Is it just me or did the SDMB get a case of the pretties?

The smilies look too much like Tropical M&Ms for my taste, but other than that I think it’s pretty snazzy.

Too many blue smilies… but I love this one :eek:

I like it.
It’s shiny.

Its a conspiracy by the Guests to put them on equal footing with members who pay their dues instead of mooching.

Carp!! How come I’m a member now? I want to be a charter member! :frowning:

Hm, I’m not really noticing any difference in the look either and I refreshed my cache. Perhaps I’m just not that observant. I will be curious to see if my “charter member” title disappears after posting this…

Have you renewed? I have and my charter member is still there <looks down>, yep, still there.

Renewed? I just bloody paid in November. :smack:

I don’t that it’s that…I haven’t renewed yet, and I still have my “charter member” tag (I think).

I like 'em all fine except for toothy and rolleyes. Those two aren’t just bad, they suck hairy gorilla ballz. WTF?

I consider eek much-improved.

AAAH!! :eek:

The changes are freaking me out!
I like the status quo.

:: whimper ::

I especially like the new “Post Reply” icons, with the scroll and quill pen. Classes up the joint. :cool:

aww… where is dubious? That was my favorite smilie.

Is this for good?

I liked the new smilies initially, but now I’m having a colors-overdose. I like :D, :eek:, and :p. For the rest, I prefer the old ones.

As far as the Charter membership label goes, Ed Zotti explains it here.

I’m posting to check my status, and check the theory. My Profile predates subscriptions, but I didn’t actually pay until a few months ago. So, will I be an ordinary member, or the Charter Kind?

I like the new look, As Bibliocat opined, it fancies up the joint.

But the new rolleys has a ‘I think I’ll go home and masturbate’ wistfulness to it’s expression.

and the Wink just looks sleepy.

Well, give me a few days and I’ll have completely forgotten how things used to look. You ever see that archive site with the old style dope? It’s freaky.

To be honest, I dislike it. The smileys scream “PRIMARY SCHOOL!” to me.

Is it me, or has the look of the SDMB continued to change since this thread was established? Many of the icons look completely different as of this morning!

No, as others have mentioned in some of the numerous threads on this subject, the old images (smilies, icons, etc.) are stored in your browser cache, and until the cache is cleared out or refreshed, the old icons keep appearing.

Yeah, but I flushed it deliberately. Or I thought I did.
