oh...that is a known "bug". There is something wrong with the vBulletin software....I have no idea if it will be fixed.
I cannot add the new calendar until it is fixed, so I ask every week "When are you going to fix it?" I have never gotten a reply to that question.



PS the little pics are called "smilies"

works for me when I click on the menu. works for me when I type it.

Looking at your post, there is a space between the "r" and "o". That would cause it not to display.

I didn't put that space in there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some space monster must have done that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I clicked on the "smilies" in the window and that's what showed up!!

The problem seems to be that vBulletin will only allow 50 characters in a row.

Let's test it:

123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890

so that is exactly what happens...after fiftey characters vBulletin automatically puts in a space.

When you use a smilie, it has many characters. Like is "grouphug" preceded by a ":" and contains 9 characters. If you put 7 of them in a row, the sixth one will be broken.
