Were the new ones better? It'd be fun to have emoticons like the "Post icons" but don't take it as a feature request please! :roll:

Edit : Cool! Edit button is working now!? Hey, great!

Well, no one is stopping you to adding the posticons as emoticons on your own final board. ;)

That's why I said don't take it as a feature request, I can change them or make some new ones :)

i think that they created the image with a square. then when they created the flashing image they thought that maybe the square is, well a bit square. So they made it a cricle. As they cant be bothered to change the first one to a circle, since geting the function right is the main focus, the old icons show a square.

thats my theory :P

squares or circles, they are a indicator to show you have posted in that topic.

Right now, I see squares.

Instead of doing, it, they should just insert some little lines on the sheet (like if it would be some text) or just change the color of the sheet to green or red or anything else.

Again, don't take it as a request for the same reason as the smileys :)

Nope, they were originally circles.... They probably began changing them to squares, but they would have to change all frames for the animated images, which would waste time that they could spend on the actual code, so they left it alone.

Bingo ... add to that I'm not happy with circles or squares and the time wasted was just pointless.
