find my friends photos disappeared - OSX browser only

Out of the blue my family on find my friends (OSX browser) have become Orange Icons where they were previously photos. Their photos are still used in Find My Friends on iOS and are still in my iCloud contacts. Any ideas? The only change I can think of is I have added them to family sharing recently and, in the Family Sharing pane they also appear without images. However, if this were the issue I would expect it to affect all devices not just my Macbook.

As per the article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/icloud/mm9eb86f751f/icloud

On the map, your friends are represented by orange dots  with their initials or profile pictures. Your location appears as a blue dot . The shadows around the dots indicate the location’s accuracy (the smaller the shadow, the better).

Note : in some countries the maps accuracy is not upto the mark ( as what observed ) , the nearer is iPhone to Mac the better services is provided , in suburbs the wifi signals generated from towers are weak even iPhone is connected with 4G .
