I can’t take credit for that one. This same upgrade happened at another UBB forum I read ([forum.arstechnica.com](http://forum.arstechnica.com)) and a similar outlash ensued (though they had enough forsight to set the flaming thread limit at 100 posts). This graphic was produced by one of Ars Technica’s readers. I had to share it, though.

Ars Technica is a computer geek news site. (They would say PC Hardware Enthusiast)

Oh. My. Dear. Sweet. Jesus.

Opal, should I ever meet you in person, I shall either prostrate myself in worship, or run screaming.

OpalCat, you are a genius, and that’s all there is to it.

Robo, if you haven’t seen it yet, look on the left of the “Reply” screen above “Options.” There’s a link to “Smilies Legend”; follow it for a key to creating the critters, should you so desire.
