Speed Test showing tiny images I did not create are loading on my page

I get a whole bunch of these in my speed test results on pingdom… when you open the link it looks like a tiny white pixel… any idea as to what this is and if it is slowing down my site?

Link to tiny image: data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///////yH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==

Pic of speed test results:

On further googling it looks like they are data URIs but I’m not sure how they got there. Does cornerstone do this automatically now in the latest version? Or is it envira gallery on the page perhaps?

Hi There,

Thanks . for the URL!

In pingdom the images coming from some plugins not from the cornerstone, which are not real image those are used for some overlay or for place holder. Those are not in form of image, are in data format so no issue on that or no affect to page speed too.

I checked in Google page speed and the page is absolute fine, and no such images are present in the page. Corner stone never add this type of code to the page.

Hope this is clear!

Thanks
