Hello Nexton

I'm glad you like my fishes smiley - biggrin.

To display them on your page, you would have to write your page in GuideML code rather than plain text. GuideML is similar to HTML.

I suggest you first practise in a Guide Entry. Create a new Guide Entry by clicking on the link provided on your page or by clicking on this link: <./>UserEdit</.>

On the edit page, click on the GuideML radio button and then press Change Style.

The tags







will appear in the box.

Copy and paste the code for a fish in between and

The finished code might look like this







Then press Update Entry and the page will be saved and added to your list of Guide Entries.

You can learn more about GuideML at the <./>GuideML-Clinic</.>.

When you're converting your space you'll find it easier if you start by deleting all the smileys. You can put them back in at a later date. The smiley code in GuideML is different from that in Plain Text.

You're welcome smiley - ok.

GuideML looks complicated but most people get by with just four tags. The four tags, in the order you need to learn about them, are:


(for paragraph)
<SMILEY = "cool" / >

I worked on it. It's kinda intimidating, makes sub-atomic particles seem easy. Whatever they pay programars it's not enough! Once I learn the basic tags it aught to flow a little easier.
