Maybe they don't like you? :p


Seriously, try making a post with only a couple smilies, nothing else. Let's see what it shows. Something that few people notice is that the smilies add spaces before and after them which MUST be there for them to work.

Give it another try. Also make sure javascript is enabled...

Oh, and make sure that smilies are enabled in posts in your forum control panel.

Since they don't do anything, I would assume that you don't have javascript enabled on your browser. The entire smilie function is javascript controlled.

What happens if you try clicking on the CHECK MESSAGE LINK right above the smilies? Does that not work either?

What browser are you using and what version.

Thanks.
