Just had the time to dig in an fix this but I quickly noticed that a single pip is served for each level of increasing rep... what a terrible way to code! Now when a user reaches level 11 there are 10 extra http requests for that one user. This could mean hundreds of extra http requests per page depending on your users and their rep, very inefficient.

Pulling one image and having an image for each potential case would create a much lighter load. Even better... create the pips with html and css so there are no additional http requests.
