they said it couldnt be done but THEY DIDNT PLAN FOR ME ahem. i have installed a way for you to upload your icons from ij as "personal smilies." each account can only hold 25 personal smilies, so that means if you want to use all your icons from ij you'll have to have four times as many accounts as you did there, but hey, its better than nothing, right? the best part is, you can upload them directly from ij without having to put them on a personal server. i'm going to teach you how... first, log into your proboards account. i'm going to start with sally. go to edit your profile. go to the "settings" tab. scroll all the way down until you see a big box that says "your personal smilies." click "set changes" in the box. add your icon urls line by line. for example, i want this icon from ij: www.insanejournal.com/userpic/32555130/4101474so i add it to the box. once it's in there, hit "set changes" again. then click "save account settings." when you're done...

when you're done, the icon will show up in the emoticon tab. so the only downside to this is you can't use quick reply, you have to use regular reply. but at least you dont have to switch back and forth between sites!

UPDATE:
i have no idea why i thought there was an icon limit. THERE IS NO ICON LIMIT. YOU CAN ADD INFINITE ICONS TO YOUR ACCOUNT

okay so actually there is a limit. it's 70.
but like, 70 icons per account is still really amazing?

hm, i wonder why it defaults to 70 icons--that seems so arbitrary--so i'm going to see if i can tweak the code at all and increase that number. im just curious WHY it defaults to 70.
also, just so you know, if you delete an icon and upload a new one, unlike with journal sites, the icon will remain in the previous posts you used it in.
this is pretty cool if i do say so myself >_>

another edit! i've made a change to the forum so you can access your smileys/icons directly from the quick reply box--no need to hit "reply"!
|

Post by Silver Sakaki on Jan 24, 2017 6:10:52 GMT
GIRL HOLY SHIT
so, not all the icons show up in the quick reply box for some reason. just 63 of them do. lemme test regular reply
|
|
|
Post by Silver Sakaki on Jan 24, 2017 6:11:54 GMT
nope, not here either. so the quick reply change decreases icon count from 70 to 63
|
|
|
Post by Mod on Jan 24, 2017 6:12:46 GMT
hmm. im curious to see if deleting native emoticons provides more space for icons. i'll look into that next
|
|
|
Post by Mod on Jan 24, 2017 6:16:24 GMT
okay, for now i've disabled the "quick reply smiley" box because i'm curious to see if that restored your 7 missing icons--lemme know?
|

Post by Silver Sakaki on Jan 24, 2017 6:17:39 GMT
it did not.
hey dont worry about it, i mean deleting old icons doesnt break image links so i dont even care
|
|
|
Post by Mod on Jan 24, 2017 6:18:30 GMT
hmm, then i'll re-enable the quick reply icons. everyone note that the icon limit is 63 now instead of 70
|
|
|
Post by Silver Sakaki on Jan 24, 2017 6:25:21 GMT
nope there is something definitely wrong because i uploaded 50 icons and only 40 are available?
|
|
|
Post by Mod on Jan 24, 2017 6:26:48 GMT
OKAY, gonna remove the quick reply icons for good and that should fix the problem going forward, setting us back at 70 icons per account.
sorry for the back and forth, guys. if anyone wants to chime in, btw, please feel free.

Kura, you're amazing!
And I know you're one of the ones who didn't even care about icons, so you went to all this trouble for us...
You're the best! <3
