| | Re: smileys & winks Greetings ems, By downloads do you mean previously downloaded custom emoticons? I'm a bit confused as the winks really don't show up as text. If the emoticons are showing up as text, you can press the Alt key on the keyboard, choose the Tools menu, then Options, choose the Messages category and make sure both the 'Show emoticons' and 'Show custom emoticons' are checked. If you've had to select them (which I suspect you will), after choosing OK to the dialog, close and reopen any conversation windows for the setting to take effect. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2009 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "ems" <ems@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5CD43BB5-FF28-4BB4-B5F9-3A06FA7B1E6C@xxxxxx Quote: > When i downloaded latest version of messeger I lost my abilty 2 send winks > etc (just appearing as text) and all my downloadeds have disappeared? > -- > ems |

| | Re: smileys & winks Hi, If you could post a screenshot (or just use a free image service or skydrive) of what you're seeing, that would be helpful. Seeing exactly what's happening may provide more clues. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2009 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "ems" <ems@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:A5E1CD8B-3248-4E81-94FC-763ADF2EFE40@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks for reply but I have already checked that from a suggestion on this > discussion site.
