Changing default files in FTP not working

[Chef Bryardee]

I'm trying to use custom icons I've created on my forum but, after uploading my custom file into my FTP and swapping it with the original .png file, it's not working.

For instance, I made a .png for "forum_old-48.png", uploaded it and deleted the default one that's in images/statusicon/, but the old icon is still showing on my page. I go to "inspect element" on Chrome, and even Chrome is still showing a preview popup of the .png picture of the default icon even though it's deleted and not on that path.

Any ideas?

Make sure you clear your browser cache and restart the browser. Modern browsers aggressively cache this type of image.

I closed the browser and went back to my page a couple times, but did not clear the cache on the browser. I'll try that.
