+The A-Team Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) The URL for the Leap Day 2020 thumbnail seems to have suffered from the same recent issue that affected some user image uploads. The URL for this image is currently: https://img.geocaching.com%3A443/0f8190c7-c1f6-468b-88b0-c1cc14567140.png The extra "%3A443" stops it from displaying and will need to be removed. While this is being fixed, there are also two Mega events happening tomorrow (Feb 29), so it might be a good idea to check the URLs for those souvenirs in case they have the same issue. Edit to add: I just realized that the full-size souvenir image has the same problem. Edited February 29, 2020 by The A-Team 1 1 Quote Link to comment
+grimpil Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I just got the Leap Day souvenir & all I got was a box with a blob in one corner! But glad to find it is not just me with what I take to be a glitch that is perhaps site wide. Presume the techies out there will have to do a general fix for this - I would have no idea where to start fiddling around with URLs. A Leap of Faith? A Leap into the Unknown? Quote Link to comment
+rich-c Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I just got the leap day souvenir and mines is not showing the image just a box with a small cross in it Quote Link to comment
+steben6 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Obvious problem with the image, but mine is also showing that it was earned on 2/28. I logged my cache on 2/29 (Leap Day). No way to fix that? Quote Link to comment

I hope they add the artist name back in. Quote Link to comment
+terratin Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 For me the problem has fixed itself and the image is there now. Needed a Shift+F5. But then I needed that an awful lot today. Whenever I tried to open a cache from the browse map after having logged a cache I got an error 500. Only a hard F5 of the map fixed the problem. *shrugs* Quote Link to comment
+grimpil Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Seems to have been fixed. Wonder if the techies get extra pay if they have to fix things on a Leap Day? Mine is dated correctly btw. Quote Link to comment
+The A-Team Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Yes, the Leap Day souvenir images have been fixed. However, I see now that the CITO 2020 Season 1 souvenir has the same problem. Someone at HQ will need to do a search on the image database to find all of the broken URLs, because this clearly wasn't an isolated incident. 1 Quote Link to comment
