    Everyone, I think we are OK for now with the new update - though there was a problem displaying the emojis to begin with, it appears that has been tweaked (it wasn't just us, it was pics across the site), so it's now back to normal - phew! The emojis all had to be aligned left as well but now that that is done it looks as though we are OK. 
    Glad that things seem ok.
