Please help my understand this....

I was looking at my alert center and I noticed that when my score changes, it'll have one of two icons to the left of it.  One of which is a scale and the other is a refresh icon.  Now is there any difference with these icons as far as my real score is when I go to apply for something?

Nope.  The score is the score, the rest is just presentation.

These icons? I have at least 5 different types, they relate more to the type of alert. As Rev says, only presentation.

Yes, those icons.  Thank you guys for the response.  Now I have to figure out why I get points for keeping a 25% balance on one of my CC vs losing points when I had my CC at 2% hahah.
