Please can you allow the heart symbol / alt+3?

I just tried to type it on a very sad thread...it worked fine on preview but came out as a series of numbers when I pressed post

which looks rubbish.

Please - is there a way to enable it? You press alt then 3 and release both at once.

Thankyou if you can manage this.

Oh seems we're not

that was a club symbol! I only guessed at it. But I KNOW we can do a copyright sign. (not that I know how)

Okay have you got a numbers section on the RH side of your keyboard? It won't work with the top row of numbers.

You press the ALT key down, keep it down, then press 3 on the right. Then take both off at once and you should have a heart.

Preview it, but it won't translate to post!

I got carried away because I had just learnt how to do it.

I think it's quite sweet actually. Much better than that thing over there>>>

Please don't. It would offend my sensibilities.

MrsWobbleTheWaitress · 23/04/2010 07:54
