Skype Symbol

[AC0RV]

I noticed that the Skype symbol that show either I am on or offline is broken.

Now is that something I can fix ?

Looks fine to me.

It may be a Chrome thing as I see this...

Been broken for years, for me:

When I right-click it and choose Open Original Image in New Tab, I'm told the DNS record for mystatus.skype.com can't be found.

EDIT: per Kevin, I too am using Chrome, with uBlock Origin running. Turning the ad-blocker off makes no difference.

Mike I tried my Edge and it shows an x for the symbol and on the Chrome shows a broken symbol.

I'm not sure exactly what the link is supposed to look like but Firefox and Safari both seem to display it properly. Chrome and IE both show a broken link.

Did some Googling and found this thread: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/for...ing/4340126-skype-image-not-loading-on-forums

Basically the API to tell if you're online changed and the vbulletin developers aren't going to fix it.

I've changed the settings so now all you'll see is the Skype logo.

BIG Thanks and sorry to have troubled you.

I wish you and your Happy New Year.
