Oh yeah, the racecar is still there.

I gotta say, though, if that car was available as a model toy, I'd probably get it because it looks nice.

The XKCD image is still that "Magazine cover."

It appears that several image links have somehow changed content; not sure how to possibly revert that though.

Going through my watchlist, I'm not seeing a lot of busted or wrong images, personally. Maybe it's me, though.

Also, Tzetze: Can't take a joke?

Grr. Argh.

No racecar here. Just the one page having the wrong image.

^I really don't think it's JUST the one page.

If it's not just one, it's not very many. I'm seeing hardly any fudged images.

I'm getting the xkcd page just fine but I am getting an American Dragon Jake Long image on the The Nameless Mod page.

Edit. And right after I posted and refresh the page it fixed itself somehow.

Sorry, Sean, the only mucked image I'm seeing from this end is the random cropped magazine cover that's replaced the XKCD image, as mentioned earlier on here. Everything else seems to be recovered.

This is utterly weird.

I'm getting the correct image on The Nameless Mod, hell, everything but XKCD. I cleared my cache just now and checked again, still no change.

I haven't noticed any changes.

Though I will say that I never saw the TV Tropes logo changed to a face.

No wrong images for me, not now and neither before.

Checked the gallery you were talking about too, Bobby. It looks fine. Nothing I do fixes the XKCD image from here, though, even though all the alternate images still on the static server look fine.

Prfnoff, I see Porky popping out of a drum there.

DNS flush had no effect.

I've noticed a few images being wrong here and there such as the image on the Sakura Taisen page being an image of the word buttress.

Cleared my cache and deleted my cookies, and the XKCD image, which was borked before, is now fine. The Nameless Mod is still American Dragon'd though, and the YMMV tab icon is also bad.

Either the static server is completely shot to hell, or we have been haxxored. I'm not sure what's worse...

On the xkcd page I see a drawing of stick figures. In fact, the only page I see that looks wrong is The Goonies.

I'm using Google Chrome.

Safari here.

Starting to wonder if the DNS poisoning is still in place, and the server's just fucking with us by selectively making different things look wrong.

And The Goonies looks fine to me. This is almost as bizzare as the mice dual wielding double-barreled shotguns...

The image on Sakura Taisen looks wrong to me too and one of my avatars is now a completely different picture. Most of the other images people are seeing wrongly are right for me. It's really weird how this bug is giving us all different errors.

Generally, if Fast Eddie hasn't posted anywhere about something like this it means he's up to his eyebrows trying to fix it... Just noting that.
