Cute? Maybe... but I thought my site had been hacked. Cute? I don't think so... because the Smiley doesn't show up when working on my site from my primary computer (where I installed the plugin from). The smiley only shows up to visitors and I only noticed once I viewed my website while traveling. WTF. This sure makes it seem like an effort to hide the smiley, if so why? And why not tell us about it and allow control? I have to seriously question what this plugins true goals are. Uninstalled for me until I find out. Christopher – thanks for this post. Cute?

Hope that make sense!
