Considering that FF has probably the largest selection of smilies I have ever seen on a message board, perhaps there should be a sticky listing all the different types/categories of smilies?

It's just a thought, but it will help all the n00bs, such as myself. :wave:

Won't someone please think of the n00bs?

How about a FAQ entry (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/faq.php?faq=faq_freethoughtforum#faq_smiley_search)? (Although now that I look at it I see it needs updating. :blush2: )

ETA: All caught up now. :^^

Ah, yes, well...I see. :stoopid:

I guess I need to simply get more familiar with the smilie-system on this board...

Thanks for the help.

The easiest thing to do to get your bearings is just browse the categories without looking for something in particular. Click on the "More" link to get the smiley search box, then click on the "Select Category" dropdown and pick a category. Click the "Find Smilies" button and scroll through the garden of wonders.

If you're looking for something in particular, type it into the "And/or keywords" field and click the "Find Smilies" button. Keep in mind that if the keyword is a common component of other words, you might get some suprising results.

Once you get used to them, you'll wonder how you managed on other boards without the hoard. This place is a smilie lover's heaven.
