Im sure there is a simple answer to this.I am unable to view the icons (like the smileys etc) on this forum.It only happened today and im sure ive not changed any settings.Does anyone know how to rectify it, even if I right click on the cross and click show picture nothing happens.It is driving me mad.

    Yep everyone is in the same boat as SD said....till its sorted

    problem seems to have started when they've been sorting the server & it looks like someones messed up the filenames and not updated the links to smileys
