. I did a search on this subject before I posted this topic, but I couldn't find this particular issue. Maybe I did not use the correct search words. If "blinking" is normal, then why did it just start happening after 1 month of not "blinking"? Actually I don't really mind the fading in and out look myself.

And what about the "transferring data to www.myartfriends.com... never changing to "Done" at the bottom of the browser window?

Thanks Stuart038

I think MrP has a solution to the 'blinking' you could also ask him about the transferring problem. All the best,

Uh, I searched for "MrP" and could not find such a member in the forum search or member search.

I figured it out, it was something I changed in advanced settings - New Gallery Feature for Profile Photos. Sorry for all the posts.

Um do you not realise that if you have more than 1 pic it will be showing a slideshow?

See my post asking about how to Control Slideshow on Profiles

It is an important problem that needs an answer !

I did not even know that the slide show option was available. Like I said, I checked "New Gallery Feature for Profile Photos" in advanced settings, not knowing what it would do. I only looked at a couple of member profiles and they all happened to only have 1 photo and it was fading in and out. I panicked, I thought I screwed something up. I'm a novice at this, but all in all I have to say that for somebody that doesn't know jack about this stuff, my site is running smoothly and I'm having fun with it.

Maybe I'll change it to the slide show version, but the 1 photo blinking is a little annoying so I think I'll use the default setting of no slide show. But I like your idea of being able to have more controls for the slide show.

Thanks for all the help.

I would have to suggest in the future when you change something instead of 'panicking' and posting to simply go back and reset whatever you changed  .....  your own question of why would it start doing it when it didn't do it before should have been a clue  .....  (did I do thaaaaaaaat?)

Hey guys.

Mr Powless posted a fix in reply to one of my other posts.

This will stop the single profile pictures fading in and out.

In the file profilePhotos.php, around line 353 is this line:

if ($bUseFeature) {

change it to:

if ($bUseFeature && (count($this->aMedia) > 1)) {


Very useful !
