When I try to change the icon of a folder, it shows only the image file type —not the image itself.
This has never happened before. I am wondering why and how to fix it!
Thanks!

Switch back and forth and see if it makes a difference.
Does the "x" only appear in replies with links?
I hadn't thought of that possibility. I'll have to start paying attention to that possibility. I thought about looking through some of the recent threads to see if that pattern shows up but it's hard to tell since I've already cleaned up some of the affected threads.Does the "x" only appear in replies with links?
That's what I thought when I first noticed this problem. Then I noticed three things that leads me to think it's not a signature issue:Hmmmm..........
Edit - I thought the "x" was just a character in the signature.
I'll put a link here, the same one Sly did, to see if an x appears: Customize folder on Mac OS Catalina, High Sierra, EI Capitan: Set Picture as Folder icon – HowToiSolve
EDIT: Nope, no x
That's what I thought when I first noticed this problem. Then I noticed three things that leads me to think it's not a signature issue:
1. When I check my forum preferences there is no "x" in the signature included there. Just the Kevin Durant quote.
2. A member's signature appears on all that members posts but the "x" only appears on some of my posts and not others.
3. Signatures appear at the bottom of a member's posts with a faint gray line just above it (see Charlie's signature for example). In my case the signature appears there, as it should, but the "x" appears just below the main body of my post if it's going to appear at all.
I see the "x" in my signature finally showed up - so that took a while.
Slydude - maybe it would make sense to start a separate thread just for testing purposes.
That way things are a bit more controlled.
