• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Sorry, i normally never advertise a piece of software, but found a very neat Emoticon utility that can work with any forum and can work with AIM too. http://www.emotipad.com/ its got a bunch of pre-added smilies to the program and you can add your own to it.

I just found this program today, while looking for smilies to add to my own forums on another site. I figured alot of people on fauna would love this handy utility.

also, if you get the program there is one site, http://mysmilies.com/ that has smilies you can add to emotipad.
 
Did you scan it for spyware? Last time I tried to download it (a long while ago) it was loaded with it. Granted that was over a year or more ago, so maybe it has changed.

are you sure it wasnt smileycentral.com? It downloads hot bar onto your comp :( hotbar.exe is evil!!!
 
No, it wasn't smiley central. They have always been a nightmare and continue to prey on the unknowing. I have cleaned too many computers out for friends because of that thing!

Hello there,

I would like to assure you that my product has NO spryware, adware, malware or any other 'ware in it. It does just what it says on the tin. It is owned by me and my Husband and is just a hobby we have which is on top of our normal day jobs and family life. I invented it and my husband coded it, and thought others might like it too which is why we launched it on the internt. I'm a smiley-mad woman :D

I shall leave the way I came in and shut the door behind me :D

WOW, that was unexpected.

I already figured it was spyware free since my system never picked up any new spyware after i installed it. Thanks for totally clearing that up soulgirl :)
 
I know people are very aware these days and I would personally hate to have any program on my system that incorporated spyware - ok, not counting windows as we have no choice LOL.

Our product has never had it even right at the beginning. Glad you're enjoying it.

I can offer you and your members a discount if you like :) You can use this link to get a cheaper copy. https://usd.swreg.org/cgi-bin/s.cgi?s=4755&p=4755EPPBULK&v=0&d=0&q=1&t
