Smilie box missing Hello

I agree with kirk, just click the little Smilie box missing Icon_smile and the box should re-open Wink

However, if it does not re open, I suggest that you clear your cache & cookies.

That's fine and all but i just mentioned that the quick reply wasn't the problem.

The actual "post reply" was.

For instance in forumotion when you use the "post reply" button you have a smiley box to the right of the blank space for writing.

I have that box but there is no smiley's in it....although the smileys show perfectly in a quick reply box.

Can you please clear you cache & cookies?

Also, does this happen as a one off, or just consistent across your forum?

What the fuck ?!? IBP problems constant on PhpBB, this is a new problem.

Ok, do you see ur emoticon box? --- Yes
AT the bottom of it, do you see a scroll bar? ---- Yes/No
--If yes, use the scroll bar and scroll along ---- I can give you the CSS code you must change to make the box smaller, and thus lessen the need for scrolling.
But you as a CSS-knowledgeable person mightn't need my help there
--If no, we need more CSS work than we think - Please inform us.

Ok, this is the default CSS code you need to change

Code:
#smiley-box {
   float: right;
   margin-top: 25px;
   width: 18%;
   background-color: #ecf3f7;

I believe this is the correct code, you need to edit it to this size, or smaller. Smilie box missing Icon_cool

OK, go to:
Admin panel >> Display ( Tab ) >> pics & colors / Colors >> CSS Stylesheet > Insert the code (below) into the blank space.

Code:
#smiley-box {
  float: right;
  margin-top: 25px;
  width: 18%;
  background-color: #ecf3f7;

Feel free to change the colour code, and the sizes, but that is the default size for Phpbb3 Wink

Ok, just below the big blank white box, there's an option "disable the basic CSS" Activate it, and it should fix it, as long as you have the code there.

EDIT: Crap, don't do that unless ur going to copy/paste all of the basic CSS into that box!
