If one looks at the "Recent Posts" box on the front page of the forum, about 90% of the way down the page, one sees an original post by our esteemed colleague Ptarmigan, referring to a news story.
Usually to the left side, there's an icon of what resembles a crooked piece of paper, but Ptarmigan has replaced that with an unhappy face.
I've seen asdf do this too.
How's that done?
