QA Update: Fix restored 99% of the profile images with success.

Why am I not surprised? Because, when true professionals are at work, they don't do >critical< changes on day 1, or second 1. And I had the impression, by just reading @aFrInaTi0n's messages regarding this issue, that these were indeed critical. Professionals think it over. Make announcements that it may take some time.

And then, when they come to a conclusion ... they simply hit it home. Being as nervous as anyone would be, when they had to cut one out of the two wires, either letting the bomb go off or simply stop the countdown timer. Maybe I watched too many James Bond movies, I know, but I have been in these "I thought crossing the streams was bad" situations more than once.

Thank you very much Christoph for doing all this for us!

All the best, and have a nice weekend

Hehe, again thanks for the nice words Thorsten! But yeah, was basically another week of quality rethinking before applying... did not find the right spot which allowed enough buffer for more unforseeable things.. but today has been the day. In the end the solution was quite simple & applying it took less than 30 minutes. But could not be more happy in the end it worked out as planned.

@aFrInaTi0n I just noticed a lot of profile images appear to be broken again. Just letting you know!

Still working in my main job, if you can link dome profiles it would help me later checking more fastly. But consider this requeat just optional, will take looks anyways & thanks for the report.

ehhhhwwwww, seems some graphics was put under the star wars theme folder & is missing from the other named location of the default theme..

if you find some user with the effect, please test if changing the theme to the star wars theme may bring back the graphics.

Actually, changing it to any theme other than the main one fixes it.

Mainly the generic user icon is in the star wars theme but not in the main theme folder - funnily I did change nothing in the last days in regards to the storage backends.

Believe I have: It may have to do with me enabling the Star Wars theme - but still not understanding the poor reasoning of putting user pictures into any theme-related paths.. sometimes I can not understand the thoughts of the vendors' developers..

But I found also some other profiles with not working user profile pictures.. need to dig further.

Fixed the Guest user icon with manually copying the file to the right location.
