Looks like a photoshop lol... never seen something like that before. If it's not a photoshop you might want to contact ArenaNet if you can't get an answer here.

It's just an text input for japanese/chinese/etc, you get that by pressing Alt+Shift twice on your chat.

Something similar happened to me a long time ago. I think it was during a Gaile visit. I shrugged it off as some sort of lag.

It looks so non-Guild Wars-ish, same with the picture you get when you have an item in your inventory that doesn't have the icon yet due to an outdated gw.dat or corrupted gw.dat.

Photoshop?? Why is that always the cry? Seriously look at it... its a bloody A in a white square, why photoshop a piece of crap like that? Some ppl are right idiots on here.
On topic.. yes it's the asian language indicator, it comes up if you press ctrl and space or have korean/jap/etc installed.

Yeah, I work with multiple keyboard language settings and this shows up rather often in my chat bar. AFAIK, it's for Chinese, Japanese and Korean language settings, since they use more than one alphabet. Could apply to other non-latin-based alphabets, I don't know. x].

I used to use it to type japanese for fun. Too bad it doesn't work in local on my account.

It's the Japanese IME, in romanji mode. Press alt+shift to switch between languages, alt+cap_lock to change to katakana, shift+cap_lock to change to hirgana, and alt+~ to change from kana to romanji or vice versa.
