The direct link to the smilie as shown customised is actually to the script. If your users link to it that way it will re-create the custom smilie
each time it's viewed, which will rapidly start to eat up resources. On a site that only gets a few hits it may not be a big deal, but in a forum environment I imagine it would get out of hand pretty quickly.
