Just set your cursor at the spot you want your Emoticon (smiley) to appear and then go to the list of smilies to the left of your workbox, choose the appropriate one and click on it - voila!

Then scroll down to submit and Click!

Thanks to Dutchy and Lezzles for help. Will now try to put a smiley on.
Just one more query, how do you put a little picture on>

Hi willywagtail

You got it, your smiley appeared in your posting!

As far as posting a picture is concerned that is more complicated.

I suggest you read through the "Help Forum" of this site where you will find plenty of advice on the subject.

Once familiar with the procedure you can try it out in the "Testing Forum", before posting a picture in a thread.

Hope this helps.
