RE: Auto installers of smilies HELP
Where the icons are stored, prior to adding them to messenger, I dunno; it depends on the package... In some packages, they are simple saved within a zipfile or in some within a resourcefile (use reshack to extract that). Then there are packages which make it realy hard to rip the icons out without installing them....
But after they are installed (added to messenger), every single icon is always stored as a PNG in your messenger settings-directory:
for XP, Win2k, NT this is:
\Documents and Settings\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<that ID number thingie>\CustomEmoticons
for 9x (with profiles) this is:
\WINDOWS\Profiles\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\CustomEmoticons
for 9x (without profiles) this is:
\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\CustomEmoticons
The icons are named TFR<number>.tmp or TFR<number>.dat, but are in fact just normal PNG files. So you can copy all those files to another directory and rename all the files to "*.png".
