Yeah, I had to change after one of the last updates (I explained what happened here [Avatar upload failing](https://meta.discourse.org/t/avatar-upload-failing/96880))

I’m gonna write a rake task to update all the images. I wasn’t sure if changing the region could have affected it since it always worked before the other thread.

I will post my gist with my script to update the images in a bit to maybe help others in the future.

Thanks a lot!
