 Hello.

 Sometimes, you may want to save a custom emoticon/smiley (Save as...),
 such as if you wanted a local copy of a file that you otherwise previously
 added to your collection of smileys by using "Add custom smiley..." This
 will fail if you do it in your own conversation window with the following
 dialog:

 "Unrecognised file type\n\nDefaulting to PNG"

 Shouldn't all custom emoticons be treated consistently, the same way,
 irrespective of whether you have it already in your library, or whether
 it's coming from you or someone else, once it's in a conversation window?

 This is probably less than just cosmetic though, it's not a feature I use
 a lot nor would expect anyone to. I just noticed it by mistake.

 If I were really desperate, I could probably go look where the file is
 saved in my .purple directory. I've only checked this on MSN.
