Every time I want to reply, quote, modify a post, a bunch of the smilies are taking a lifetime to load, before (mostly) being inaccessible.
Anyone else having this problem? Or is it just my MacFuck?

Do you mean the fancy smileys up top, or the simple ones right above the message box? I have a Mac, too, as you know, and the fancy smileys have never worked for me unless I spell out the code, and it's that way still, but if I type it out  , it works fine, no problems. The simple ones like  are working perfectly for me. |

The fancy ones, but I don't mean clicking them (I knew that would be a problem a la your problems), I mean after I try to reply, quote, or modify, and get to that page with the message box, it takes forever for the graphics of the smilies to load, and thus I cannot do anything -- even load other web pages -- for about 90 seconds. But if no one else is having that problem, I will chalk it up to the craptastic Irish Internet, as I am wont to do.  |

Why are most of the smilies dead now?  |

I don't use smilies, so I don't even notice these things. Which are dead? Maybe the site we were taking them from is down or something.

That was a fun post to submit!

Thanks. None of the smilies from smilies.vidahost.com are working. The website isn't working. This is not a coincidence.
How long has this been an issue?

 OK, let's get down to brass tacks. Only Burley knows how to fix this issue and he's pretending he hasn't noticed.  Chloe, I think it came about maybe a day or two before Ardi first posted about it. |

I know how to do it, I'm just super lazy. Sorry, I forgot about this thread. The problem is with smilies.vidahost.com, not us. The only solution I can see is to simply remove all of the smilies we were using from that website. If people want them replaced with other smilies that are from websites which actually work, then we can do that.
Cool?

Thanks Chloe. In fact, if someone tells me how to do it, I would be glad to do so!

I will send you a message explaining it ... I have to sleep now, but should have time tomorrow. It's not too difficult, just... a longer process than it ought to be. I removed most of them for now, though there are a couple lingering.

I might be able to do it tonight, but probably not. I will definitely be able to do it this weekend, if someone reminds me.

Apropos of this, do you know about how many page views this board gets per day?

Post by The Chloe on Oct 10, 2009 16:20:38 GMT -5
Just to clarify, I actually did remove all of the problem smilies, except for two or three which I happened to miss from the code. You're welcome, and thank you for noticing. And I'm not doing those right now because I just got home, it's 620am, and I don't like to mess with code when my eyes are tired.
As for how many page views we get a day: not that many. Over 500.

I think Photobucket gives you 10gb/month, which should be enough. Possibly.

Okay, that's as far as I'll go right now. If you guys feel that anything that was once up there but is now not is indispensable, let me know. Or, if you want me to add anything new, we work that out too. I'm using this site: www.mysmiley.net/It's fairly in-depth. |

That part I was not planning on doing. Thanks Burley, that was very productive of you. Also, we still need to tell Bryini how to do stuff. I would have done it this weekend, but saw very little daylight and failed. Soon.

That part I was not planning on doing. For obvious reasons. I'm not going to lie: it's a pain in the ass.  |
