Smileys

Where do people get all those wonderful smileys posted recently and how are they used?

Hi Noreen,

Mine are from a Firefox add-on, I cannot for the life of me remember where or how I added it tho', one of the site " geeks " will no doubt tell you more.

Noreen, look at the second "sticky" in the Natter section!

Rik · Nov 04, 2007, 11:00:56

Hi Noreen

The Firefox addon that In is referring to is here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/375

I also use the BestSmileys website:

http://www.bestsmileys.com/pageindex.htm

Plus our own set, the sticky that Jillian is referring to.

HTH

There you are Noreen, I told you one of the " site geeks " would know..

Thanks Rik.

I always thought I was a site for sore eyes?

It's worth noting with Smiley Xtra that it requires updating via the Tools > Add-ons menu, but can be set in these options to auto update.

I just explored via google and thought the best one is the one that Rik said http://www.bestsmileys.com/pageindex.htm
which gives the link that you need for the post so it's a simple copy and paste job.

Thanks for your replies. I did know about the "sticky smileys" and I don't use Firefox. Ann's link gives a page of more links so I'm still not sure about this. I don't really know whether smileys can be dangerous so are any smileys from any of those links safe to use?

Rik · Nov 04, 2007, 12:13:57

The BestSmileys site is perfectly safe, Noreen.

Wow! I didnt know this, now you've done it. Cue fireworks

Rik · Nov 04, 2007, 12:26:02

You're a day early, mate.

Or a day late with the amount of fireworks going off around here last night.

Not round here, you should have tried going to sleep round here last night and Friday night...

Inactive - I'm beaten to it again!

Rik · Nov 04, 2007, 12:32:51

Here, they start in October and run though to the following October - with the occasional peak, like November, December, January...

Noreen · Nov 04, 2007, 12:44:19

Thank you all.

Rik · Nov 04, 2007, 12:45:27

Enjoy sparkling even more, Noreen.
