<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>As I read the many threads on CC, I cannot understand how you put some quotes in grey blocks, and how to add a smiley face. Can someone please explain that to me? Sorry to take up your time with such drivel, but it irks me that I don't know how to do those things, and I like the way it looks. Thanks.</p>
<p>When you post, click the "go advanced" button, at the very bottom of that page, you can click on the smilies and it gives instructions ;)</p>
<p>Go to the main page....click on FAQ and then posting & reading messages. If you need explanations following your reading...which you might....come back and folks will help you. Not a problem.</p>
<p>for the gray quote boxes, type
[quote ]
insert text here
[/quote ]
without the space before the close bracket. It should look like this:
[quote]
insert text here
[/quote]
</p>
<p>For the smily face, type <colon> <open pararenthisis="">
Should look like this: :)</open></colon></p>
<p>Thanks. I got the smiley faces down...now just working on the shading thing, not so easy!</p>
<p>Im not getting the smilies any more (SADFACE) :(</p>
<p>Anybody else? :confused:</p>
<p>My "disable smilies in text" box is NOT checked.. so what gives? :)</p>
<p>Anything I put after a colon just disappears... : : : :)</p>
<p>rolleyes inside colons :rolleyes:
eek inside colons :eek:
mad inside colons :mad:</p>
<p>:cool:
OK, why isn't that a smiley?</p>
<p>that is a smiley :eek:</p>
<p>Hmmm...... [ quote="Anybody" ] Hmmm..... [ /quote ]</p>
<p>
Hmmm.....
