Errrrm, that was the point. That the only difference between a message showing a Rogues Smiley and one that does not, is 3 bytes. Those three bytes attributes to the : _ : that are different in my Rogues sig and my non-Rogues sig. I don't see where it was cheating if that was the exact point I was trying to convey. Technically, I didn't have to force people to use the : _ : in their Rogues Smiley handle. I could have let them just use their normal sig "name", and then there would be *absolutely* no difference whatsoever in message size. However, we've discovered it to be poor practice to not make the Rogues Smiley handle unique (i.e. the whole (c) Copyright being replaced by a coffee cup.) -- :Leif_Gregory: (TB list moderator and fellow end user).
