idea for different pixel
I'd recommend using a different file instead. If you use /skins/common/blank.gif there are a few benefits:
 * It's less than half the size of this image (43 bytes vs 95)
 * It's used in some other spots, so it might be in the user's cache already (saves an HTTP request)
 * Since Runescape has a lot of cool custom scripts that a bunch of other wikis have copied, they are including this pixel (from Runescape) on their wiki. This means they also have to make an extra DNS request to lookup runescape.wikia.com. The common pixel is on a shared image domain that all pages look up the DNS for anyway.

Small improvement, but every little bit counts :) -Sean Colombo (talk) 00:05, July 18, 2012 (UTC)
