    It makes the user look like a mong.

    Which is what 99% of the people who used the rolly eyes smiley were being.

    It seems to have changed in only a few skins. Classic is one of them (probably white as well). If you still see the old smiley in those skins then try clearing your cache.

    It's still the same for me, I'm using the red and black skin. What does clearing your cache mean?

    Just changed to the classic skin for a bit to see what the big deal was, damn that's one mutant looking smiley! Still looks better than it did before though

    Basically you have the old file saved on your computer. Your browser is using this instead of downloading the new one everytime. By clearing your cache you get rid of the old version stored on your computer and force it to download a new one.

    To clear your cache in firefox hold ctrl + shift + delete at the same time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,573 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    Alas, the new one can't be used for the same purpose but Cyclops is growing on me.

    You just hate smileys because they remind you of yourself before you grew bitter and your eyes went dull from the HATE!

    You're worse than hitler

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    No I just hate sh*tty smileys like the confused one...it doesn't even convey confusion, it conveys crapiness. Rolleyes served a purpose, even if some dickheads over used it and undermined it's effect.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,661 Mod ✭✭✭✭Faith


    It was the old one in the purple skin until I cleared my cache. The new one looks funny.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    Roll eyes, the best way of saying "I can't win this argument so I'm just going to pretend you're making a fool of yourself". Oh well.

    True, although the sad smilie looks more dissapointed and a little let down than it does sad.

    The Cloud skin is nice alright and the wide grin smiley doesn't make me want to smack the poster in the face. I find the various icons for showing which threads have new posts, which ones are hot etc. to be confusing as hell though.

    Also, way more noticeable in work...
