| | Every once in a while I get an email on my work account that requires - nay, DEMANDS - use of an EA smilie. Particularly  ,  ,  , and  :. So what I do is open any old thread, click "reply," type my smilie code, click "preview," then copy the picture and paste it in the email.
Is there an easier way to take some EA smilies and save them so I can insert them in emails as needed?

| | Or you could copy them to your hard drive into one "smilies" folder, then copy/paste as needed. Er, demanded.

When I copy and then paste into an email, the smilie stays animated. When I tried saving individual smilies before, I think I lost animation. I guess I was looking for a faster, effective smilie download method.

| | Oh, that's true, you would lose the animation by saving off.
Maybe we should turn this into a "post your favorite smilies for MJ" thread, then you can just bookmark it and hit this one.

| | MJ,
Em is on to something. I think the easiest way is to send yourself a PM with all your favorite smilies in it. Then you can always just get that PM to copy from. |
