I'm getting the same thing when I try to access the smilies (so it's not just your computer) The smilies seem to work if you type them in though

:storm :nocturne :bamf

I'm not sure about the u2u thing since I don't know what that does...

Well, I can confirm that U2Us are working, but it looks like our smilies went away.

I've replaced them with an older file from backup (just a few weeks ago), but I know Northstar had done some tweaks very recently with the smilies. So he may want to restore those changes.

As for U2Us, have you checked to see if you have a pop-up blocker running on your machine? It could be that that's the problem.

Thanks.

Can you tell us what web browser you are using and what version?

One possibility is clearing your cache. That would explain while the more smilies still isn't working on your machine. It was a page missing that I replaced on the server so that is definitely fixed.

It's hard for us to know what's wrong with out a few details about your web browser and version. Also, can you try using a different web browser and see if the problem with U2U's and smilies persists? That is another thing that will help use figure out what the problem is.

Thanks

(PS - To find out how to clear your cache, go to your browser's help and either look up "cache" in the index or use the seach function to type in "cache". There will be instructions on how to do it for your browser. )

Hey everyone, I'm sorry to have not been here during this problem. I just got here at 5PM after my performance to find everything in ruin... or relatively so. ;)

Saint Kurt, thank you so much for helping out with this while I was away; I feel that I dropped the ball here. Now that the moresmilies.php has been restored, everything should be fine and as far as I can tell, U2Us have been working consistently.

If anyone else has problems with U2Us or smilies, it would not be related to this issue; this problem should be fixed, so I'm moving it to Resolved Issues for now. Thank you!
