Title: Smileys!!
Post by: DahMurf on September 09, 2008, 12:40:02 PM: Ok they finally gave me the right key to let me add new smileys!

See :cheers: yeah!

So now I'm taking requests. Let me know which ones you just can't live without!

I have a bunch stored here: http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p224/DahMurf/Smileys/ (http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p224/DahMurf/Smileys/)

I've also been given the ok to beg, borrow or steal (at least until we get that cease & desist letter for unapproved hijacking & use of a smiley! :-o )

So let me know what you want and post the image if you can.

Don't worry, we won't be adding eighteen million smileys, just a few new fun ones!

Post by: McRat on September 10, 2008, 05:34:00 PM: If you use the Wrenching Banana, Pooopstorm, or OldCoot, first copy the image to the local server. We are always moving files, and months from now, it might be a red X.

Post by: Seldom Seen Slim on November 12, 2009, 06:58:10 PM: Well, I guess it's time to let you know that I don't know how to -- ready for this? -- how to get a smiley into a post. I've tried a couple of times -- but don't know which keys to hit and when, and so on. Someone -- stop laughing at me even if I am the guy that owns and supposedly knows how to run the site -0- someone take a few minutes to tell me how to do it, hey? Thanks.

Speaking of website stuff -- I finally got all of the photos into this one desktop computer and will start loading up the Gallery with some of them soon. Ive got about 4800 photos, many of which are racing-related and therefore worthy of being posted. You won't get any nude shots of Nancy, though, so don't bother to ask for them. The photos in the Gallery will be in the various folders -- by year, by venue, by event, and so on. Got a lot of them -- want to make it easy to share. No, I won't be opening the gallery to allow you folks to post, though -- but if you've got shots that are worthy of being in the Gallery I'll be glad to have you send them to me so I can put 'em in there. Just be sure to let me know the basic information (date, venue, etc) so I get 'em in the correct folder.

The photos I've got go back a couple of years, that's all, but it's the best I've got available. Stay tuned -- you'll get 'em soon.

Now that you're done laughing at me -- send that smiley how-to, okay?

Slim, there are probably other ways, but you can use "insert a picture" link and just point to a picture on another web site. For example:

http://comments.deviantart.com/emoticons (http://comments.deviantart.com/emoticons) is just one of millions of sites you can get them from. Once you find the one on the page you want, right click on it and choose properties and it will give you the file and path to the emoticon. Once you have it drop it in like you would any other image link.

The pattern for pasting would be {img}url properties{/img}

(http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/stupidme2.gif)

As an example to get the one from above, use the following:
{img}http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/stupidme2.gif{/img}
Replace the {} braces with [] braces will give it to you

Post by: Seldom Seen Slim on November 12, 2009, 08:10:41 PM: bbarn -- okay, if that's one way -- but it sounds kinda roundabout. Isn't there a standard - and easy - way to use those smileys that are right there above the blank where I type this message? :?

Oh, wouldya lookit that? It worked, just by clicking on it. I thought there was more to it. Wow, I guess I should be embarrassed for not having tried it and then checking it out.

Whatever -- we live and learn.

Title: Re: Smileys!!
Post by: bbarn on November 12, 2009, 08:36:54 PM: Slim, "I assumed" you were looking for ones other than what is above the chat window. It's easy for me to be Captain Obvious now, sure, just click and life is good.

I know how this dialog will go, but I'll ask it anyhow: Have you ever considered adding more/other emoticons to the mix? There is a setting under Profile | Look and Layout Preferences | Current Smiley set that has four settings: None, Forum/Board Default, Default and Classic. I would bet one bent and burned exhaust valve and 3 oz of shattered piston pieces that there is a way to load more smiley's that one could just "click on" above the message window to use. That certainly would be easier than my method.

If you can tell me the name and version of the message board being used, I could probably dig you up the instructions on how to load them...

Post by: Seldom Seen Slim on November 12, 2009, 08:53:25 PM: bbarn, read through this thread from post #1, by Dah Murf. She's been our Smiley captain for the past year or so. I looked at the various posts this evening before making my request -- I suggest you go back and see what she's got to say. If you want to add smileys to our collection -- run it past her. I just own the place, you know. . .

Towards the top of the page: click Profile
In left column, under Modify Profile, click “Look and Layout”
In the center, find Current Smiley Set, select “No Smileys”
Click Change Profile at bottom of page

Should get rid of smiley pics that are native to the system.
