Solved Emoticon Background

Post by Selvester June 24th 2013, 11:51

So I have noticed that forumotion has changed the emoticon box back to the side... Personally I rather liked it the other way but I have no qualms with it being this way either. But my question now is; is there a way to set a background for the emoticon box? Rather than having it basically be the same as the forum background, ya know? I took a screen shot but you could see it just as well when going to make a reply here on the forum.

Emoticon Background 347b90p

^See the background behind the emoticons? Is there a way to change that?

Really? No solution? I really thought I had been able to change that in the past I just don't remember how I did that... I suppose I could be wrong though. I would rather not change my background, I am really happy with it as the main background. Not so much as the background with the emoticons... >.<

I am going to mess around a bit see if I can't figure it out. I tried earlier before posting this but I was tired so maybe I missed something?.. I really think I was able to change it before... If anyone has a different answer please share. If it truly isn't possible... well that's a bit disappointing.

I'm Working on that problem but right now i can not find the code i used way back when i added a background to it, Maybe when the new editor was put in place the code no longer works.




I'm sure there will be away around this thou.

EDIT: Here is the code that should be put in your CSS files

Code:
html#sceditor_smilies body {
            background-image: none;
            background-color: #YOURCOLOR;
        }

if you want to put some other background on there please
Change:
Code:
background-image: none;
 To:
Code:
background-image: url(YOUR URL HERE)!important;

Remove:
Code:
background-color: #YOURCOLOR;

Many thanks Ape for the new CSS code for fixing the smileys' box background. It is perfect, as it now covers the full background of the box instead of just partially, although that was better than having the forum background in tiles as its BG. My forum's background is a full-sized photo which looked rather busy when in small tiles for the smileys' BG & made it very difficult to see some of them. 

Thanks again for the solve. Much appreciated. Very Happy :wouhou:
