Creative Design Studio (RKR4CDS)OK, feeling a bit off-center today, so weird thoughts waft through...
This is the only board/list that I'm on that replaces the smilies for words that describe the mood.
I usually lose the impact of the next sentence while my mind wanders off on it's own, to interpret and interject the words :clap: :smile: 
:frustrated:, etc... into a writer's thoughts.
Seeing the actual icon just lends itself to the overall mood of the writer rather than stopping at every word and actually reading it.
Are these purposely set up in reverse, to show the word rather than the 'mood'? Is it me or is it me????
....... or do I mean :o)
I typed that faster - with my 1 typing finger - than it takes to figure out what each of those icons will reveal in words instead of just pasting a pic of itself.
Creeping back under the rock in my dark, dark closet....
Creative Design Studio (RKR4CDS)And going into another thread, 'pick me up by Shantell', Heather's post has real icons, though not the ones seen here , and everyone else's reply has the words.
How's you do that??!!!!
Flying Fur Studiosha ha ha
Bobbie, go here. Lots of awsome smilies 
Back Road BearsHee Hee! 
As time has gone by here at TT we went from having a dozen or so yellow smiley faces with various 'moods' to the bear heads AND smileys with more moods that we really needed!! (Thanks, Quy!) Like the dancing face, pray face and clap face. Most of us have 'grown' with the faces and they are second nature to either 'click' into our text or type in.
The 'other' icons, not found above are found on other websites where the 'text' for the icon is cut and pasted into the post here. Here is one such website: http://www.cosgan.de/smilie.php?wahl=2&ziel=frech Just click on the desired smiley or icon you want and at the bottom will be the text in [img]brackets... this is the text you'll paste here. It's nothing fast quick and simple but as most of us are moody (I mean that in a good way) and exoressive we find the faces help 'express ourselves'.

Oh, my gosh, he's so cool, Heather! I hadn't seen him... haven't taken the time to sift through them all!

Please check your setting under Profile -> Display -> "Show smilies as graphic icons" is checked.

Flying Fur StudiosKim................he's on that site, in the animals section. 
Creative Design Studio (RKR4CDS)THANK YOU, QUY!!
I *knew* there had to be a reason! I just accepted the default settings when I joined last month. This site/list is so unlike any other - a Good Thing! - that I didn't monkey around with anything. (I've just figured out how to find all of my past posts...)
From the abumdance of 'words-instead-of-icons' in most other ppl's posts, they haven't known about clicking this option either!
Charlotte Des Roches DesignsLOL I am glad you got the answer you were looking for Bobbie...but this topic was very helpful to me today...I have a friend who calls my Needle Felting "Sock Puppets" so I sent him this smiley 
Kim-Bee BearsThanks, Heather, found em!
