I second that.

Great mod. installed and voted MOTM!

No, but you can always create a usergroup and add that only user to it :)

Depends on how you configure the hack. The default behavior is that if the user enters a new smilie, the smilie is only used in the new posts for that user.

You can configure the hack in such way that every time a user adds a new smilie then the cache is cleared (and, all his posts are updated the next time someone views them), but this is somehow server intensive and is disabled by default.

Please keep in mind that the smilie is only available for the user that uploaded it. Anyone else using that keyword will not get the smilie. When a user adds a smilie it is checked against his smilies (no duplicated keywords allowed) and against the forum smilies (cannot override forum smilies).

You can restrict size and dimensions. Any image type is allowed (gif, jpg, png)

I don't think that's default in vbulletin? Quick reply doesn't have a smilie dropdown. Since the hack extends the current smilies behavior I suppose if standard smilies were added to the quickreply custom smilies would appear, too.

Thanks, will do.

One little thing I've found:

In the usercp the background of the text in the left panel is black. The main user control panel page that is...

With a white skin it's hard to see.

Looks like it's missing some css code or something :)

Hmm..... I've just installed this and I'm trying to upload a smiley to test .. getting the error Imageinfo Failed:

That seems to be an imagemagick error (vbulletin can use either gd or imagemagick), are you uploading an smilie inside the allowed dimensions (60X60 is the default), otherwise vbulletin will try to resize the image to fit.

This problem is not specific to this mod, but to imagemagick, I found the following thread that might help:

I found the issue. VBulletin didn't like the image so I just resaved it. Thanks for the suggestion as it allowed me to find out what was going on :)

Fixed and updated zip, thank you :) The background css class was not being created. A plugin was added.

BTW will it error out if someone else has already used the same replacement variable or image ?

Excellent work, Kentaurus!

Ver1.02 fixed the css problem.
