SOrry am being thick, but how do you use the smiley list in posts.

Greenfern, you almost got it, but you put a comma in. all it is is square brackets and the word you want to use inside. i want to be your friend as i cudnt get it either at first. now i am brilliant!!

Morning greenfern: did you work it out?

greenfern · 10/04/2013 10:06

Yes it did Helen Thank you.

Lovesher I got it eventually. I am blaming my eyes sight. I thought it was a comma at the end of the brackets.
