Smiley Faces with Blow Torches

Umm...does anyone else see the smiley faces with blow torches on the homepage? If so, what's up - if not - i really need to up my meds again. I'd make this longer but there really isn't much more to say. Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum Loris ipsum ad nauseum.

You must be referring to a banner add on the home page. They have them to help pay the bills.

Why do you ask?

Well, the whole background of the home page is filled with them. Line after line after line..I've never seen them before. They're kinda cute but they scare me.

Either you are seeing things, or you've modified your browser settings to show a custom background on all web sites.

haha..i didn't do anything though. but they're gone now. so yeah, guess i am nuts after all.

No, probably not nuts. Just tired maybe? ;-)

Watch out for those blow torches

You'd think I'd just seen a UFO buzz my house. I swear I'm not crazy...maybe tired but not tired enough to hallucinate. I do appreciate you getting back to me quickly. Many thanks.

I've looked at the main page and several others, but I only see the flame smileys in the posts in this thread.


You can put in any smiley you want in a post with the right bbcode.


Are you sure it was on the main page.
I haven't even seen a banner with a flame throwing smiley.

I know man..it's weird. I don't know what it was. But it was definitely on the homepage and there were definitely rows upon rows of one smiley torching another smiley with a flame thrower. They were behind everything, all the hot topics and the important current topics. I'm not freaking out about it...I actually thought one of the operators had put the code in just for fun. Maybe they did. It didn't last longer than say...5 minutes. I wish I had gotten a screen capture.

I know the one you mean, it's a BTS emoticon called "flamer".

When you put the two dots : at the front and end it looks like this...


Is that the one you saw.

that'd be the one.
