    I did a search, and came up empty, so I'll ask..........
    Has this forum ever considered the use of smileys?
    Was just wondering. There's been times I would have used them, if they were there. :eek:)
    Thanks.

    I'm sure it's been considered but it's also more work since AD uses somewhat unique coding for the site - not the "instant forum" type you see so much.

    I don't think we'll ever get smileys. Don't quote me on this, but I think I recall dRD stating that he hates them..

    Smileys are fun and all that but can b a hinderous sometimes.

    aD has a lot of members and a lot of things that they store on their web servers soo i think when it comes to maanging and cost cutting is some areas they dont bother with the small things.

    I remember when aD had a member online thing at the bottom and it was great but it was removed because it was causing problems with the sites maintenance. so they scrapped it.

    So whith what i have seen in the time i have been here the aditions that AfterDawn does is mainly after a lot of vigorus testing and only if their is a major need.

    My 2 cents :)

    Smilys are for those 'Crapy sites' that dont have the best users unlike here at Afterdaw! If we had them they would be over used!

    NOTE:I am not suggesting drd adds smileys..as far as i am concerned there not needed.

    if ye read it again i said here.i use firefox as my main browser..and i use ie for here and my web site.

    if ye think it will be a flame war over fire and ie ,ye will be talking to ye self..as i will not get involved........

    try to sign on with ie and firefox here at the same time with the same ip,as one will kick the other one off,{thats what i ment about not using fire here}meaning ye have to re-enter ye password for one or the other...........
