A way to move/hide the smilies box?

I just re-skinned my forum, and have everything just how I want it... Only to find out that in the version I chose to build from, the box with all the smilies in it is next to the post input text box, and it's huuuuuge! It takes up a lot of space, and I would love to either hide it entirely, or at least move it. I would change versions or something.... but this took me so much time to redesign that I would just be devastated to have to do it over again.

Does anyone know how this might be achieved? Is there a way I could hide it with a CSS code? I really hate how it looks!

Any help would be SO so greatly appreciated!

A screenshot would help.

The box with the smiley faces on the left is what I would like to hide or move, if it is possible. Thank you.

That smiley box is there by default.
Why do you want to remove it? You can just add the quick reply, if you don't want to use this everytime?

Forum Version?

I'm using phpBB2

The reason I'd like to remove it is because the forum is meant for creative writing, and we write quite a lot. So on the reply page, it squashes the writing up quite a lot when you're trying to preview what you have written so far. It would just make it so much easier if there was a way to hide it, with CSS perhaps. Sorry to be a bother. I was just wondering if there was a way.

Well I believe you could remove it, but that does not change the width in any way. It would only remove that smilies box.

Ah, okay.

I'm sorry to have bothered you. I shall just have to live with it, I suppose.

Thank you anyway.

Its okay, didn't bother me. Was just trying to find if the width could be changed.

If you do find anything out, would you be able to let me know?

Thank you so much for looking into this. I know it's not really a 'problem', so I really appreciate the help.

Stick this in your CSS. I reckon this is probably your best bet as the table where you see the smilies on that page is the same table as on the forums, so changing that messes everything up. This will get rid of the smilies box and give you a bigger text area for your members.

Code:

iframe.row1 {
  display: none;
}

#text_editor_textarea.post {
  width: 850px !important;
}

That's perfect!

Thank you so so much! You're a life saver!
