Glad that things seem ok.cathybird said: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.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
