Greetings All

I need some help. I am old and a Luddite so I have not been able to figure out how to use the Smilies. I can not figure out how to add them to a post. I see them in a block when a new post is created (can not figure out how to get them in the post) and when I post a reply I also need to know how to add them.

Can someone please explain how to do it in both situations in a plain and simple manner than even an old guy who is not puter savvy can understand?

I would be eternally grateful!!! I am sure it is simple which is why I can not figure out how to do it!!

I would ask the younger daughter for help but she isn't here at home any longer.

Click "new reply", which is on the top right and bottom right of the posts. The "quick reply" feature on the bottom of the page does no offer the smilies. On the left and the top of the "new reply" page is the smily selection. The ones on the left are the ones you can add to a post, and the ones on top are used for he topic.

Thanks for the info. Clears up why I do not see the smilies list when I hit quick reply.

I assume (and you know what that entails!!) that when you want to put a smilie into your post/reply you just click on it and drag it into the post/reply?

Or do you do something else?

Thanks for the info.

Hit "Reply" on an individual post.

Place the cursor where you want your "smilie"

Click on a Smilie

It appears in your post.

Thanks for the help everyone.

I'll get this modern stuffed figured out eventually. Then someone will go and change everything again!!

A simile is a comparison using like or as. For example "cent, you are as majestic as a beautiful flying bald eagle " or "cent, your biceps are as big as mountains. " a metaphor is a comparison, with assumed rhetorical effect, as in "cent your manhood is a python "

Humor:

Benjamin Franklin wrote: "I wish that the bald eagle had not been chosen as the representative of our country, he is a bird of bad moral character, he does not get his living honestly, you may have seen him perched on some dead tree, where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the labor of the fishing-hawk, and when that diligent bird has at length taken a fish, and is bearing it to its nest for the support of his mate and young ones, the bald eagle pursues him and takes it from him.... Besides he is a rank coward; the little kingbird, not bigger than a sparrow attacks him boldly and drives him out of the district..."

Regarding mountains, are you referring to Mount Wycheproof? The world's smallest mountain located in Australia. Wycheproof is an aboriginal word meaning ‘grass on a hill’.

Finally, are you sure the python is how you want your "manhood" referenced? Pythons, because of their docile nature and undemanding requirements, are the most suitable snake as a captive animals. They make a few drugs if there are issues with erectile dysfunction and/or if you are lacking desire.

As you might guess, I have the day off.

I can't argue with any of that
