Full Version: Smilies problem

I recently added new smilies to my forum but they appear like red Xs. What should I do? Does mybb support .gif format? Maybe that's the problem.

Can someone please help me?
MyBB certianly supports them. Can you check that they are image locations are mapped to the images correctly?
I can see them in the 'smilies list' but they change to red X when I use them in a PM or message.Sad
Can you compare both links to the images?

It seems.*is confused*

Maybe I did something wrong. (most certainly!!)
Can you please describe the process of adding a new smilie? (step by step)Smile
Miracle are you the owner of TOA? Smile

Maybe it's because you're using Createmybb.
why don't you just post the url to your forums ?
please post...
If you're trying to use remote images (i.e. images hosted on other servers) they won't work with MyBB unless you have some sort of modification.

You should upload your images in your FTP client to images/smilies, and add them with a relative URL when you add a smilie (i.e. use a URL like "images/smilies/mysmilie.gif" instead of "http://example.com/somesmilie.gif")

If you're still having problems please post the URL of your forum.
Thanks Dennis. That solved my problem.Smile
