Hi there,

I briefly searched through but could not find something similar to this that had a fix. I just installed Discourse on a DigitalOcean droplet and I’ve noticed that the emojis and user profile images (default system assigned images) does not appear.

I’m currently running Discourse version: [v2.2.0.beta7 +141](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/47cbfb14989bcf828c66b211827cb9355214e71a...tests-passed)

Here is a screenshot of the issue:

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What is the exact URL to the missing image? This should give you clues.
