Smiley Problem

    Having a problem, when I post in After Hours, my smileys appear as a link instead of the actual smiley.

    How are you adding smileys to your posts? Are you using the actual text, such as :), are you pasting them from somewhere else, or are you using the buttons on the text editors?

    Dragging them from the side of the text box, same way i did for the post above, but that seems to be fine.

    As far as i remember, I've only tried to do it with the pacman smiley pacman.gif if that makes a difference.

    Instead of dragging it from the text box, all you need to do is click on the icon and it adds the text automatically to the post.

    Dragging it from the text box causes it to be embedded as an image instead of being processed as a normal smiley. If you don't know what that means, don't worry. Just click it in future. :)

    Thanks for that, I know what it means alright. makes sense since images embedding isnt allowed in After Hours.

    Cheers.
