OK, so I check out this forum every day, but usually do not find myself moved to submit, so I guess I am what is known as a "lurker." I think everyone who lurks like I do should take this opportunity to introduce themselves. ("Hi, my name is Bob, and I lurk...") Because admission is the first step to recovery. The second is submission ;)

"Hi, my name is Ned, and I'm a lurker..."

@Weasel you tried lurking, remember? It never works out, you're just too hooked on spam :D

Weasel, stop that! You'll scare away the real lurkers!

Here Lurky, Lurky. Come boy. Sit. Stay.

Hi! I was just lurking around and thought I'd say hello. Hello!

Down boy. Sit.

@Georgi: yeah! Thanks.
@Hekate: Thanks for signing in.

Generally, however, it seems lurkers are hard to get into conversation mode.

Hell-l-l-l-o-o-o-o ?

@der Moench Hey, I was a lurker once, I was very intimidated by Weasel :D Oh, there's a reason we call them lurkers... ;)

@Georgi: I was wondering: is that term "lurker" kinda derogatory?

@der Moench sometimes it's better to lurk ;) But it's like listening in on a conversation... why not just join in? :D

@Georgi: well, I'm trying! But where do you get those awesome little animated smilies?! All I can manage are Buck's standard ones (which are cool, don't get me wrong, Buck! :D )

I don't think you're a Tyrant, Weasel. I think you're a big, warm fuzzy. Have you been getting grief lately?

I'm the Tyrant :D :D

To answer your question...different places have smilies. Like this site >>>[url="http://mysmilies.com/"]HERE[/url] <<<. You need the images url>> [url="http://www.mpz.co.uk/cwm/cwm/cwm/rotate.gif"]http://www.mpz.co.uk/cwm/cwm/cwm/rotate.gif[/url]

This one will not work because the [img]brackets%20%20are%20not%20around%20it....but%20hit%20IMAGE%20in%20the%20instant%20UBB%20code%20under%20your%20post%20and%20..%20%20[img]http://www.mpz.co.uk/cwm/cwm/cwm/rotate.gif[/img] and you have a smilie.

IF you go to the site I left a link to...they already have the [img] brackets..all you need to do with them is paste them...don't use the UBB instant for them.
