Those little faces?

[past94x]

I have just tried to attach one of those little faces to my last post- shown in yellow when you are writing a message- but can't seem to do it. I have tried just clicking on one with the cursor where I want my smiley face to be, I have tried copy & paste, but nothing works. Could some kind (and knowledgable) soul advise me what I am doing wrong please?

Hi past94x, to add a smiley face above just click on the one you want  I clicked on the first one on the left and a colon and a bracket show on your post.  The grin one shows a semi colon and the capital letter D.  When you post your reply they convert to the smiley faces.  Hope this helps

Ah, that explains it.
All I was getting was punctuation marks and I thought I had done something wrong. I also tried the Preview button, but the same marks appear there too. I didn't realise that when the message is posted, things change.
Thanks so much for taking the time to help me.

Hey, I did it. Those punctuation marks do indeed change to little faces.
Thanks again for helping me.
