Twitter has been having problems lately with images not working on the site. Some people have also has their Twitter images disappear or get swapped out for other images.

I tried installing my latest background along with a new icon and now I am stuck with a plain Twitter since it won’t take any of my design changes.

So if you are trying to change your background keep in mind you may have to wait for Twitter to work out their kinks before you can get it to display properly.

Below is the statement Twitter released on their blog about the image problem.

Missing user images

Many people are seeing missing user images in their timelines, tweets and other places throughout the site. We’re aware of this critical problem and will be working to fix it.

Twitter Update

Seems as if Twitter has gotten things worked out and images are once again working. The only difference I have noticed is that I often have to upload my background multiple times before it finally takes…go figure.
