Exact steps to cause this issue

I searched for https://community.nodebb.org/category/30/activitypub in Mastodon and followed the Category from there which shows up as a "Group" on Mastodon and looks like this:

What you expected

the Category I was searching for has an icon set so I would have assumed that should be displayed back on Mastodon

What happened instead

Mastodon is somehow getting a copy of the header for the NodeBB instance and cropping the middle for the avatar representation

Anything else?

Unfortunately that icon is a text icon and not an image 😞

the way that writefreely does it is take the first letter and rendering it into an image which seems like that could totally be done with a webfont
