Default Icons on BB Forum

Please Login to Remove!

This is not a big issue, but when I check an icon box to go along with my posts on this Forum it doesn't show up. Do I need a special setting for the icons (smileys, etc) to work?

Talking <-- See the icon here? This is a Post Icon

You selected the Post Icons image. That puts a different icon next to the title of the Post. Just click on the smiles to add them to the message body.

Animated gifs are allowed, but have to fit cetain size restrictions and must be hosted else where. Go to User CP > Edit Avatar > Enter link to animated gif > Save.

Personally, I like your flaming monkey head. I dont care for the animated avatars myself. They are distracting when trying to read the posts.

Click on the QUOTE button or the 'Go Advanced' button... they are on the right-side of the full input box. Its best to just learn the more commonly used ones and then using those combinations through the quick reply box.

Clicked on "QUOTE" and still don't see any smilies. I may be having a senior moment. I assume the "full input box" is what I am typing in to send this reply.
What am I missing?

chrisnol - I think I figured out why your not seeing smiles. Your account is set to not show Enhanced (WYSIWYG) Editor Toolbar. You need to go to the User CP and modify your account. If you cant find the setting, I can change it for you.

Too much java for sure. Living in Seattle all residents are required two cups a day by law.

HAHA! Actually the avatar that used to bug me the most was one that jibi used to use. It was the smiley that wore glasses that slipped off the nose while typing on a PC. I was so happy when he changed it. I will probably be kicking myself for saying anything when he switches back to it tomorrow.
