"2.5 out of 5"

[+the hermit crabs]

I noticed today on a couple of cache pages with a 2.5 rating for either Difficulty or Terrain, the text "2.5 out of 5" is displayed rather than the image of two-and-a-half stars. (Others that I looked at seemed okay, though I didn't check every value from 1 through 5.)

Image broken? Overload on Image?

If I try to look at the 2.5-star image file directly, I get this message:

 

"The image “http://www.geocaching.com/images/stars/stars2_5.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors."

 

edit: that happens in Firefox 1.5.0.6. But it's okay in IE 6.

Works fine in my FireFox.. 1.5.0.6

Works fine in Opera 9.

Try reloading the page without using the stored cache. (Should be Shift+Ctrl+R I think?) If the image was just downloaded with an error, the bad version may be cached and downloading it again might solve the problem.

I use Firefox exclusively.

Do you get this message with other graphics?

That fixed it. Thanks!
