Lessons learned on restoring AVs. I was AV-less and not able to upload any of several old AVs I have used before. I tried a few things. Basically, if this is happening to you, you can't upload the same image as was previously used.

What worked for me: I changed the color of a pixel and re-saved. Then it uploaded fine.

What did not work: Changing the file name.

What I did not try #1: Saving the same image as a new file. Possible changing the creation date might be enough.

What I did not try #2: Saving as a different format. Mine are all jpg, but maybe png or some other extension would work.

Well, no it looks like I can upload any of my old AVs without modification. So, either.

1) after you load a new av, you can then upload any of your old, previously blocked avs.

or

2) the problem has been fixed.

Odds are #1. But, what do I know.
