Avatars?

I've recently installed a new hard drive so I don't know if this is just my PC or not but I'm not seeing any avatars displayed under posters' names, in the forum threads. When I go to a poster's profile, it shows up just fine under "Avatar:" but I'm still not seeing them in the threads themselves.So are they still visible to other users? If so, can anyone suggest what I may need to change, to fix this? It took me ages to get all of the settings back the way I like them, after installing my new hard drive and it's quite possible there are others that I still haven't restored to their previous configurations. Any suggestions?Thanks in advance for any help!
