If it aint broke, it will be later - July 31st, 2001 - cwm
Looks like 3dpcgames.com croaked, thank goodness contrabandent.com was able to pick up the slack. Remember, i still need good servers to host my smilies... if you can help send an email to wackoburns@hotmail.com (please, no emails about free servers like tripod ETC).
PHP, baby - July 28th, 2001 - cwm
Huge update, i redid the entire site in php! here are the advantages for you:
1.) Faster
2.) Random tips on each page
3.) Bookmarks will always work (after you bookmark the new pages)
4.) Remembers preferences via cookies
If your browser doesn't remember your settings (ie smilies per page, frames, code, boxes)
then please email me and i'll try to make them work asap!
please tell me what browser and what OS you are using.
my server problems have seem to smoothed out so i hope to finally do a smiley update soon =)

Yep, looks like something bad happened on my main server, they are trying to fix it. for now you'll have to use the frames version.. at least it aint nothin =P
Update.. or something - June 25th, 2001 - cwm
Well, i don't like banners, and i can't stand pop-ups, the people hosting me are wanting to put both on
my forum and my smiley site =\
So now i have to ask for your help again, i need someone to host me that can handle cgi and ssi... If you can
help with either that or hosting my smilies, please e-mail me.
Update.. or something - June 24th, 2001 - cwm
Not much of an update really, sorry for the lack of updates (again) i'm having troubles keeping the
servers hosting me =P
Once everything gets ironed out there should be a pretty heafty smiley update.
If you've emailed me about using smilies in email and messaging i haven't responded because basically i don't
know, but i'm still keeping an eye out for solutions =)
We're up - June 12th, 2001 - cwm
well, i now have all my smilies uploaded to a few different servers, i'd like to thank
www.3dpcgames.com,
www.ihs4ever.com,
www.mpz.co.uk,
www.duhspot.com and
Contraband Entertainment Inc.
for providing the servers,
I DESPERATELY need more servers, i don't think these servers alone can handle the load.
if you can help, please email me at wackoburns@hotmail.com.
Wonderful - June 11th, 2001 - cwm
Well, the great people over at Quake3world.com are trying to blame me for their screw-ups.
They are a big site on the Gamespy network so they can do whatever they want
to people they don't like. Since my smilies were on a gamespy server they had my site shut
down, i can't do anything about it but wait for someone to at least return an email =(
I'm sorry that all of us have to suffer for their incompetence... I'll try to get
everything back to normal as soon as i can.
EEP! - June 11th, 2001 - cwm
Ok, i messed up the script, it was giving 404's... i had to delete all the files so your bookmarks won't work anymore =(
Sorry, please go back and update your bookmarks for any smiley pages (btw, i added some smilies, forgot where though ;p)
Been a long time! - June 1st, 2001 - cwm
Well, it certainly has been a while, my ftp was giving me problems so i couldn't update the site =\
Anyway, i'd like to answer some questions quickly that i don't answer via email:
1.) There is no way that i know of to use smilies in instant messangers such as icq, aim, msn etc - except for
yahoo messenger: Instructions
2.) If you're trying to use a smiley and only the code shows up, either the place you're using it at doesn't
allow pictures or you need to click the html code link (bottom left).
3.) yes, i still want people to help me by donating server space (read below) =)
4.) No, i won't make a zip file containing all eight thousand of my smilies
5.) No, i can't make a set of smilies for your site (not right now, anyway)
I am extremely busy at the moment, trying to get into a normal sleeping pattern and getting ready to
move/get to school.. very chaotic, i will add some smilies shortly =)
Update - April 29th, 2001 - cwm
Ok added some archives really quick, i'm loaded down with a bunch of stuff
so i haven't been available to do many updates =(
In the contributors i added e_doom's, sarge's, lilly's, slim2g's, navigator's
and xerx's. ionsane in smiley uploads and Final Fantasy IX in games/ff.
Enjoy =)
