How come the logos of some of my bookmarked links now just show an empty square and others don't?
I believe it happened after I updated to Firefox 8, but I'm not sure. Some of the logos that are to the left of the bookmark titles no longer appear. Only a blank box shows where the logo used to be. Not all of them have disappeared, only some. Not that this is important as far as having the bookmarked link work but I am curious as to why and if they can be restored.

I'm not much into why something was done, just into why something happens and how to put it back if I don't like. I did decide after awhile that I don;t like it and put it back. Would also say that I would never see it on my bookmarks toolbar because I get rid of all favicons there, but want them in folder there and everywhere else including on tabs and location bar. I put mine back with a style, and if there are changes to fix it in the Library List the style is likely to get updates and be a shown as an update available rather than picking it off of blog which seldom get updates, or a question where it may continue to get updates but you are not likely to see them.
