Using Smilies

Using smilies is a great way of expressing various emotions. And it's super-easy to do. Just click the smilie you want to use, remembering that it will appear at the end of all the text you've already written. But once you see how easy it is to type in the code, you won't be clicking icons for long!

Here are the codes for the various smilies:

[bones] Skull and bones! 
[confused] Trepidation, uncertainty! 
[cool] Shades, man... Cool! 
[cry] Real tears! 
[eek] Total shock! 
[evil] For the devil inside... 
[frown] Unhappy, disapproval! 
[grin] Cheshire Cat style! 
[bounce] Too excited to sit still! 
[lol] A chuckle a day... 

[mad] Was it something I said?
[nonsense] But adorable and fun! 
[oops] Red-faced embarrassment! 
[rolleyes] Yea, right! 
[smile] Give freely -they're contagious!
[tongue] "So there!" style raspberries! 
[wink] You sly fox, you! 
[ninja] Ready to "Enter the Dragon"!

Now remember, using these smilies is supposed to be fun. So it's okay to make mistakes. After posting a message in the forum, if you see something you need to change, just click the little button that has a red "e" on it underneath the message you posted. You'll be taken right back in to the text area to edit it.
