    Yesterday Night while surfing this forum suddenly whole layout got messed up and wired images shown in all forum also inside threads and user avatars, They had also changed Country flags which is shown to premium members. I would like to ask Admin and mods is everything ok now? What was that happened yesterday night?? here are some screenshots i had captured at that time.

    Looks like a glitch, I haven't heard that anything went wrong. Sites like Mashable often do that to me.

    a glitch?? It may change layout but what about that chinese pics, user avatars and all?? I don't think a glitch can replace all images from forum database.

    Were the images replaced or superimposed? In one screen (http://www.faltusite.com/dp/Support.jpg), it appears that the images have been superimposed.

    You are not responsible for what happened. So you really shouldn't be sorry.;)
    Anyway, you can still delete the image. The time limit to edit the post is still not over.
    Thanks @malky66. If this was really my avatar, it would have got me banned immediately.;)

    What was the exact time (and time zone) when this happened? As far as I am concerned, DP was opening as usual yesterday night at my place without any glitches.

    I was surfing DP till 9.30 PM IST (GMT + 5.30) yesterday (6th August, 2014). Don't know if anything went wrong after that.
    Anyway, if this glitch has been done away with now, there's no need to worry any more.

    I was using DP around that time and didn't experience anything like that. However, I have seen something similar to what you're describing on other sites FreeFun4Every1, and I have isolated it down to Google Chrome not displaying the contents of some websites correctly on an intermittent basis.
