Try to make twittering-mode display icon by adding (setq twittering-icon-mode t) to .emacs file, but get curl failure. It says:

curl.exe exited abnormally (exit-status=53) for GET http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images//.jpeg

Emacs version 25.2.1

I'm also on 25.2.1, my error is only slightly different. failure: /usr/bin/curl exited abnormally (exit-status=23) for GET http://pbs.twig.com/porfile_images/(random numbers and letters)/pBeeJQDQ_normal.png

@irishmac473 I fixed this by downloading curl version 7.54.0, the original curl in this project is outdated. However, I suspect your situation is the same, the exit-status 23 is the "CURLE_WRITE_ERROR", which means "An error occurred when writing received data to a local file". So it seems like a permission error.

@Mosesofmason Thanks. I've never done it before, can I install an older version of curl? Is this what you're suggesting? I'm on Manjaro.

@irishmac473 Try to update to the latest curl. Also check the permission of your /home folder and its sub folders.

@Mosesofmason Oh ok, I misunderstood you. I'll try this when I get home. Thanks

I fixed it by using twittering-connection-type-order to give wget priority.
