STG, They come free with the reply button - scroll to bottom of page if you can't see them. Just a click away.

Oh dear, I can't see them !

STG, Hit the reply button and on my screen they are right under dialogue box.

They only appear there in the "Brunel" skin...

Other users need to hunt for their <./>Smiley</.>...

neither can I STG (thought it was just me). Not sure why not....

Only way I've used them was when I tracked them down via something I now can't remember (FAQ, getting started or something or other).

All that's under my "Text:" box are two boxes called Preview Message and Post Message

And then the option to Click here to return to the Conversation without saying anything.

Shall I cry now, or wait until later ?

Hint: Click on *any* smiley...

Peet, or whoever.

Now that some of us are sticking our noses round the door.Without looking at everybody's personal space how do you know if someone is specifically leaving messages for you? Without periodically checking this, which is a pain in the arse, how do I know if anyone has replied to me? How can I reply to an individual posting halfway up the thread and have that person know?

And why is the bloody thing running more slowly than ML?

Glad to see you're enjoying yourself here SeaN.....

running away very quickly (just as well I can't figure out the smileys..)

Are you auditioning for the next Grumpy Old Men series, Sean ?

Nice to see you anyway. Gotta pop off now.

See ya tomorrow [hopefully] in TB everyone.

Hello, SeaN!!

Now tell me. How do you know anybody has replied to you in ML unless you periodically check your emails? That can be a pain in the arse, can't it?

Think positive, bro!

And I'm adding you to my friends whether you like it or not. And, I'm in "alabaster" so no access to smileys!

SeaN -just posted myself a message to test.

Your inward messages are shown in My Space/My Messages.

Polly

- annoying aren't they

hi there Mustardeers, just ventured to The Outhouse to see how it is all going!

[complain about this post]

Poll, as far as I can see that records messages you've posted, not any that have been posted to you.I'll retract that if I'm wrong, but we'll see.

I've just posted to you in your "Personal Space", can you see it?

Eilis

..and me

SeaN, it does give any new postings adressed to you - I've just spotted a new thread adressed to me on my Space.

Hth,

Katy

SeaN, there are two places you need to look, and both of them are on your Personal Space.

Assuming you're still on the default "Brunel" skin, replies to conversations you're involved in are listed under the heading "MY CONVERSATIONS" and new messages left for you specifically show up in the list titled "MY MESSAGES".

I used some sort of html (had to do a bit in AS ICT so I dabble in it)

I think it was, only it won't show up in here because..um.. it won't.

Just realised, a nice feature to have would be if you could see the post you were replying to when typing the reply.
