Hi everyone. I know there is a page that shows how to place a wide variety of smilies into your posts, but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone direct me to it? Thanks so much!

Hi, SandyWeb! See above when typing your post, two gray rows of things? And in the top row is a smiling face? Click on it & you'll find all the fun smilies & their codes along side them. Well, that's how it works with my cell phone. I hope that works for you.

If you're on a computer, you should see the smiley face icon with a down arrow above the text box. Click on that for commonly used smilies. If you scroll to the bottom, you can click Show all smilies and see a larger variety.

I don't have two grey rows. And definitely no smiling face. Lol. I think the Ad Blocker on my computer is not allowing a number of options with this site. Thanks for trying to help, though.

I'm on a computer, not a phone, and I don't see a smiley face icon. The only thing I can think of is that Ad Blocker is not showing the fun stuff. Lol.

I found a page under the FAQ section that shows all the smilies with their codes. It's quite long. Maybe I'll print it out and use some of them.

Thanks for trying to help.

Do you see the bold, italics, and underlines? It's on that same line.

No, I don't see anything. I'm just one of those unlucky few who have something blocking all the fun stuff. Lol. Thanks for trying to help, though.

Hi, Sandy! I was thinking, maybe what we can do with our devices depends on our server. Can you ask someone at the company that serves your computer how to access MSF's emojis? I have faith that this problem will get solved.

Looks like you might have the smiles turned off. If you scroll down to the bottom, there's a setting where you can turn them on and off.

I just noticed your message. No, I just scrolled down to the bottom of the page. It shows that Smilies is ON.

I read under FAQ that having an Ad Blocker can cause some features not to work. I guess that means I don't get that line that shows Smilies, italics, etc....plus Chat doesn't work. I really wanted to chat in real time.

Thanks for trying to help.
