I use the

smilie quite a lot. It's not on the quick reply smilies bunch, so I have to open up the main smilies list. For some reason it always takes me ages to find it

(see

) Please could it be added to the short list on the quick reply screen?

(If you agree, and if it can't be added without replacing another one, then I could live without dizzy, which is used slightly less than the others I think. If you don't agree, well then just ignore this bit

)

I'll have a think...

Thanks

Charlotte · 14-02-2008, 13:41

Found another one ... could you also add

please?

***Steve*** · 14-02-2008, 14:05

Nope, Sorry.

Every time we change one it means another has to be replaced and while you or I may prefer one set to be used, moving them around may cause others more inconvenience. Unfortunately with stuff like this we can't please all of the people all of the time.

We already added the smilie drop down into the quick reply box for convenience (on standard VB its not available until you go to the advanced editor page) and I was happy to change the order once, but beyond that you'll have to follow the 'more smilies' link or learn to remember the codes.

Thanks for understanding

That's "woot", (and I can't believe I'm actually going to seriously answer this but.....it's an alternative to "yay!"

Crew...do you think we need an FAQ on smilies?

It's a kind of celebration dance, it can be seen in the flesh in several Eddie Murphy films (inc. Beverly Hills Cop III + The Nutty Professor, I think

)

Thanks, I think. I am off to a sales meeting in Switzerland next week. Some Americans colleagues will be there. I wonder if I can work "WOOT!" into the presentations

.

Re FAQ. What you really could do with is putting the link to the FAQs on the top menu bar next to instead of under Quick Links. This would be especially useful for new members who are looking for how to get pictures into the sharing and critique forums.

I like smilies, there are so many I've not yet had the chance or right occasion to use them in yet. Perhaps I shall aim to use a new smilie every week.

Didn't notice the drop down either - handy little thing isn't it!

Smilies are useful. They're an excellent gauge of a posters sanity - or lack thereof.
