It appears that some of us are seeing a different set of emoticons (smilies) than others. ColBosch and Sharpnel report they see the old "thumps up" emoticon for this character combination: O0
Truetanker and I are seeing an afro with sunglasses. So far, Sharpnel reports they're using Windows 8.1 with Google (Chrome), while I'm using Windows 10 with Edge. Anyone else?

Thanks, that's a start!

Thumbs up, Windows 10 / Chrome. Afro with sunglasses, Android / Chrome.

Liam's Ghost suggests the emoticons I'm seeing are due to using a faction theme vice "BattleTech 2.0". I'm using the "Steel" skin, and don't see where I might select a non-faction theme...

I have changed to the 2.0 theme and I get a thumbs-up now, in fact all the standard emoticons pre-crash and none of that annoying, oversized homer drool pic. So here I am.

Verified. Switching to the default theme changes many of the emoticons and hides quite a few as well. And what is up with that giant Homer Simpson?
Edit: If you're seeing this as Homer, it has to go: [drool]

I think I'll keep it on the BT 2.0 thank you very much...
-
That did the trick, thanks Kidd! O0
EDIT: Darn it... I think I now remember why I was using the other theme... where's the "View New Replies" button in 2.0?

Second link under the "Hello <Forum Name>" in the upper left corner under the "Battletech" logo...

Awesome, thanks! Now I just have to adjust to losing some screen real estate when I want to read replies, at least until they get this whole thing straightened out...
