Please can someone tell me how to add icons into a post

sherry, 12 May, 2008 at 10:10 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 25

Everytime I try the icon goes into the title heading. How do you get the 'old' style icons into the main post?

I'm really trying to get the hang of this but failing lol.

Thanks

    ?

    It appears as though the codes for the old smileys are the same, there's just an extra set of square brackets around them.

    No you dont have to type in the code. I am using the quick reply option. All the smilies are under the smiley face on the formatting line above where you type the text. If you hover your mouse over the smiley you see 'insert smiley' and then once you click it it opens up the smileys box.

    ?

    Yes, I can see those ones, but I can't see the old icons like this one ? - unless I reply properly and go to the next tab along. Even then, it posts it into the title unless I physically put the code into the reply box.

    I don't get that box Kimmy. I can see about a dozen icons and the top of a few more but not the old sytle ones. I've hovered over the smiley face but nothing happens.

    I will try ? - that was using 2 brackets

    Looks like a bug to me. I think the add smilie dialog should be slightly bigger to show more than 2.5 columns of smilies.
