Last week, when replying to an LJ post by
carinbrat, I noticed a weird bug - my knitting icon was showing as a completely other picture of some kind of sports coach blowing a whistle. It showed this in my picture page as well. I left it alone assuming some kind of pointer had been mixed up somewhere and would get fixed.
But just now I noticed in a comment stream to
red_ervish that another one of my userpics was wrong - my "joco close" was now some kind of Pokemon. I went to my userpics page again, and not only those two but my bellydancer pic were all replaced with something completely random.
I changed my LJ password and reuploaded the userpics - luckily the ones that were replaced were ones I could recreate easily. Don't know if I was being slowly hacked or what, but that was weird. And luckily, it looks like deleting a userpic but then recreating one with the same name seems to relink old posts and comments. So no lasting harm done.
