I've noticed some nicer looking smilie sets on some of the other sites.  Are the current smilies the only option here?

[Ryu78]

so far yes... but we are trying to get a more modern looking set...

You guys don't have access to the same smilies as all of the sites in this family of forums, i.e. the voyager, env touch, etc?

The head honcho in this site, aka BlackBerry Tour, does. I may have them too... but to be honest I'm a rookie being an admin... I used to be a moderator and didn't have full access I have now. Still learning...  


I sent BlackBerry Tour a PM to see what can we do about it...

Generally, there is a simple interface menu once inside the Admin menus to change the smiley set.  I'm not sure if it matters what version this particular site is running on but this template is pretty common on the net. You should just be able to find a link to smileys on the left-hand menu grid and then change the default set to something else, if it's been uploaded to the site already.

This is the most common set I have seen used.

This may be helpful too.

Rather than double post, I'll just add my new question here.

I've noticed this site doesn't have a bookmark feature to save our favorite threads so as not to have to go looking for them each time we log in.  Any chance of adding that one in?

I like Tour's 2nd suggestion, I'd like to see that as well.
