Not staying logged in

[DirtyLiberal]

Okay, i might be just plain stupid here. I often am, so please don't mind me, if that is indeed the case.
Before, i was able to stay permanently logged in here, but now every time i close the forum and come back, i have to log in again. It's not that big of an issue, but it kinda bugs me. Is there something i am doing wrong? I don't see a ticky box, where i can do the "always stay logged in" thingie... I don't remember if it was there before, but i know i was always logged in.
Again, sorry if it's just me being blind and/or stupid 

Also, i have a question. Is it ok if i use my own emoticons? Like ones hosted on my photosharing account. I have a hard time expressing what i mean without emoticons sometimes, and the ones here are not enough for me. Not saying you should change the ones you have, just wanna know if it's ok if i use my own.

I had a problem with staying logged in a while back myself. Then suddenly it just started working again and I don't think I did anything different. Like you said, there is no ticky box on the main page but if you click the login link in the menu there is one. Try that, see if it helps

Your own emoticons sounds fine to me.

Oh, ok, going through the menu on top seems to have done the trick . Thanks!

Is that emoticon fine or is it too big?

[yuichen]

Ah good!

It is a bit on the big side. Perhaps we should get Kay's feeling on it.

As long as it's just you using them,I don't mind.

I'll try not use them, unless i really need one
