Sorry to report what you've probably already seen, but some Usernames are now appearing as broken images that read: "Username's icon" (Example, "Kamako's icon").
Example attached. Will keep refreshing in case it's just my end.

Same here. Only appears on members with special styles.

I've tried to fix this.
There was an update but was a beta and actually didn't work well so I had to restore things from backup.
Reverting to backup worked. Thanks for fixing it so quickly.
 
This may have been complete coincidence when I did it, but I changed my style settings, saved them then changed them back to whatever I had them as and that seemed to work for me.
 
Same is happening to me, not with everyone just with certain users
 
I've yet to run into this issue.
 
The style addon is updated again.
This time it's working fine, and many of non-working features are working now. (including custom username icons)

However, a side effect of it is that some users have gained a non-existent username icon. (Possibly users who tried this feature in the past)

Like the Octopus said, the fix is rather easy:
Those users should change their Username style (like color or something), and save.
Of course they can revert the change afterward if they want.

So we ask every user who is affected by this issue to do the same.
 
Not sure if it's the same thing, but something's happening now that seems to match what's reported on this thread.

For example Amag0k1's post here: https://retrogametalk.com/threads/pal-50hz-or-ntsc-u.9688/#post-207879

or Samatonic's posts like: https://retrogametalk.com/threads/pixel-trivia.2066/post-212659

Also some weirdness in mentions to Samatonic in my notifications.

EDIT: what do you know... now that I post this here, I see the weirdness in my own post under my avatar ::cirnoshrug
I was having that problem, but didn't wanted to tell, thinking that it might be a problem from my side, I was trying to add an icon to the front of my name. Thank you for bringing it to the light though. ::thank-you

Update: I've found another one as well

Sorry @NobodyHere, you need to be treated as well.
