Getting a graphic error under some posters

[Adam Jensen]

Best described in a picture:



This is with google chrome. I didn't see it in Firefox, but I haven't gone to check either. Not sure what it is, but its some image that isn't loading right and is interfering slightly with the posts. I've seen it occur under a number of posters. Not sure if its only moderators.

I'm having this problem too, for almost two days now.

That's the Skype icon, I don't know why but it's not showing up and it shows that awful bar instead.

I've tried several browsers and it seems to be affecting Chrome only, though I don't know why. >.<

The reason is simple: the url used to load the icon (online, offline, busy, etc) is no longer valid: http://mystatus.skype.com/smallicon/{skype-name-here}

Also I should add that the reason it only happens in chrome is that it doesn't see the image as 404, thus doesn't show the alt message instead.

Yeah, it's a Skype issue that we see periodically, unfortunately.

I've turned off the status-checking -- it should show only the skype icon without status now.
