Icons and formatting options

[flybyferns]

Smiles ( choices) and formatting options are missing for the past week or so for me when logged in ?

How do I get it back?

The only icons I have are choices when posting a new tread

Thanks , Lynn

Same thing here! I thought it was just me & my annoying computer (at times ), kinda good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this problem! Have you noticed the Avatars displaying differently too? For me, sometimes there smaller, then other times there a normal size, or even in the same thread a member's avatar will be a normal and small size between two different posts on the same thread!?

Mines like that too! and I thought the avatar size difference was because the pictures are different sizes (like when they are uploaded, they're bigger/smaller than others) but im not sure now.

Hi ,
I'm sure there is an explanation and/or solution.
A moderator and /or John will see our posts over the next few hours.
Let's keep an eye out.

I'm mostly wondering about the formatting. I can't underline /bold / italicize ....... etc.

Just want to say that you can still undeline/bold/link etc, just use do it ordinary way, like forums have always worked. [ I ] blabla [ /I ] for italic, for example (without the spaces).

Martin,

But, what happened to the formatting tool bar?
Is it gone for everyone, or just me?

I do not know, I am not a moderator or admin. Just saying that I never actually notice it was gone, since I always just type it. So, just saying that if you want to format the text, you can still do it.

In case anybody don't know how to, here's a quick reference of the commonly used (Just remove every SPACE within the brackets):

[ IMG ] link to an image [ /IMG ] - Shows the image directly in the post
[ I ] text you want in italic [ /I ] - Italic
[ B ] text you want in bold[ /B] - Bold
[ U ] text you want underlined - Underlined
[ URL ] web adress [ /URL ] - Creates a direct link

Thanks Martin,
Is the formatting tool bar gone for all forum members as well? Do you have it?
I am aware of how to create the formatting using shortcuts.
I'm just wondering what happened to it?
Or was it a setting that I inadvertently changed in the "forum settings"?
Or, is it just a setting for my laptop?

It was not directed to you in person, it was more a general helpbox if someone else wants to format their text without the toolbar.

Since several people in this very thread have said that it's gone for them too, I doubt it's something you changed in your settings
And no, I do not have it either.

Thanks Martin,
I appreciate your help. I thought you were answering me directly as my post was quoted. Sorry.

At least I know I did not mess something in the forum settings!
I didn't think so. The instructions are quite straight forward.

Thanks again

Thankyou! I'd look in my list of "smiley's" for a more appropriate thankyou smile (than the glee one lol)... but it's gone too! -.-

Really hope we can get our tool bar back, smiley’s back, and the avatars to a normal display size!

There is a lot going wrong recently did any of you see the thread about not being able to post pics I still can't and the face icons appear on mine but when I click them they don't work. The avatar thing is just weird.

[flybyferns]

I'm sure it will all work out , eventually !

Just join photo bucket, and upload your pics to there, then copy their [IMG] codes, and paste them directly into your responce LOTS of people on this site use photobucket or similar websites that offer [IMG] codes!
