Using smiley central

A lot of people have been asking me about my smileys that I am using. I just accidentally discovered that my smiley central will work on this forum. I have it downloaded on my internet page. There is a tool box that says smiley central and I just click on that and use the smileys. I works for me , don't know if it will work for the rest of you....
Bearfoot any insite on this...Qbee says she has smiley central and it isn't working for her. I thought maybe it was a block on her computer or something. Dont have a clue on this do you.....

I'm editing out my previous post and changing this to "never mind"! I don't want to ask anyone to waste their time trying to figure out why I can't post Smileys from SmileyCentral.com. Thanks, anyhow! Have a good day friends!

I don't know why it works for me.... It didn't on the other forum got the same message you do here...are your tool bars locked? Go look. Right click on the tool bar and a drop down box should appear. Then you can check your tool bars.
If that doesn't work guess you will have to be green with envy..... Just kidding...OR use these http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys-hug-001.php

I was just about to ask, and I found TLC has already brought this up. When I use Smiley Central with my e-mail, I just click on the smiley and it plops right into my email. But this is what happens here. I get this message:


Oops! Smiley Central is most commonly used to insert smileys into instant messages and emails. However, to do so must be using your webamil or IM application at the time you click on a smiley. You can paste the smiley's HTML into a webpage text field (i.e. social networking sites like MySpace, Xanga, etc).

If I try pasting the HTML code this is what happens: <a href="http://plugin.smileycentral.com/http%253A%252F%252Fwww.smileycentral.com%252F%253Fpartner%253DZSzeb008%255FZSYYYYYYPBUS%2526i%253D3%252F3%255F8%255F2%2526feat%253Dprof/page.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/3/3_8_2.gif" alt="SmileyCentral.com" border="0"><img border="0" src="http://plugin.smileycentral.com/http%253A%252F%252Fimgfarm%252Ecom%252Fimages%252Fnocache%252Ftr%252Ffw%252Fsmiley%252Fsocial%252Egif%253Fi%253D3%252F3_8_2%2526uiv%253D3.0/image.gif"></a>

QBee, is this a run-over from another thread? Is there a question here, or are you good (smiley-wise, at least)?

My anti-spyware will not let me download 'smiley central'. They consider it 'malicious spyware'. I was able to get into the 'free smileys' link. Thanks Tammy!

Tracy - Most of my message is showing what happened when I tried to put a smiley from SmileyCentral.com into a post here. SmileyCentral gives me that "Oops..." message. Then if I try to paste the SmileyCentral HTML code for the smiley I want to use, the code shows up - not the smiley. But I just changed my 1st message here. I don't want to ask anyone to waste her time figuring out why I can't post Smileys! I promise I won't even be envious of TLC and her success!

Well, I have looked around a little and so far, I don't know why SmileyCentral works for tlc and not for me...
If/when I find an answer...will let you know

Well, I finally got the smileys from Smiley Central to work...its a bit of a pain though

I had to open the Smiley Central from the tool bar
Find the smiley I wanted, click and drag to the reply box
The screen will change to just the smiley with a url visable in the bar at the top
Highlight and Copy the url (Ctrl+C)
Click the Back arrow to go back to the reply box
Click the Image button
Paste (Ctrl+V) the copied url in the box
Click ok



I don't know why you would want to do this when you can use
http://smileys.on-my-web.com/
much much easier!

Uuuuh Thanks Bearfoot. I think.

She lost me at... open Smiley Central from your tool bar.

It seemed like Smiley Central was causing problems with my internet use. Then I saw info on the internet and Louanne's message here about smileycentral being spyware. Maybe some of my anti-spyware was trying to stop smiley central? So now I found the Smiley's Repository - don't know how safe it is either, but it works.

Here is the link to Smiley's Repostitory that QBee was talking about. Tons of smileys and should be easy to use!

Thanks, looks like a wonderful site!!! Ooo, look what I found!

Yeah!!! Yes I know some have had troubles with smiley central. I seem to have upgraded to one that I can use on websites. Downloading to vista realllly is a pain. (If you have vista)
I just thing they are fun and smiley repository is a great site.
