How to Make Smileys Appear in a Post?

[George Tyndall]

Ron, how do I get the smileys on the "View more smilies" page into a post?

Thank you.

All you should have to do is click on them George.

At times I do find that they don't always do that however.
Sometimes the smilie abbreviations appear at the top of the smilie page for some reason.
So then I just copy the text and paste it into my post. That hasn't been happening to me for quite some time but it used to.

I have to wait until the whole "more smilies" file downloads before I can use any of them.

It shouldn't take too long. The longest it has taken me is 2 or 3 minutes with a slow connection.
Although I do remember giving up a few times when I was using an air card with a terrible connection
