ails, I’m having the same issue with Custom Smilies. As with you, the smilies are working fine for posts and pages, but I’m also getting a parse error when attempting to leave a comment. I’ve tried setting the CHMOD of the init.php file to 777 as the author suggested, and have also tried a reinstall of the files. But I continue to experience the parse error.
I know this was working for me correctly in WP 2.3.3 — but not now under WP 2.5.
Does anyone have a thought on correcting this issue? I see there have been a number of downloads but almost no other similar reports. So is there possibly something quite simple that we’ve overlooked?
Thanks.

Hi there DebNCgal, i noticed there is quite a few posts regarding the same issue as us, yet there still isn’t any replies on how to fix this problem.
Hey there this is a problem I had as well and was able to fix it easily. If you copied and paste the code for your comments.php page from the custom_smilies istallation page the code:
<?phpif ( function_exists(cs_print_smilies) ) {cs_print_smilies();}?>
is wrong there should be a space between php and if like this:
<?php if ( function_exists(cs_print_smilies) ) {cs_print_smilies();}?>
That seemed to clear up this issue for me! Hope it helps!
