Hello! I have a couple of other smileys to share with everyone but I'm not sure if they're going to work. I'll just try a couple at first, then if they work I list the other 20 odd that I've discovered.

Before I do though, I found a great animated gif site yesterday. This site also lets you create buttons and 3D text and logos for free. The URL is

http://www.webgrafx-fx.com/graphics/archives/

OK here goes with the smielys.

:-X = ( + (-) + (X)
:-@ = ( + (-) + (@)
8-) = (8) + (-) + ())

Hope this works!

Oh well! It was worth a try!! I hope at least the URL is enjoyed by everybody!!!

Guess I missed the inappropriate/funny gif... Now to see if these ordinary smiley combos actually make the cute icons!







So what is this in? Is this UBB? How to make in HTML?

Sheanwa - It looks like the image name isn't ending with an extension, i.e., .jpg, .gif, etc. Check out the image address again and retype it (or cut and paste). Many image servers don't like you linking directly to their site, so you may want to copy it first to your own image hosting.

vwH2o - I'll be sure to add that to the acro list.

bearstalker - You're very welcome.

Great! I'm glad it's still being used. Very strange that AW doesn't include this in a FAQ section. At least, I don't think they do.
