    Litte Red X

    I've noticed that I (along with Freelander Sporrano, Cajunscot, and McMurdo) all have a little red X beneath our title bars. It appears to be a directory of some sort and clearly a misplacement. I've right clicked and explored the details and I see: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/clip/??.gif

    Hi Bradley,
    Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I do not see the little red x's. I see each appropriate title bar. But perhaps it has something to do with your computer and how it sees the graphics on the site.
    The little red x is usually seen when a graphic did not load correctly or is not available.
    I will look into it and let you know what I find out.

    It's definitely not my computer. I can see it from my Macbook, my Dell desktop in my office, and my Dell laptop at the lab.

    Oh, to note, I see it as a blue question mark on my Macbook but see the same address when explored.

    I also just checked and I get the blue question mark on my iPod Touch and a little grey square on my Palm Pre.

    Bradley,

    As I don't see the red X's could you give me some help.

    Do you see the appropriate title bars and the red X's underneath them as if there should be a second graphic, or do you see the red X's in place of the title bars?

    Interesting, I've just logged on at work and find a lot of members with little X's under their title. Seems to be an Internet Explorer issue as I never see them at home where I use Firefox.

    Sometimes these little graphics are stored locally on the computer, and when they move places on the site can cause this issue. I have found either empting the cache or using cntl-f5 (in windows) solves the issue.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Interesting thoughts guys. But, like I mentioned, I'm seeing this from two Windoze machines (both using IE) my Macbook (using Safari) my iPod Touch (Safari) and my Palm Pre (WebOS) so I really don't think it's a browser issue I'm afraid.

    I notice Ted and Cessna both have it as well.
