Hi, I've just made a suggestion that Smilies would brighten up the boards .... but this is just my opinion ... Would anyone else want them or use them ? Elaine :-) |

Mandy, go to 'your tree', then click on your name, then on edit, and you will see add photo at the end of the page. Joy |

Some people have been complaining about the use of capital letters so maybe wouldn't like smilies either! Personally I think they brighten things up as long as there aren't too many Jane |

Glad to have been of help. (I hadn't found it easy to find out how to do it!) Being able to have photographs was a suggestion of mine, so am pleased about that. I doubt I shall participate very much in future, for reasons I do not need to explain. I shall delete most contacts but you are welcome to contact me if you would like to stay in touch. Joy |

Hi Joy, I trust they have acknowledged that it was your idea to have the photo option ? Not good if they haven't. Elaine :-) Hope your not disappearing all together ? I for one will miss you. |

Hi Dorothy, I mean just on here on the GC boards - all or any of them! ... as people have said, it may help to clarify any misunderstanding when folks read messages ... a smile goes a long way ! I just suggested it to Michelle as a way of brightening up the site ! Elaine :-) |

Hi, I've said the same on another board, I'd rather not have them on message boards. They are great for MSN etc but they annoy me on message boards. Gwynne |

Hi Michelle, Thanks for reading ..! Maybe just the option to use the one or maybe two ? Then if folks didn't want to use them they wouldn't have to .. Thanks for considering the idea, much appreciated. Elaine :-) |
