I may be a little slow, but I can't figure out how you all get those cute funny faces from? I have searched & searched this entire forum & can't find them. Also, how do you underline or make different fonts & colors?!? Have I completely lost it? Please tell me there are others out there who don't know how to do this either.

Help!!!

Diane, down at the bottom where it says, Quick Reply, click on GO ADVANCED. They are there.

Look at the message box at the bottom of the page (where you type quick replys). Hit that little button that says "Go Advanced". You can get smilies there (click more button if you don't see what you want, there are a bunch!). More fonts and colors are also available on the advanced page or if you just want another color you can click the dropdown icon beside the big "A" on the quick reply screen.

Okay, I am on the GO ADVANCED area (which I have been to several times) & there are only 10 smilies that I can choose from at the bottom & they don't put them in the body of your message, only at the top. There are no other drop down icons to choose from or anything!! There's no big A on the quick reply screen. I want the dancing bananas!!! I am very computer illiterate & I PROMISE I am not slow. :bananapowerslide: (really!!!!!)

Is it just my computer?!? I am so confused!!!!

When you get to the advanced area:

There should be a link for [More] smilies in the bottom left corner of the smiley box: it will open a new window with ALOT of smilies.

Did you find the font and color things on the Advanced page?

On the quick reply page (and Advanced) the big A is in the toolbar right above where you are typing. It has a line under it that will turn the color you select. Or at least it is on my screen. Let me know if this works.

If the smiles aren't where you want them once they are in the body of your message, just select them by clicking on them, then copy/paste them somewhere else. Best to use keyboard commands for this: Ctrl+<CTRL>C then Ctrl+<CTRL>V. Remember, smilies will go wherever your cuser is when you click on them.
