This page is for those who would like to add a little emotion to their comments on wordpress sites like this one.
There will be more hints added like how to BOLD and Italic text as time allows 😀

Smileys. 🙂 😀 😆 😦 😥 😉 😳
Smileys are a bit of fun to help show the emotion of your comment and there are a number of them.
These instructions work on wordpress sites but won’t work on some other sites
Smileys are produced using colons (:) not semicolons (;).
They need at least two spaces before the first colon and after the last colon.
There should not be any spaces between the colons and the word between them.
The “sss” either side represents three spaces.
This is how they should look when written, and will appear in a comment.
sss:grin:sss or sss:-Dsss = 😀
sss:lol:sss = 😆
sss:smile:sss or sss:-)sss = 🙂
sss:sad:sss or sss:-(sss = 😦
sss:cry:sss = 😥

sss:developer:sss = 
sss:!:sss = ❗
sss:razz:sss = 😛
sss:neutral:sss = 😐
sss:idea:sss = 💡
sss:arrow:sss = ➡
These are all the smileys available for wordpress that I can find, but they cover pretty much everything 😀
Here are the Smileys for other sites like TPS 😀
TPS Smilies Happy Smile – full colon close bracket = sss:-)sss 🙂
Sad Frown – full colon open bracket = sss:(sss = 😦
Grin,Laughing – full colon capital D = sss:Dsss = 😀
Tongue out – full colon capital P = sss:Psss = 😛
Wink – semi-colon dash close bracket = sss;)sss = 😉
Surprised, gasp – full colon dash capital O = sss:-Osss = 😮
Embarassed – full colon dollar sign ? = sss:$sss = 😳
Kiss – open bracket capital K close bracket = sss(K)sss
Sealed (my lips are sealed) – Full colon dash Hash = sss:-#sss
(the “Kiss” and “sealed” smileys will not work in wordpress, but they will work at TPS)
Text Formatting.
To make a word or sentence or part thereof, stand out or to give it emphasis, you can make it Bold, or Italic, or Bold Italic.
In a comment you can make a word or an entire sentence bold by putting <b> directly before the word/sentence and </b> after the word/sentence
<b>Bold</b> = Bold
<i>Italic</i> = Italic
<b><i>Bold Italic</i></b> = Bold Italic
You can also underline a word or sentence, or part thereof in the same way
<u>underline</u> = Underline
To put the whole lot together <u><b><i>Underline, Bold, Italics</i></b></u> do this.
To put the whole lot together Underline, Bold, Italics do this.
Another option, for effect is strikethrough.
<strike>Strikethrough</strike> = Strikethrough

If you mean TPS, you didn’t do anything wrong, you got ToM’s straight away 😀 that’s why I said you were a legend and quick on the uptake, I was impressed 😀
And SIC is another from the same mould, Right wing nut jobs.
Ad goes pretty easy on the trolls, and they are two of the resident trolls 😦 but TPS is a great site, and I’m sure they will appreciate your input as I do 😎
Keep up the good work mate, as I said you’re a legend 😀

Cornlegend, sorry for the mix up 😳 but I just went to TPS, and I think I see what you mean, TPS isn’t a wordpress site, so the smileys work differently there.

It didn’t bloody work either !!!

Lyn actually copied and pasted the smiley from my post, that’s why it didn’t work 😦

I’ll keep trying to see if there are any more, but I know those work 😀

Re- ToMs and SIC,
just tried to engage them to get them off everyone elses case.
If they are distracted by me, they don’t seem to bother about ruining the post.
Worried that I, in my engagement with them, did exactly what I was trying to stop them from doing
, getting off the topic

cornlegend, there are, in my estimation, at least two and probably three Toms of Melbourne and have been kicked off CW and AIMN after months of trolling there, so TPS is the only site left that tolerates them. 😦
SIC is a similar type of troll, but I have only come across him on TPS, although he may be on other sites with a different name. 👿
There is one other calling himself “Capstan” who everyone else calls Crap stain 😀 which pretty much sums him up.
Jason and ToMs have been going at it for a long time, as have a few others, that’s why I said you have them (The Trolls) bamboozled 😀 cos you have taken an approach that they don’t quite get 👿 😀
But the truth is they are there, only to disrupt the thread, and they will continue to try no matter what. 😯 TPS is all they have left 😦
Keep up the good work 😎 😀 😆

Hi Truthy, I noticed the indepth discussion of smiley’s.
They do help as people are prone to jump the wrong way on matters. Type leaves something out of interactions. And when pc fatigue sets in you never know where somethings going. Only the smile caption works for me, don’t know how the others come up 🙂
Been watching Wixxy and the matter. To me it looks like Kathy’s a whistleblower if it will get Tony in and court food to keep everyone looking the other way now Thompson has been munched on. It was much less than this matter and it’s insight in to our governing and players that got Wayne Goss out in Qld.
There is definately a ruling gang in this country that clothes itself in all and any matter of legitimacy and illusions.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this Truthy, but here goes:
This is a little add on program that I have found very handy – how many posts have we all regretted losing somewhere between the text editor and the final posting?
This clever program stores to disc all/each entry to the clip board sequentially – unless you choose to manually delete same. Just ‘select’ your text then Ctrl-C to auto store a snapshot copy of your text composition as you type.
How many times have you wished to recover some lost overwritten clipboard entry- well this makes it possible. ($20 one off cost -free 30 day trial)
