2 more smileys, to the PostgradForum Team, with love...

K

I could see them in H's post after my last post here, but now they're gone again! Weird.

K

Yes 404, fine on the separate page that opens when you post a reply. C'mon you techies, explain that one to me

kc, I could see the ones on H's message, after you sent your message too. How strange. Then I opened a new window, just to see what happens. So on one window H's message had smileys, on other it had boxes. I would look at the source code but it takes me ages to work out what's going on, because I'm rubbish at it . I'm sure the PostGrad Team is much better at diagnosing these things.

i can see them in the add a message, but not in the forum

works...

rat, I think you've solved the mystery.

Yes, when you go back to the thread by clicking the "Back to Messages" button on the Add a Message page, the smileys appear correctly with the path http://www.postgraduateforum.com/images/smiley_embarrased.gif".

When you open the thread from the main Postgrad Forum page however, smileys' path is "http://www.findaphd.com/students/images/smiley_embarrased.gif" which goes to an error page.

Well done you clever folk!

Well done rat and 404, you've passed the deliberate "why don't all the smileys work" test we set.

A big thumbs up from the PGFT.

All smileys should now be showing (you may need to refresh your page).

Thank you PostgradForum Team // DanB, your design brief is very challenging

H

404 can we please have a suprised smiley?

ta

S

and a vomitty green one...

T

How about a confused smiley?

If PostGrad Team don't have any problem with that, I am happy to a few more smileys. But I don't know the workload this would cause to their routine (i.e setting up the code etc.). I've made a laughing one and it looked more like a hideous-psycho smiley

S

hideous psycho is okay too. I'm sure we could find uses for it!
