a limit on the number of emoticons u can add?! by zaidgs on 02-11-2005 at 12:48 AM
it seems like i reached a limit of 300 while adding emoticons to msn messenger; has anyone been able to add more than 300 emoticons to msn 7.0.425??
this seemed possible in msn6.2 (i guess)

I don't care how many emoticons MSN Messenger can add.
Plus! can add unlimited number of emoticons

hehe, funny! how can u add to plus more than what messenger itself can add

Somewhere in your computer I think.
You can see the Custom Emoticons description in your Plus! preferences

And I thought I had a lot of emoticons added? O.o
As far as I know, it is unlimited, maybe contact MSN and ask?

thats what i find odd, that i dont remember anyone hitting a limit using msn6.2, but guess no one has actually tried it for msn7.0 because most batch emoticons adders hav adware... but as i said i kind off hit a limit, so wanna check if there is smthn wrong going on, or the limit is actually there!!

yer i had the same problem... i could only add like 235(i think) n then would allow no more, i still havt managed 2 find a way around this problem

quote:r u sure that the number is close to this one, cuz i find it odd if the limit was there on purpose then it should not differ from one user to another, unless this limit is created by a bug in msn

cuz the message didnt tell me u reached a limit but it said: "the file u selected is not a valid gif file. please choose another file." which is surely meaningless (there was nthn wrong with the gif) bcuz i couldnt add any emoticon even those i previously could. then i tried removing emoticons, and i could add emoticons back again without a problem until i reach that limit again, say i removed two, then i can add two and thats it, the message would appear back again. a personal guess, msn7 has a problem with "index.dat" (guess that the file that contains the info) containing more enteries than a certain limit......

Yeah, me too. 235 (I didn't count them, just the emo packs I added), and after that I got the invalid file message.
Maybe they'll fix this in the next release. 
RE: a limit on the number of emoticons u can add?! by zaidgs on 02-14-2005 at 10:18 PM
yes, hope this was just a bug, not a limitation
RE: a limit on the number of emoticons u can add?! by haydos on 02-15-2005 at 08:04 AM
Yeah i hope that this is changed because i sometimes use fonts where each letter is a custom emoticon so that takes up a lot of the 235 (counted and checked the number this time)
