Not sure but I think it is graphics in general.

I think it has always been limited to 8...

Yes, the limit on the number of graphics in a message has always been 8. Not just smileys. URL referenced graphics of any sort.

Which allow to express 8^8 types of emotions (if I'm not mistaken with my math)

Still think it's too limitating?

Edit: ahh, you meant the number of graphics in msgs. Sorry, I get it wrong then.

Well, there are 11 different smilies that are available here (without linking to an external image). So the number of possible combination should be 11^8.

Ok, I'll test again, with more than 8 of the same image... but I got it before with 9 smileys, and several were repeats...

Begin test...

End test...

It only lets me do 8 total, of ANY image. I tried ten and it gave me the error message.

And I seem to remember using each smiley at least once in a posting about a year or two ago...
