A text strikeout feature would be nice. I went back and tried to edit one of my posts, wanted to change the wording, but leave the original in there clearly marked as erroneous.

Could also add a few emoticons...

And lastly a random one called "sly" that can't really be described... sometimes it just seems to fit the situation:

I also noticed, at least in my browser, that the "wink" and "twisted evil" emoticons are mixed up. If I click the "wink" face, I get the twisted smiley, and vice-versa. Seems to be a simple case of the GIF image URLs getting swapped.

Not trying to be disrespectful of those who have put so much time and effort into building this site, kudos to all of you.

Safe shooting. http://www.ducatimonster.org/smf/Smileys/classic/thumbsup.gif

We have had some of this from Bill of Rights - He also wants the more Emoticons and we are looking at the upgrade to the Forum Software now that the Server move has almost been completed.

The forum software is being looked at, and the other moderators are getting a list of important things to look for as we upgrade the forum. One of the biggies is the migration of the data. The other was the increased functionality and last was the bigger selection of Emoticons.

Great feed back and keep the suggestions rolling in as we are attacking the site with upgrades.

Thanks.

Yup. I asked about strikeout text also. Currently, I have about 70 emoticons on file, in addition to the ones we have here. I don't expect Stubob and/or Raccoon will add all of them in, but most of them are public domain, and those that are not, I made. :)


Blessings,
