Fixed border problem around smiley icons
Fixed border problem around smiley icons. Default blogspot CSS has a border around the image, but Small Apple doesn't have that.
Note: Small Apple uses JavaScript to map the smiley class to gif.

Reward points make a difference
A comparison of the rewards from the big three oil companies.
Assumptions:
- Pump formula 98
- $1.93/litre (3 Feb 2009)
- 12% discount (5% station + 7% credit card)
- Spend $1,000
- The reward points is used to redeem petrol voucher
| Caltex | 1 Thanks! point per litre. 1400 points for $40 petrol voucher. | 589 points ($1000 / (1.93 * 0.88)) Equivalent to $16.80 petrol voucher. |
| ExxonMobil | 1 Smiles point for every $1.25 spent. 750 points for $30 petrol voucher. | 800 points ($1000 / 1.25) Equivalent to $32 petrol voucher. |
| Shell | 1 Escape point per litre. 600 points for $20 petrol voucher. | 589 points ($1000 / (1.93 * 0.88)) Equivalent to $19.60 petrol voucher. |
As you can see, ExxonMobil has the best reward based on the current assumptions. The higher the price, the better the reward. However, if the price is very low, say $1/litre, then Shell has the best reward, and Caltex and ExxonMobil are about the same.
