Easier forum smilies in messages
Author
Although somewhat of a minor annoyance, it's a pain to have to go to the FAQ every time I want to insert a smiley into my post. Some are easy to remember but it's not easy to remember what's available and what the code is to insert them. I suggest that we place the smileys underneath the message box on the post page. It'd be even nicer if there was a bit of javascript so that we can just click on it so that it inserts automatically.
Better yet, no reason for you to even bother. Place the following code after the </TR> after the message box:
This should create an 8x4 box of smileys beneath the message box. It should fit neatly but may need some adjustments. This only took me a few minutes so it won't hurt my feelings if you don't want to use it. [grin]
EDIT: Had to add spaces to the codes so they wouldn't show up as smilies.
Underneath? I always figured something like this would look better to the right of the post box, but then there's a problem for people who aren't using resolutions as high as mine (1280x1024).

I put them underneath just for the sake of simplicity. Here's what I've got with a few more touch-ups: http://members.gamedev.net/tech_universe/gamedev.html
if you have FF 1.5, why not just get the plug-in that has all the smilies ready for you with one right-click?
edit.... oh THOSE smileys...... pay no attention to what i said.

I found it annoying that you had to click on the picture, not just the cell it was in. If that's possible to fix, that would be a good thing too do.

I had made it an onClick event and changed it to an href="javascript:etc" so that the pointer finger icon shows up. That should make it a bit more user-friendly.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript"> function GDAddSmiley (strText) { document.PostTopic.message.value = document.PostTopic.message.value + strText; }; </SCRIPT>[caution]seems like it may be a bit annoying if it appended to the post rather than inserting at the current position...

Eeee. Sorry, I'm really not liking how that looks.

Anyway, I'm with superpig - in its current layout I don't like it so much, but I *do* think its a good idea and would be a useful feature for the forums. I think GDNet is the only forum I've frequented that doesn't already have something like that.
Maybe if you can work on the layout a bit it'd be perfect. Possibly move it to columns down the left-hand side, and possibly group the larger icons ([google][imwithstupid][repost]) in a seperate column/row so that they don't unnecessarily inflate the table?
Cheers,
Jack
