Eutychus55 can you help?

In the Why does the male butt look so attractive? thread, I, for the first time, tried an foreign smiley- the emabrased smiley. Now this has caused a password box to open with that thread. I am so embarased. Can you go delete the embarased smiley and restore order to the SDMB? Sorry for the foul up.


Cecil said it. I believe it. That settles it.

Hey weirddave…that’s too funny!

:)= cute butts


whatever

Hey weirddave, I don’t know that it’s your fault. I’ve opened a couple of threads here that say they require a password to get in. I just hit “Cancel,” and the box goes away.

I found one over in GQ just a little bit ago that was asking for a password.

I can tell you the reason for this, as i have encountered it myself. They (the people who own the site who’s smiley you are linking to) apparently are sick of people stealing thier bandwidth and linking to thier faces from other boards. So, if the request for a file (ie. a smiley) comes from any domain other than thier own, it gives a password prompt. As was mentioned, hitting cancel will make this box disappear, but you will notice that on the posts that used these, there will be the picture of the broken picture link (like a red x on a page if you use IE) because it’s unable to get the picture. Only suggestion i could offer is that either SDMB starts hosting some of these new smileys you want on thier server, or you make a page (like a geocities page or something) and put all the smiles there so they can be linked to. :slight_smile:


“Through twilight, darkness and moonrise
My scarlet tears will run
As stolen blood and whispered love
Of fantasies undone”
