I notice at the end of some posts people put things like =/ :) etc. what do you have to turn on to make them show up as graphics or whatever they are called. I don't find anything in the help files.

What client are you using to read the newsgroups? That solely determines
what gets converted.

I am using web based here at work and outlook express at home. They don't come up at home either.
 
Thanks, but is there a way to turn something on so that I can see the pictures. I know in old DOS you could turn graphics on and be able to view stuff. Isn't there some way in XP

Yeah - neither one of those will convert them for you natively.
I use OE-Quotefix for that reason (and several other reasons.)
 
Hi Walt,

Those are not graphics, as such, just key strokes that have taken on a
meaning. There is nothing to turn on. Some e-mail programs have little
graphics such as smiley faces etc. I think there are some available for OE,
not sure but, I think I saw them somewhere.

That's what I am talking about. I thought you could make the little characters appear at the end of the sentence. Like you can when using yahoo messenger.

=======================
I wonder why they call it Freedownloadcenter and the price is $15.00 for
the smilies. Doesn't sound free to me. ;-)
