Another smilie question ...

Can anyone tell me how to get ":)" into my generic smilie list, without having to go into the "extras" list?

Thanks.

    You can just type :)

    But the smilie won't appear until you post

    The full list of codes is here

    There's another way as well.

    The Post Icons below the reply box are draggable.

    You can put your cusor where you want the smilie to appear then drag the smilie into the reply box

    I go into 'Go advanced'

    Then tried to drag from the icons under 'Post Icons' with blank dots to mark if you want to use them, but just get a 'not allowed' sign.

    Very confusing.....
