As far as I can tell, you can't. But Blizzard has announced that they will be putting something in place for users to do that in the next few days. Keep an eye on your B.Net email.

I had the same problem with Chrome on Mac (Version 20.0.1132.57), but found that if I changed the color (in any way) the logo appeared. So it is rendering the image eventually. No idea if that helps with finding a solution.

TL;DR version: an after-the-fact account of how a man counterfeited millions all in the pursuit of "art". It makes for a romantic story, if nothing else -- although it certainly is not as sexy as the Leonardo DiCaprio/Tom Hanks Catch Me If

Even intelligent people that know the meaning of the word will make this mistake when writing casually. The English language would be much better off if we removed the word "literally" from it. Or, I suppose, if we all just decided to accep

Good point. I've been worried about Kutcher too, but I forgot how much everyone doubted Eisenberg's ability to play Zuckerberg. Sorkin proved himself; Eisenberg proved himself; hopefully Kutcher will too. Thanks for the reminder.

It seems that we need to have a conversation about truth, art, and the space between the two. Just because it happened doesn't mean it is worth telling. Just because it happened doesn't mean that it will sell. Just because it happened doesn

It's "tire" in Canada, but our Commonwealth status has stopped meaning anything at all. We owe more to our American cultural ties than to our historical monarchy and our tendency towards UK English. Source: my entire life and, I suppose, h

The real question is if Lego produces more blocks than a brickyard. Or people than a... maternity ward? Nope, you're right. It is kind of silly although maybe Lego somehow uses it as a point of advertising pride.

I do not pretend to understand very much of the original post. The TorrentFreak "translation" did make it a bit more clear, but I'm pretty much boiling this down to, "somebody is trying to poison the Internet -- if not now, then sometime so

I would absolutely love to stand on the surface of Mars or see Alpha Centauri with my own eyes, but I also know that such things are outside of my grasp. Poets and philosophers make for lousy explorers. It is enough for me that we, as a spe

I get caught up in the romantics of this. We could be explorers again like Magellan or Shackleton, this time charting the vast, infinitude of the stars. We could see planets and moons that are but specks in a telescope. It has been so easy,

I don't particular agree with the "visit other countries" sentiment, because I have not been convinced that traveling inherently leads to challenging your own ideas -- in fact, most people seem to come back pointing to experiences that conf

Not that I disagree, but the argument against this is often: consumers are idiots. Most people have no idea about the finer details of "problems" like this one and so will completely ignore it when making their purchase. If the iPhone meets

So you have a source for this? It sounds equal parts insane and amazing. Certainly adds to the Valve mythos though.

I think we all know that spice coffee is only brewed and enjoyed in the comfort of the sietch. When you're deep on the sand dunes, the only thing you are drinking is your own refiltered urine. Although now I want to see a study on coffee sp

It certainly is possible to work full time and school full time, although I have not meet many people who are able to do both well. It requires a great deal of commitment and drive to be an excellent employee while being an excellent studen
