Hello Cary
I've long had my doubts about the usefulness (because of their unreliability) of these 'new' indicators at Board and Thread level, which is part of the reason I recently removed the graphic from the Thread index. Non-resetting of the flags is related to the route by which you access each message, thread or board, as I tried to explain in the final two Answers in the the Forum FAQ. Do you really find these useful? If so I should try and find a fix, though I've got to say it would have to be a long-term project. If not I might be inclined to remove the indication even at Board level, leaving the user's browser's indication of visited/unvisited -- probably best viewed in the short-form (i.e. long) Recent Posts listing -- to indicate up-to-date status.
As for the moggie -- don't know what's happened there. You mean your Garfield avatar? That's a 32 x 32 px GIF in the avatars subdirectory, and seems to have always been so. You could always link to your own image hosted elsewhere, using your Edit Profile page. Or if you prefer I'll host it on peteatkin.com and send you the link.
