Hi,
I tried to put smiley into my introduction which I wrote in GuideML and it's does not work. Does anyone know why and is there a possibility to make something like that?

You can't use the same smiley shortcuts in GuideML as you do in plain text or conversations. You need something like:
<SMILEY TYPE="winkeye"/>
That is a self-closing SMILEY tag of TYPE winkeye, ie the same as < winkeye > without the spaces:

SEF's quite right. A690518 is a good place to start when you first begin using GuideML. Look down the page for the section on smileys in GuideML (exactly what SEF said), and the rest of the page will give you some other ideas.
Happy GuideMLing!

I must say it is starting to look really good.
There are a number of Community built pages about how you can spice up your personal space. I was going to come over and suggest one, but it is the same one as OwlofDoom has already suggested.
