Thanks Monetary. That worked. The smilies are there.Monetary said:river...I had the same problem. If you implement the following instructions, you should be ok.
1. On the Black People page, click on User CP
2. On the left-hand side of this page, click on Edit Options
3. Scroll down the page until you find the Miscellaneous Options section.
4. Change the Message Editor Interface from Basic Editor - A Simple text box to Standard Editor - Extra formatting Controls
5. Then click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
You should see all of your text options and smilies when you post a reply.
Still wish I knew who gave me my 15th reputation. Oh well Maybe they will step up and admit it. It worked for Destee and Triniti then it stopped. Maybe it will start again with the change you showed me.
