Boo Hoo my favourite smilie has gone and has been replaced with this one :| I can't see when I would ever want to use this ?smilie? Can we have the old one back please? Anyone else miss it?
 
Its a smilie that conveys a dry sense of humour (closed-mouth smile).
 
We are a bit confused as we have only ever had these two....... :) and :D There is also the confused one as here....... :?

I can assure you it existed. It appeared after these two :D :) (its not this one by the way :wink:)
The posts I used it in have been deleted as they were in the word association game.

Oh well. We have never noticed......too busy. We will check with Admin as we have no knowledge that there have been any changes to the Smilies........nothing new there !! :wink:

You can always add your own from elsewhere on the interweb daisy

Thanks Sid but I don't know how to do that, I'm a computer dunce! Could you explain how to do it in non-technical terms so even I can understand? :?

Thanks Ian, couldnt have put it better myself.

QUOTE "Ctrl/v to paste the image location" to keep things simple though I would recommend a left click and then click 'Paste' unless you are familiar with keyboard shortcuts

I put a few smileys that I have collected over the years onto a page for my own use but your very welcome to use them too.

I think the handbags smiley might be appropriate for a carb wars thread

Thanks Sid and Ian.

A word of caution to those not so experienced computer users. Some of the smilie sites on the net can let viruses and all sorts of things onto your computer. Some, if you have to download the program, are exceedingly difficult to get rid of again !! :shock:

Thanks Sid and Ian for smilies and instructions which I will try to follow tomorrow.
Thanks Sue for warning. I assume Sid's and Ian's sites are safe though.

I've used that forum for years without problems - there is nothing to download.

The warning to forum users was in general terms.....it was not aimed specifically at anybody's favourite site. I too as a PC Specialist know that some of these 'Smilie' sites can and do cause problems. Took me ages to get rid of one and that was with some of the tools I have available to me !

If any of the links that IanD and Sid had posted were questionable, then they would have simply been deleted.
