zippyd: Seriously, I appreciate the suggestion -- I've actually developed more than enough forums for various companies and have developed such things (emoticons) for other companies, but I can't personally stand them :-) And again, they would slow down the page loading times as well, even when they would be like 512 bytes, but when you got 100 on one page, that makes 50kb extra to load per page, which is a pain for modem users.
And also, I'm sorta old skool person, I began my "Net career" as a sysop on AmiExpress board back in 1991, I'd personally prefer a text-only, fixed-width font command line site :-) Unfortunately such thing doesn't exactly go well with mainstream users, so that's why aD is graphical, although we try to aim to keep it simple while trying to make it look nice :-)
But as always, suggestions are appreciated, but this one (emoticons) will get turned down, unfortunately :-)

well he's the boss, and he does make a very good point about the increase in per-page bandwidth.

Ya umm, 100 smileys a page... i dont think so. for the ppl with slow ass connections give an option to turn off pics and smileys, so that its pretty much text only.
i stand by it, i think that they would be a good idea. (i know i have absolutely no rank or anything, this is just my opinion.)

to you it might be a good idea but to the people who run the board; they have a point that it does chew the bandwith and slow the board down for modem users.Even broadband users get the slow down now and again, and yes i grumble every time that happens
