 * There is a little issue with the Amazon tracking pixel in the current templates
   provided by the plugin.
 * The default templates use this to load the tracking pixel:
 *     ```
       <img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.%TLD%/e/ir?t=%TAG%&l=as2&o=%MPLACE_ID%&a=%ASIN%" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />
       ```
   
 * Apparently, Amazon now uses by default `%IMP%.amazon-adsystem.com` instead of`
   www.assoc-amazon.%TLD%`.
 * While `www.assoc-amazon.%TLD%` will still work for most locales, it apparently
   will not work for tracking pixels from the Japanese and Brazilian stores. The
   browser will display a missing/broken image icon.
 * I’d suggest the next plugin update to include that change in the default templates.
   Meanwhile, users can do that themselves with the templates they use.
 * In any case, it may be useful to add a `display:none` to the `style` of the tracking
   pixel to avoid the broken image icon in future changes from Amazon.
