Thousands of forum smilies!

All the smilies which weren't removed have now been added to Imgur. It's not 100% reliable, but it's better than losing a whole server of smilies every few months! Thanks to all those who have hosted smilies and helped me in the past.

Also tracked down a few more broken smilies and fixed a couple random things.

I'm probably going to be doing some more updates in the next days/weeks/months. Seeing all the great smilies people have contributed over the years really makes me want to get this heap up and running again :)

I'd love it if the few of you who still visit please Like MySmilies on Facebook. It'd help me out and keep me motivated :)

Alrighty, noticed another smiley server went down. In the coming days I plan to upload all the smilies to Imgur. That should ensure the smilies stay around forever (in Internet time).

I'm also going to add a one-click-copy on the smilies (using a Flash/JavaScript plugin).

Any smilies I haven't gotten explicit permission to use will be removed from the site (I've been wanting to for a while).

Lastly, I noticed over a thousand smilies that were missing from the site somehow and also a few incorrect URLs. Those have been added/fixed.

Finally got some smiley servers up and running.

Thanks to the following folks for helping out:

Tshirtpatch.com (banner above).

ForsakenClans.com - A werewolf vs vampire multi player game site.

Blazemint.com

crowd9.com - been a smiley host for quite a while.

Thanks again, guys!

I'm aware the smilies are down. Sorry I didn't make a post earlier. I've been in contact with some people trying to get it back up, but apparently the guy that hosts the smilies is unreachable -_-

The smilies are a pretty ridiculous burden on any machine/network, so the only surprise is they lasted as long as they did.

Anyway, if you think you can help send an email to wackoburns@hotmail.com

Looks like the smilies are back :)
