Hello,

I am coming from another vB forum, and I am so used to using a smiley that is like a thumbs-up. I would like to see this smiley here because it is especially useful at the end of posts helping a member out with a problem where you would say "Good luck! (insert thumb smiley here)". Here is a link to the smiley:

Hope you will consider this! (insert thumbs-up smiley here)

We used to have a similar smiley, but in the recent conversion it was lost along with a few others. Damn shame. I miss 'em! :(

Can't you just manually add the smiley to the forums? I am an administrator of an Invision Power Board, and I can manually add smilies by uploading them to the FTP server in the directory for smilies.

If that does not work, I will use the {IMG} tags to hotink this smiley.

Hope you can find an alternative!

If members can manually do it, it's all good. However, I think a lot of those smileys are copyrighted and protected, so I don't think we can just add them to our arsenol of emoticons, unfortunately. If you know where we can get them free without copyrights, let us know for sure!

I will email or Private Message a moderator or administrator at the forum I got it from. They should get back soon with a reply and I will let you know!

Most of these smilies are now in the public folder. I'll add the thumbs-up smilie later today :)
