...or they've had another 'upgrade'.

The teeth-showing smiley face has gone - to be replaced by a second 'miserable' face - one of these :-(

It's changed on all the threads too :-)

Must be my server!! All your emojis are frowning!

Edit - used my vast technical prowess and turned it off & on again - and all is back to normal :-D

It was funny - where it says top tip - using the Genes Reunited community, instead of a circle and question mark, there, inappropriately, was the ONLY manically smiling emoji :-D :-D :-D

I shall delete this thread soon through sheer embarassment :-S

I think it's a thunderbug.
Nasty teeny tiny thrips that land on me and make me itch :-|

They have the same effect on Betty (cat), so I wouldn't put it past them to infiltrate my 'puter!!!

This is how big these evil things are:

Edit: even he says they can get behind LCD screens, so walking into my PC is a piece of cake!! :-0
