Strange Symbol Appearing on My Stat Page
-
It’s hard to explain unless you see the picture, so I am including the link to the post I did on it.

It’s a strange symbol that resembles the ‘N’ symbol I have adopted for my profile image. It shows up where the new post symbol is, and when I move my mouse toward it, it disappears.
Any thoughts anyone? Thanks.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It should be the New Post button that appears there. It’s supposed to look like a pencil with a + sign.
I’ll tag this for staff to follow up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and be patient while waiting.

It looks like the icon font isn’t loading properly for you.

I have checked all areas of my browser, checked it on multiple browsers and have run every check I can think of (including Comodo’s site check), and nothing fixed it.
Coincidentally, the symbol has disappeared into a distant vortex so…no need for anymore assistance I guess.
Interesting… ;)

Yeah…well sometimes the internet can be a little head-scratching at the best of times.
BTW…I had this little tid-bit show up the other day and grabbed a pic of it. The link is below.

Ah, that’s the “bear climbing a wall” icon. :)
Just kidding, I have no clue what that is. It looks like the web font is definitely having some issues loading. I’ll let our folks know, but hopefully the problem itself has passed.

My stats are so “plain”. No bear climbing walls icons and no omega icons like the first one referred to. No special characters at all http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#custom-characters Sheesh … I feel left out (just joking, of course). ;)

Thanks but no thanks. Multitasking on long weekends when our business is slow may be boring but I’m not that desperate, yet. :)

If I ever reach that level of boredom I may take up gaming like legions of time wasters do. ;)
