Messenger 9 emoticons

Even though it said that I could use emoticons and it was turned on
everywhere I saw the options 98% of mind did not work.

I am now using 8.5 and am happy to have it back. I am glad to have Microsoft
follow how I use Messenger and IE but I am not really into trying to help
design them.

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

Greetings,

The current beta version of Messenger 2009 (v14) has a bug where [most] custom emoticons just
don't show up. I assume that's what you're referring to.

I'm sure it'll be fixed by the final release

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

Thanks I think that is what I was referring to also and I will look forward
to an improved Messender 2009. When it is released.

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

Hi,

Just to be clear, your contact does see them, it's just you that doesn't. So, you just have
to pretend they're there.

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

Jonathan - Contacts don't see the custom emoticons. I have been testing
with different logins and they don't come through. I send a message to a
different Live ID using custom emoticons and when I sign in with that Live
ID, all I see is the text, not the emoticon.

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

My contacts see my emoticons, while i don't.
If you have been using offline messages that explains it. Custom smileys are
not brought along with the offline messages...

Re: Messenger 9 emoticons

Hi,

Whenever the next release is, it'll be fixed in it. So, within the next month or so.

I'm looking forward to it
