I too again see stars, so I assume it was just the forum playing tricks on me. Still interesting to hear there are no skins with that function, which means I have no idea what went wrong.
I'm used to getting my internet temporarily broken though, so that pages load incorrectly. But everything BUT the stars worked that day I posted so I thought it was just another change on the site.
Oh well, it was fun to see it, I hope it happens again sometime so I can screenshot it.
