Some of the smilies work very simply as in: o) :)

Could we add a nose to the shortcut? :-o :-)

the reason i ask is that if you ever put a smiley in parenthesis... ( :wink: ) it will look (:wink:)

If this is too much trouble, or a hassle for those who have been around awhile, i can work around it. Perhaps I'm the only one who has this problem, and I'll just deal, but maybe others do too?

thanks
Jessica

Try without the spaces between the smiley and the parenthesis. It's no big deal. :)

Hahaha, I got it. But, I think it automatically adds space between, right?

Jessica, Can you do me a big favor? I am just not a smilie expert
Can you put each smile and a shortcut that it should have ??? Here as a post, and I will fix them all together. Right now they are a mess. The reason for the mess is the switch from one system to another, smilies got imported and mixed w/the ones on the system already, and all the shortcuts got erased.

CMD, I wish it did, but it doesn't for me. Maybe it's a mod priviledge :biggrin:

Nah, Ed is not that thoughtful. We don't have any mod priviledge. :evil: :evil: :confused: :neutral: :(

Then what's good being a mod? :lol:

Do you at least get a hammer to beat miscreants with? :wink: :biggrin:

Errmm..... what's good? Ehh.... brain storm, scratch head, and pull off few left hairs.
Well, Do you at least get a hammer to beat miscreants with?, this is the part I hate most. But, most of the time we are much pretty a harmony community.

hehehe...

Yeah, I know that. I mod/admin on another forum and that is the most distasteful part. This seems like a great place though, I'm enjoying it :biggrin:

LOL, there are plenty of priveleges :) Oh, sorry, I thought you meant duties :)

yeah, we have had it ok so far, there was one big incident recently, but the person does not hang out here much :)

hehehehe.. wonder why? :biggrin:

Just so that you know it's available, I do have links to the dark underworld who love to act as antitroll when the troll rules get broken. :innocent: :biggrin: But, I'm sure that won't be necessary (heck, you may have your own links as well).

ya'll are doing a great job. :).


((Now if only we can get Ed to get my name straight :wink::lol: ))

OK, you smilie experts....I can't seem to be able to put any smilies into my posts.

Is there a trick to it? I see the smilie icon on the top of the toolbar next to the font color but does nothing when I click on it. Am I missing something?

I dont see a smile Icon next to colors :) But on the right of the post, there is a small Smiles block with 15 or so, and you can click MORE to see the rest.

Jessica (not Jennifer :) ) I know I have not done the smiles thing yet. I am trying to figure them out. I thought most had a shortcut that uses dots and )'s and not :name: . Is that not the way?

I have got to confess, the availability or not of smilies does not keep me awake of nights.

ah, you want those. I can dig them up. It doesn't really matter if you use :name: I just wanted to get the noses in on a few that you had to help with borking up messages with smilies that weren't meant to be, even if most people are smart enough to realize that. Without the ability to edit posts after they are sent (a 5minute edit/delete interval would be awesome, btw, longer ones just seem a pain)

That's not what I have in my reply window.....Is it something in my settings?

you need to "go advanced" rather than use the quick reply. then they should be sitting happily on the right screen.

how about now, lchsu? I changed your editor setting to Standard!

btw, you were talking about regular reply, NOT quick reply, right, there are no smilies displayed in quick reply.
