e-steki Smilie Maker 1.7

This modification allows you to create personalized smilies by choosing eyes, mouth and face. The smilie set that was used for the graphics is one of the most popular and beautiful ones (see screenshots). It is possible to create up to 18000 different smilies for this so hours of fun are guaranteed! Additionaly, it includes plugins for custom WOL location, so that they don't show up as unknown and a handy bbcode (bbcode example: [smilie=1,2,3]) to put those smilies in posts. There is a field in the smilie maker which displays the bbcode that should be used so that the user can copy it from there. Every action is made via javascript so that the page does not reload. It is fully phrased so translations are now a piece of cake!

DEMO: http://www.e-steki.com/forum/smmaker.php (Note that the demo is in greek. However as there is not much text in this hack, you'll probably find your way )

Important:You need GD enabled in your server to use this (and almost all image-creating-on-the-fly mods so you better tell them to enable it if they haven't already ) Also this doesn't work in some forums that have the hack for transparent pngs in IE.

Installation
-1 product file which adds 5 plugins, 1 template, 4 AdminCP settings and 15 phrases.
-2 php file uploads
-1 folder with images upload
-1 small template edit
Detailed instructions are included in the accompanying zip file.

Please be kind and click INSTALL if you have installed this mod. I *can* see this you know!

I hope you enjoy this mod as much as I enjoyed making it

Changelog:
Version 1.7
-Made the tables for the eyes, mouth and face collapsible
-Added 15 more eyes, 15 more mouths and 2 more faces
-Added text to show till a smilie is made so that the user doesn't think that nothing is happening. The text disappears after the creation of the smilie.
-Fixed the bug with the preview of the BBcode.

Version 1.6
-Added AdminCP option to hide the creation buttons to guests and show a message instead
-Added AdminCP option to hide the bbcode editbox so that forums with a lot of traffic don't get a big server load from many dynamic smilies. (to completely disable the functionality though you have to disable one plugin and not perform the suggested template edit)

Version 1.5
-Added Random Smilie button
-Added bbcode like [smilie=1,2,3] to use custom smilies in posts. Beware that this may be server-intensive in big forums.
-Editbox that displays the bbcode that should be copied, which also changes with javascript instantly.
-Fully phrased now
-Template and phrase addition is done with the attached product
-Link in the smilie popup to the smilie maker
-Custom WOL locations
-A lot shorter image URL

As english is not my native language I may have done some grammar mistakes. I would really appreciate it of you reported them in this thread

Thanks to KW802's mod for inspiring me on how to use the javascript.

Woops, I also can't see them with IE!!

The only thing I can think of right now is that because your forum is fixed with, IE somehow "hides" the images cause they don't fit in the table cells... However the other person that had this problem doesn't have a fixed with website...
I should think about it more... It should be easy to fix...

@Nuclion: I also can't see yours in IE.
I took a look at yor html code and it's different from the one in the template... Have you changed the template? Please re-install the template.

Same with Gizmo5h1t3. The html code is different in you guys than in the other members that don't have the problem. See for example an img tag from Allan's module:

<img src="http://www.phylosophia.com/forum/images/smilies/e-steki_smilie_creator/eyes/6.png" alt="" border="0">

And one from Gizmo5h1t3:
<img src="http://www.gobshites.org/board/images/spacer.png" style="width: 0; height: 0; filter: progid
XImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader
(src='http://www.gobshites.org/board/images/smilies/e-steki_smilie_creator/eyes/6.png',
sizingMethod=scale);" alt="" border="0">

Can you see the difference?

[Gizmo5h1t3]

I have, but I only made a slight change in looks.
Anyway, why don't you try downloading again?
It's really strange, things get added in it for no reason...
Btw do you have windows or linux in your server? I only tested it in mine that has linux...
