    [​IMG] There's a small [​IMG] icon above your avatar/portrait in every post that you can now use to set your current mood - similar to Facebook. It's an addition of no great importance but I think it's fun to have.

    Right now I still need to work out some kinks with it (yes, I know about the unselectable N/A category) and I will be adding more icon options as soon as it's working properly.

    I'll also be adding the mood selection to the top of every page so you don't need to hunt for your posts to set your moods.

    Btw, there's a log of your mood changes in your profile, under the "Status Changes" tab.

    Works okay in Firefox.

    Doesn't seem to be working for me in IE9. I click on the icon and see a javascript link that says cancel (which works), another that say N/A (does nothing) and another that says Blue (does nothing). So my only option is to hit cancel.

    In Firefox I see a dropdown with all the moods and their associated icons. Now I can let the world know about my perpetually annoyed mood. Better would have been mildly annoyed, but meh, annoyed gets the job done.

    Hmm, here's another quirky thing. In Firefox (v5) if I click on the edit icon, then the cancel link, then the edit icon again, I see an additional dropdown arrow to set my mood. I did this 5 times in a row and end up with 5 dropdown arrows.

    All of the the dropdowns seem to be functional, so this isn't breaking anything, but I'm pretty sure this is not intended.

    Still, it's a fun addition. :)

    Heh, yea, same thing happens in Firefox 4 - just tried it myself. I think I'll have to replace this mod with another one with the same functionality - this one's just too buggy.

    It's a bit too... I don't know, I just don't like these type of smiles. And the boxes are too colourful for me. I prefer simple and no frills.

    Maybe an option to just show "I am"? ;)

    Why can I only choose from "blue" or "n/a" for my mood?

    Probably because you are using IE9 like I am. See Marceror's post (thread post #2) above).

    Hopefully I'll get fixes for all the bugs in the next day or two.

    Any update on this? Like Shoshino, I don't see any icon (although I can see other people's mood). I'm using Firefox, so I don't know if it's just me being stupid - Marceror got his to work just fine.

    Still waiting on the mod maker to provide the fixes... you need to find a post other than your last one made via Quick Reply. Mood doesn't show in your most recent post made via the Quick Reply.

    OK, but I don't get the little icon you say I should be seeing even on any of the posts I have reviewed - even in threads that I started - so it's not just an issue of using the quick reply feature.

    I don't see that icon in ANY post.

    You can get to it via your profile, but it's still the same N/A-Blue stuff. I assume that's the as yet unresolved IE issue detailed above.

    I could see the selection thingy in my posts last week for a while, but not anymore. It was also in my profile, though I can't seem to get to it at the moment either. This is all in Firefox, btw.

    Anyway, it doesn't really matter to me, as I'll probably won't be using it anyway.

    Can you see it now? I made a change a while ago that may have only hidden the icon for those who haven't set a mod up to that point. I reversed that so it should show in posts now.
