I was going to post this in the “About this message board” forum, but I thought it’d get more visibility here.
I hate the these new “big grin” ( : D ) smilies. :mad: They are hideous. :mad: The old “big grin” smilies had been my favorite one. These new ones look like some caricature of a Chinese person. (Sorry if you’re Chinese, but if I was Chinese, I’d hate them even more.)
All my old posts have them also, now. I feel violated, like if someone went through all my old posts and changed all the words to misspellings. Please bring back the old smily.
Show your support, people. We got rid of the flaming folders, we can do this too.
Throw in <img src=“http://www.elnet.com/~sburch/sjbgrin.gif”> and you get the old smilie. There should be no copyright infringement since the MB should own the rights to the old smilie, as far as I can tell. You’re hitting my server for the image, so if everybody and their brother does it, it might not be good, but a few should be OK. Lovers of the old smilie unite!
