want some more?

Well I DID say it would be nice to have a few more options, I just forgot to mention the flower as one of them! lol.

James I am surprised I thought you would jump at the chance to have a smiley with a flower for the ladies - being the gentleman that you are

I want chocolates better than flowers and too bad no smileys for that too!

Naaah...some things are better left as they are, opal. I just like to think that myLot knows best. hehehe

Well, its for anyone to interpret anyway, you can use them to any intention that you have. (^_^ )

(^_^") I have seen you use this a couple of times especially when you respond to my discussions. (^_^") However thanks for the list/ or diagram or whatever you call it. hehe. At least next time I will know what they mean. I thought that emoticon I copied abocve meant "shy".lol

How about :-( when I am happy??? hehehe, just kidding!

The cemetary! What a way to start the week Theresa, all ok?

I would have wanted to be the week-ender! Believe me.

Oh I see the myLot code was an added feature! (That is if your memory serves us right!)hehe A hug a kiss and a flower....so you're a sweet person, eh? I hope the flower won't remind me of the cemetery though. heekheekheek No, mysD, I haven't guessed. I didn't see it through that avatar of yours!

But I'm sure, in the absence of words, you'd abuse the wub on practically every female organism here in mylot! Nyaha.....peace!

I'm not on MSN so I don't know how the smileys look like in there, but any reason why you try evading them? Perhaps they look annoying?

haha, somebody has to remove those, then!

Well... they are just very ugly (and annoying, yes)... Lol.

About the earnings I definitely have no idea but you are right, other people might abuse the smileys. :-)

This is what I meant by expressive smileys. See that confused bugger after the word earnings at the end of the post. Doesn't it add a beautiful feel to the response? bourne

I agree bourne. that is definitely the best thing about smileys!

Let's just say this is what myLot thinks is best for all of us. Other people have expressed their fear that some privileges only cause further abuse. But yeah, sometimes, it would be a bit nicer if we could add like 1 or 2 more, right?

I do agree with you that the post will be a bit annoying with so many things going on like smileys especially the ones that move. Sorry for the late reply. Been really busy/

so you're also in deviantart?! wow....i wasn't successful enough in uploading my pics there.

Well, very simply put, yes. Each server (like Yahoo, MSN, myLot, etc.) has a certain amount of bandwidth they can use each month. Incoming and outgoing things each use up this bandwidth. Photos and gifs (pictures that move) and streaming video use up more bandwidth than typed words. Once they've used up their alloted bandwidth, nothing can be done until they get more, usually the following month. A lot of times, when servers say they are "upgrading", that means they're adding more bandwidth. I have the feeling that myLot has already had to do that a time or two since it has grown so fast. A computer geek could explain it better than I can, probably. If my son were here, he could put it into easy to understand terms, but I hope I explained it so you can understand it a little bit, anyway.

Well thanks. And believe me you don't have to be a nerd to explain it effectively. I think you explained it pretty well. I already have a slight idea of what it means.

May I ask what bandwidth means? Is it the space that a certain character occupies?

Oh yeah, the rasp could be impolite especially for someone who is still new to you. Thanks for responding.

Hi sweet...I didn't know about myLot code too when had 400+ posts until I started wondering why other people can use those. I had to investigate and learned all about the myLot code.

Yes, you can only use up to 3. It's sometimes very useful when you are trying to convey an emotion that words cannot express so I really have good use for them.
