Here’s a fun one – a client just called to ask us to remove the “art” from his blog. I was a little confused, and loaded up the site, fearing that the server may have been hacked.
(Images of goatse flying through my mind)
Thankfully, it wasn’t quite that bad.

What happened was that we were using the image from a remote server.
Like:
<a href="http://www.furl.net/storeIt.jsp?u= http://www.legalonline.com.au" target="_blank"> <IMG alt="Furl legalonline.com.au" src="http://www.twistermc.com/RSS-images/furl.gif" border=0></a>
For some reason, these guys decided to redirect that image to the ugly one shown above. I guess they were trying to prevent bandwidth leeching, or just having a joke.
Solution: Host a copy of all icons on our own server.
