This is a minor issue but has been driving me nuts. Usually when I click on a smiley to insert it into my posting text, the graphic shows up on the preview.  Sometimes, though, only the graphic name shows up on the preview.  When this happens, if I add an extra colon after the graphic name in my text, the graphic then shows up in the preview but so does the extra colon.  Any idea why?  If you need to see an example, it happened to me this morning when I posted a reply to the "In praise of old dogs" topic in the General Nature category.

I think it might be where your cursor is at the time of insertion.  It also might have to do with missing a space (I always add a space before inserting)....

The next time it happens, try refreshing the page before attempting to add a colon.

It may be that like other forums the graphic name shows in the preview, but then shows in the post.  I'm experimenting here.... stupid

Ok, my preview shows the "name", we'll see what happens when I post.
