I noticed the "Insert emoticon" box looked a little strange yesterday and it's even worse today.
I'm using FF 7 and just cleared my cache which didn't make any difference.
Maybe there are too many emoticons crammed into a box that is too small? I've noticed for the past month or so the yellow smilies aren't even round anymore.

I saw it also, I just picked the one I wanted and figured it was an issue with my browser loading it slower.

Thanks for finding and reporting this.
I was able to reproduce the issue and will pass this on to the tech team.
As soon as I get an update I will let everyone know.

YW Phil, glad others posted they were seeing something similar, and thanks notifying the tech team.
Yeah SJ, normally closing the emoticon box down and opening it back up normally clears the problem. But not this time and I see the same thing I posted in my screen shot every time it opens.
PS. Thanks for the shot doc (pun)! LOL.

On XP/IE8 (old laptop) I was getting little boxes and picture place-holder icons for the missing emoticons (like what you see when waiting for a gallery picture to be approved). I think it is because they're trying to add some new ones as the ones that are missing are ones I don't seem to remember being available previously.
frustrated
, embarrassed
, lol
, from each group,
and heart
.
It's been like this for at least a couple of days
(if these are new emoticons, i wonder why they're adding "frustrated"? for the CS callers maybe?

i got the same thing with FF9.0. I thought it was because I got not have googleapis.com enabled. It also opens a new tab for emoticons I have to close.
