Yesterday morning I was able to read lots of threads and post in I think 3 before I got the error message, so that was a record for me.

All these days on, and I haven’t had one single other blip. Weird!

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

They look kinda cute on mobile, but are pixely/blurry on desktop.

They should be much, much less pixely on the desktop! That's why I finally updated them! I wonder if there's a caching issue on your system displaying the new images but at the old size for example.

EDIT: Could also have something to do with the resolution of your display. Phones usually have a higher pixel density than older monitors. Some newer monitors (for example like the one I use from Apple, branded as "Retina Displays") also have it. Since my computer has it I may need to test on a lower resolution monitor to see if they are pixely there.

I didn't create the original version of these emojis, but I did tweak them to try to match the original ones we had here. May continue to tweak a bit so please feel free to comment. Might also try to get the few that were originally animated moving again.

You're probably already aware, the Youtube feature is missing and embedded clips aren't showing. At least on my end.
