No idea why it calculates such a different height, the icon should be square, 16 x 16px or bigger, I am not sure if it’s a bug or something from the originating linked website causing it.
On some occasion removing any referral end portion of a URL fixes the problem, but probably less that does.
Obviously it looks bad and is exacerbated on mobile devices where less screen real estate is available.
How about have a setting to force an icon size if it’s grabbing the fav icon or whatever.
Actually I am not sure it is exclusive
v2.9.beta6 but also noted in .beta4
Onebox is distorting site icons, often too narrow a width of 16px seems to be the default applied, then the height is pulled from the total height of the actual inked icon image and this can depending on the size of the source image, triples the size of the Onebox:
What I have noticed also is the distorted icons are live linked / hot-linked but not when the source image is a locally downloaded version.
Tested a few more there, and it now appears to be affect both local or linked sources images, it also fixes sometimes if images download and then a “rebuild html” is forced on that post, and the other times not.
Yea you would, because it’s not doing it now even for me!
I didn’t screen grab because I couldn’t but the top one saw the small fav .ico type logo stretched and distorting the top one box. Next time I come across it I will screen grab.
I wonder is it a browser specific issue, unless of course someone did a sneaky fix
