nectarine Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'd like to add a smiley to the end of my message, but I click on the icon I want but it doesn't add to my message. Very odd ... it works in some other forums of which I am a member. I'm using Google Chrome as my browser ... does that make a difference.OK, I'm trying again to add a smiley HERE (nope nothing came out) but don't think it has added at all. Help ... my posts are so dull and boring without something to cheer them up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 This is a smiley test on Chrome...Unfortunately, the only smileys (icons) I see with Chrome are the post icons, at the bottoms of the box. I cannot see the styling bar, which is where the text smileys are:[IMG]http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q296/clair46/21a50030.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nectarine Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 yes I don't have a styling bar ... wonder why? Is it a Google Chrome thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancer Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Bizaarely if you click on the smilies at the bottom they dont post, it would appear that they are just there to show you what they look like and if you hover over themthen you will know what name to select from the "insert smiley" drop down from the top of the screen.bloomin stupid but I think its always been like that!

cooperlola Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Well it appears, Chancer, that the post smilies still work in a similar way - although whether they always popped out of the blue (or should I say red?) like that I can't remember.

Balham Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I had never been able to get a smiley in here, always used those that are available form other sites like [img]http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/cool/cool0012.gifg[/img] and typing in the img bit. Though eve nthat isn't working as seen by the fact the smiley is not visible.[8-) This one I tried from here and it didn't work, hey ho . . .

nectarine Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 no I haven't got a drop-down box, just the smilies at the end and so nothing appears in the message box ... is it a Google Chrome thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerdesal Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I don't have a 'drop down box' either. Using Chrome as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Just tried to use IE to see if it was different. Won't let me log in, refuses to accept any passwords, Forum Admin sent new password but that doesn't work either.I guess I will just not bother - life is too short to worry about smilies.

Rabbie Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Just done a quick test. Insert Smiley seems to work with IE9 and Firefox[:)] but doesn't appear with Chrome[:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
