Probably been asked a million times but does anyone know why I can't see my smilies? For example when I add a happy face all I can see is this........... :) which is really boring......

When editing you can’t see it, after posting you should though?

Maybe check on your profile, user control panel/board preferences/edit display options/ display smilies as images click yes and save options. Good luck :thumbsup:
