The site will be down starting about ninety minutes from right now for scheduled maintenance. You will not be able to access all of this right here, of course, and I'm sure this will make you nervous. Sadly, because I am posting this on the same site that will soon be down, I will not even be able to directly you here so you can read it and know it's a planned outage and we'll be back soon.  We expect four hours or so of downtime.

But it is, and we will.

And when we're back, I'll have all sorts of great things to tell y'all: a quite belated thank you and summation of THE MVP gestalt, some thoughts on what it means to be a 'creative adjacent' as I like to call my role in the partnership that is Dark Øverlord Media, and even a bit of news about what's coming down the pike.

But first things first: site updates tonight. We'll be gone for a short while. But don't fret — we'll be thinking of y'all. And also chocodiles, because those are always on Scott's mind.

Thanks for the pic; no, that is not the intended functionality.  We'll take a look.  Kali was having probs with smiley's on an iPad.  Are you using an iPad also, and if it works for you, what version of iOS are you using?

Cool Had the same problem with the emoticons. 1st gen iPad iOS 5.1.1

And no, I'm not using an iPad. I'm using Chrome on my laptop.

ok, i can duplicate the issues you're having on my ipad. We'll take a look and see if the 3rd party editor that we use for the comments has options for better ipad support.

I did some research and we're pretty much SOL with emoticon support on iPad and mobile devices in the comments area.  We didn't have emoticons in the comments before, and added it in when we switched to a better editor.  

So things work great if you're using a web browser, ie. you now have emoticons in the comments.  But if you're on an iPad or mobile device, best to not use emoticons at all because it is not supported on mobile browsers.  Sorry there's not much we can do at this point since it's a third party piece of software, unless any of the junkies out there are javascript ninjas who can hack on this issue.

Thanks for looking in to the issue.
