How do you manage to use the smileys that move ? and can I do the same off iPod touch ?

It is a bit awkward off mobile devices as the site displays differently and it is cut down a lot to make it easier to see.

Ok thanks . Started to get hang of the site now after a shaky start , spent a few years on 606 and glad to be away from NEO and them horrible foxes !

Just going on from this, Nick.... animated gif files - are they a pain in the arse for you, cos I have a few I'd like to use, just simple ones, but I can understand if you say no. (Abuse of use and all that!) :thinking about:

 

[Nick]

It depends how big they are really, as long as it doesn't slow the pages down for people or are too rude then it is fine

 

[Houchens Head]

But don't I need the "HTML CODE On" option?

 

[Houchens Head]

test....

<table border="0" width="78" style="border: none; font-family: Myriad, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;"><tr><td colspan="2" style="border: none;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" allowNetworking="all" src="http://w12.photobucket.com/flash/ta...6QWRhbXMvQmF6JTIwUGljcy9pbWFnZTAxMDEwMTAuZ2lm" width="78" height="102"/></td></tr></table>

Nah! Doesn't work....

 

[Nick]

Is it Flash or an animated gif?

That looks like Flash, that won't work.

 

[Houchens Head]

Nick it's just something I had in my photobucket account. These are the properties...

Gotta go out now. I'll check back later

 

[Nick]

If it is just an animated gif it will work just like any other image.

If it is flash which that code says it was, it won't work as Flash can be very dangerous in the wrong hands!

 

[Houchens Head]

I'll leave it then......

 

[Houchens Head]

It used to work on another forum a few years back?

It used to work on another forum a few years back?

I can open up HTML, it just means somebody could damage the site if they wanted to!

 

[Houchens Head]

No NO Nick! Leave it!
It was just an idle thought I had. I wouldn't want ANYTHING to go haywire!

 

[Nick]

Tis Ok, I wouldn't let it

You might be better off hosting them on IMGUR as it's setup specifically for posting stuff onto forums, whenever you upload something it gives you the right code to just paste into your post :claping hands:

Edit: just like that!

I miss that "stirring the pot" animated gif we used to have on the Telegraph forum. Have looked everywhere for it but can't find one anything like as good.
