oh, so this is basically like the vbimage host
it wouldve been better if u made it more like the real smilies found in the admincp where each smilie has his own code and stuff not just an img url

exactly
I uploaded a smilie called: rudolph
I tried putting: "rudolph" and "rodolph:" in my posts but nothing happened
when I open the custom smilies and clicked on the smilie I uploaded it gave me the url

that's not nice

I am not sure I understand what you mean? Showing up in the post field?

I thought about that, and thought it would be rather CPU intensive having to load all the users smilie codes in a threadview, and parsing out individual codes.

I already have more than 500 smilies on my forums!
I mean it wouldn't make a different!
IMO the hack like that is kinda useless!
and it's more useless not to let other members have advantage of the uploaded smilies by anyone!

I mean, if a user uploaded a smilie, everyone should enjoy it!

Well, good for you, you can just click uninstall then. ;)

Works for me and my users prefer to have their own personal smilies.

clicking one of the above custom smilies results in this...

Hmm, I am not getting that. I just show it insert the image right into the text editor:

Oh well, I might have cheered too early, and it turns out I do have a code conflict somewhere. I'll recheck my install:)

Hmm, wondering what happens if you change the code back to put the custom smilies on the bottom again?
