Broken souvenir image URL

[+The A-Team]

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.

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?

I just got the leap day souvenir and mines is not showing the image just a box with a small cross in it

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?

That's an odd problem considering the entire purpose of the souvenir was for finds on February 29! That is a pretty design, though!  I hope they add the artist name back in.

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*

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.

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.
