Different Board Smilies

Just a quick question about the board smilies : why are there different smilies on the different boards ? ats/pts/bts

I just wanted to post this--> on bts but i couldnt find that smilie there


Is there an option to show all the different smilies on all boards when posting ? (yes i have the smilies enabled), i myself cant remember all the smilie _javascript ways to type the different smilies so they show up (already 30 and memories getting worse by the day )

Any ideas to solving this problem are more than appreciated

Hey Fett Pinkus,

I don't think that there is such an option, sorry.

As for the different smileys on differing boards I think the reason those on ATS and P@ATS are perhaps a little more dour is so they do not distract from the content so, whereas BTS is a more relaxed 'coffee-shop' atmosphere.

I think was removed from P@ATS because they were wearing it out.

The only was I can thing of to transfer smilies is as I've used above, the smiley is from BTS but posted as an image:

[ats]http://www.belowtopsecret.com/images/smilies/ats2486_banghead.gif[/ats]

Yup. That's the way I do it too.

Need a smiley that's not available, post it as you would a regular image.




They don't call them Supermods for nothing, ya know.

No need to post it as an image. Open a BTS thread and hit post reply, then click on whichever smilie you want. Copy/remember the BBcode and use it on ATS, it works just the same:



Oh my God, BTS wackiness in ATS?! Whatever shall we do? Why, have a party of course!

guys thanks for the ideas

@wecomeinpeace yeh i thought that might be the best idea to posting smilies


glad ive got firefox so opening new tabs isnt the problem at all

ok so let the party beginn

This used to be in the FAQ, but apparently it was eliminated when the newly revised Handbook was introduced.

However, thanks to the Wayback Machine, here you go.

A list of current supported smilies and their respective BBcode:
