Who else thinks that we need one of these? I think it could really help convey something that this forum is missing, who do I have to talk to about getting this?

Many people use smiley images that aren't part of the standard set presented here.

Basically, they go to external sites and find them and then link them to posts here in the same way as you would do with images.

That's what I do. Find the smiley you want, right mouse click and select "copy image location" (Firefox) and use the insert image function on the boards. I don't do it all that often.

Good because thats not the proper way to do it. If the images a free you should copy them you a website of your own and link them from there instead of stealing bandwidth from someone else. ( I know its minimal but its a principal).

And hosting them yourself spares you the embarrassment (at least) of their changing the image to something you wouldn't want to be posting when they discover that the whole world is using their site as a smiley host.

...and isn't this so annoying? You click the link expecting to see another pic or something useful, and you end up with a stupid smiley :rolleyes:

And the ones I use say to copy the link and paste where you want. It's not stealing bandwith when they permit it.
