Animated Smilies Complaint Thread.

adblock will block them for you.

So I have to implement a proxy like tinyproxy to let me filter this stuff? Bit extreme, don't you think? I only use tinyproxy for my kids simply because I want rocket-fast speed when I surf.

I quite like the new ones myslelf..

I'm guessing most people do, otherwise there would be more traffic here. I guess I can install adblock or try and get used to them.

Who said anything about a proxy? Adblock is a part of konqueror, and I'm pretty sure it's a firefox extension too.

I detest the new big smileys....* *

people started using those in multiples (the LOL one)... its flashy and disturbing...

now many of the threads here look like some of those pop-ups...or even like those cheap sites where they promise music or movie downloads or what not...

these 'new' smileys thoroughly degrade the previously professional looking forums.

lets keep it simple and nice
please please revert.!
