Having a little smiley problem

[Chris/Lisa]

Everytime I click on the (more..) smiles it hangs windows explorer - anyone else or just me again ??

[uscwest]

Not having any problem here.

[Breeze]

Did you break my smilies :unsure: Oh good mine are still working :thumbs:

[Johnie]

That happens to me every now and again. I thought it was just my computer.

[Mickeymac]

I'm sorry to hear you're having a little problem. :D There are a boatload of smilies all on one page, and many of them active. Your browser may be trying to load them all before displaying them. Mine hangs up too. I keep a page, once it's loaded (mine takes 2-3 minutes to fully load; have timed it) in the background, or minimized, and use that all day, if that helps.

The only other option that I know of is to beg Joanne to split them into separate pages again.

[Redkop]

working ok on deer park alpha (firefox upgrade) take about 45 secs to load, have you changed any IE settings

[joanne]

Always takes ages for them to load for me and the message I'm typing seizes up until they start loading :rolleyes:

I'm happy to split them into categories again, I prefer it that way, but when I put it to poll people voted for them as they are :shrug:

[Chris/Lisa]

not had a problem before - just seems to be doing it today :shrug:

[JuniorMickey]

Jo can you just do miltiple pages without the catagories? I can never remember waht catagory I'm looking for but two or three pages may be quicker

Perhaps if it is a functionality issue you could just pull rank and we would all just have to accept what the boss says:D

[PaulaK]

Alphabetical order would be good so if for instance we wanted a slap :slap:, we'd look in the page that contained the 'O-T' smileys. You could split it into 4 pages of 6 letters or something then :shrug: or would that take ages to organise. LMK if I can help.

Here here!

Jo, I think people answer a poll and then when the functionality hits over time, they might change their opinion. It's kind of a fun novelty to see them all hopping and boobling at once, but it would be nice to see them split again. I can help, too.

[Redkop]

maybe we can do without the smilies if that speeds stuf up :evil:...................kidding really boss :D

[JuniorMickey]

Oh my - he's already listening to Kiltie :nono:

[joanne]

No, it's either categories or just one page :shrug:

[Redkop]

No, it's either categories or just one page :shrug:

then may categories would speed it up for members.......i like it as it is, but maybe you trail it for a few weeks when u have time

[tajainaz]

As Paula suggested, could you use letters of the alphabet as "categories"? I was looking for one particular smilie and couldn't find it. I know it's there, but I didn't know which category it was in!

I missed the poll, but would prefer multiple pages, regardless of how they are categorized. The massive smilie list is not dial-up friendly. But since I'm too frugal to go with a faster service at this time, I just accept that some things are going to be slow. :lol:

And the forums in general do load much faster now--as long as no one posts a massive graphic! :rolleyes:

Excuse me :ohno: :hmph: :whack:

[Chris/Lisa]

[Chris/Lisa]

[ukwdwnut]

done that a zillion times :(

have you the latest versions of all the browsers you are using chris?

[Chris/Lisa]

think so - only started happening last 10 days or so :shrug:

[ukwdwnut]

:erm: :scratch: then im stumped mate i have to use IE as the others dont work for me, when posting, even deer stalker :lol:

[Redkop]

ok have you the latest version of xp (guessing your on xp), also go to internet options and then advanced and click on restore defaults, see if that does anything

[Dawn]

Chris does this happen at home and at work, or just at one place?

[Chris/Lisa]

only at work - on NT not XP and only happened in last few days

Smiley page loads up then kinda flashes and hangs all open IE's :shrug:

must just be me

[Dawn]

Problems on any other sites?
Dial up or broadband?
Is the virus protection there up to date?
What's the strongest OTC pain relief available?

Id just like to say, i fully support this suggestion :yes: :evil:

[Redkop]

me thinks you will be going hungry tonight mate

[joanne]

Id just like to say, i fully support this suggestion :yes: :evil:

You might want to book into a hotel tonight :smug:

[joanne]

If you want the smilies re-categorised I'll have to see if there is a hack that works on this version of VB. Plus, it will take a while to do and I won't be able to start until next week now.

[Redkop]

You might want to book into a hotel tonight :smug:

he'll have a hard time...........its the oil week, i tried to stay up there this week :lol: , no room, its all oil barons there

[joanne]

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Looks like it's the beach then :evil:

[Whitequeen]

Haven't you built him a shed yet, Joanne? I heartily recommend a shed.:evil:

[Chris/Lisa]

I really wasn't asking for a major upheaval as most people are happy with the big page , as was I when it worked but just recently its started hanging the computer - as it only seems to be me at work affected please please please don't worry about it :D

[lovinmom]
