    +++++++ Changed Smilie tab order and reduced the number of Simple Smilies ++++++++++++

    I figured most of the custom Lakers Smilies seem to be more popular, so I changed the order to have them first, moved the Simple Smilies to the last tab, and greatly reduced the number to just the ones that get used all the time.

    +++++++++++ Like Conversations +++++++++++

    I added an addon that allows you to like a message in a conversation the same as you would in a thread. This allows you to acknowledge you saw a post and liked it without having to reply.

    +++++++++++++++ Tapatalk Upgraded ++++++++++++++++

    I upgraded from Tapatalk 2.3 to Tapatalk 3.2.1

    I checked the app, and it seems to be working fine. Let me know if you see any technical issues that didn't arise in the older version before the upgrade.

    ++++++++++++++ Disabled Game Day and Library ++++++++++++++

    No one used the Game Day section to post about games once the Game Time messenger was up and running, so I disabled it. It can be re enabled if needed, but it's a cleaner look without it.

    Thk and I are looking into having that Library section up and running with Player and team stats, but for the moment, it is disable as well.

    +++++++++++++++ Page Load Time Improved ++++++++++++++

    Or it should be. I installed an addon that should defer Java script loading for pages, so the pages should load faster.

    Please let me know if pages are loading noticeably slower.

    I am a vet though... so I should have been at least a starter, by Boron's logic.

    I win.

    P.S.

    I don't really care.

    +++++++++++++++++ Stats Tab Added +++++++++++++++++++

    Once again, thank @thkthebest for this one.

    He has created a fantastically rich stats area for checking Lakers Player and team stats all the way back to the 96-97 season.

    Just click on the "Stats" tab at the top of the page to see all the searchable information

    PS: I'm still tweaking some of the colors for the Stats area in some of the Themes. All themes will be set correctly in time.

    I joined a new Ad network that targets sports related websites.

    Hopefully now the Ad content will be a little more relevant to most of you.
