    Must be me!
    I click on the smiley picture when posting and nothing happens- no legend pops up, nothing. I only can create a smiley if I type in the colon and paratheses myself- I have not been able to get anything cool.

    Alien, another smiley issue, so I just continued in this thread. I noticed when you use the word l-o-l-l-i-p-o-p or l-o-l-l-y, you get .lipop or .ly. Just an annoying, simple fix bug.

    I have a question about one of the smilies - this guy:

    .

    I know he's *ahem* Rolling On Floor, Laughing, but what's up with that...um...appendage wiggling around on the left? Is that an appendage? What appendage *is* that? Do I even want to know? .

    i'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a balloon and that's the tie-off... but it is confusing, and when it was new it took me a while to associate it with r.o.f.l.

    Actually, I think the UBB code looks for substrings inside of strings as the l-o-l-l-i-p-o-p bug is not the only instance of the smiley problem. Upon further investigation, I have seen the following:

    -Smilies imbedded within words: e.g. .lipop
    -name.y the way.....
    -Mth's action text e.g. :.owls over poss with a hug:: or :.rances about gleefully::

    So....I wonder if you can do one of two things? Change the code for smilies so that if they are imbedded in a word, they are not displayed (so the string is parsed and if there are alphanumerics around the string, it is not processed. This one is a bit complicated to implement....but doable.

    Or, use a smilie tag. such as smilie Just an idea.

    that is why most of the smiles are just symbols ie. :) :p :( etc.
    or things like :smile: :dance: :laugh: :pee: etc.

    if you realy want to say lolipop in a thread, you can always click the disable smilies box :)

    But then none of them will show up :(

    but then that's no fun...

    why not just say "popsicle" or "sucker"? .
