What is your opinion?

Jim, there are two different issues I am seeing. I think your question refers to my comment that I would quit fretting about the icons I can't read. Those are ones that appear at the end of topic. There is one on the left that is "Post Reply", Then in the messages there are three; "Edit", "Quote", and I believe "Quote +". Those appear on my screen, but they are not readable at the distance I normally view the screen from. I have a 23 inch screen set to fairly high resolution, so that may make them appear smaller than they would on a smaller screen. I am leaning where they are, and that if I hold the mouse pointer over them, a message box pops up telling me in readable text if I have the right one or not.

The other icons that don't show at all are the ones at the bottom of the reply frame, such is Smile, Wink, Red Face, and so on. Sometimes they show up eventually. Those are the ones that Morpheus pointed out are on 208.78.40.45. Note that the server is on 208.78.40.47, so they would likely fall under the same subnet mask for anyone on that local network. If it exists with those numbers. I don't know your hardware configuration, but I don't assume that 208.78.40.47 is the server. I think it is a firewall, guess I should admit I probed it the other day trying to figure out what was happening (or not happening).

Finally, after about 5 minutes of this reply pane being open, the emoticons immediately below have finally shown up!
 
Jim, the icons that are at the 208.78.40.45 address are a problem. They may be visible on your local net, but are barely so over the internet. A ping to that address yields no replies. A traceroute starts looking, but I finally shut it down, as it was not getting to the address. It did make it half a dozen hops or so, so I appeared to have an idea of where to go.
 
Yes, it is fixed. The icons are there immediately now! Thanks Jim, and thanks Morpheus who first pointed out this problem.
 
Could we get the previous and next thread buttons placed at the top of the thread also.
I like to scan the postings. If the buttons where on top when I am browsing it would allow me to skip over old threads I have looked at through a search without scrolling to the bottom of the thread. Like the title of the thread say's this is just my opinion.
