Can;t find the right forum to put this in, and as its a noob question, i'll ask it here.

My smilies don't work, unless i key in the relevent character sets (ie. colon, end bracket to get a )
Smilies ARE enabled in my profile.

The smilies aren`t available, if you use the quick reply feature, so you would need to use the smilies code. If you use the full reply feature, you should be able to use the smilies button at the top of the reply window.

If that`s not your problem, then I don`t know what the cause is.
