Geocache icons on cache description page

[+BiT]

Just noticed this on a cache I just downloaded to my CO. I downloaded an Earthcache but the cache icons appears as a blue question mark rather than the Earthcache icon. With the new firmware update it now shows on the map also as a blue questionmark. Is this something that Groundspeak needs to fix because it looks like that is the way the info was sent. Note: I used the send to GPS button on cache page.

So the caches now show up on the map, but it is the wrong icon? It sounds like a step in the right direction. This may be a little off topic, but I was wondering if the cache descriptions load relatively quickly?

 

Thanks!

Mount your GPS disk and use a text editor to open the GPX file for that cache. You should be able to easily tell if the GPX file or the Colorado is at fault. I'm guessing it's the latter. If it's only Earth caches that are messed up, it would be too big a deal for me.

It seems to be just the earthcache icons as I tested the rest and they all appear correctly.

 

However caches I have found don't appear as a smiley, instead they appear as the cache icon.

All the cache icons on my map show up as a little baseball. Any way to change that? anyone else have that issue?

I got an email back from Groundspeak yesterday that basically said thanks for the heads-up. My question, are they going to fix it?

I haven't heard of anyone having this problem. It is the start of spring training, maybe it's an easter egg put in by one of the developers that is a baseball fan?
