Custom Emotiocon

Hey,

My custom emoticons have not been installed properly.
they are there as I have looked but they do not show up in my messeges.

Other people do as I have ticked show custom emiticons. When I view all
emoticons they are there though are unable to be used with the keyboard to be
added to the message.

It seems that custom emoticons are totally broke! Lets hope they fix that.

To add to this, you can select your custom emoticons from the emoticons
dialog, and they show up in your message text box, but when you press enter
to send the message, the keyboard shortcut is entered into your message and
the recipient does not see the custom emoticon.

Hey, I found a workaround. It seems that if you start typing some text after
the emoticon it seems to work. It shows up in the text box you are typing
in, and it also shows up in the conversation window. The person you are
talking to will also see it. Seems like a strange bug to me!

Quite an annoying problem lol.
But yeah it seems contacts can see the emotes, they just dont show on your
chat window.

I have tried just the keyboard as well as the menu.
Though I will try typing after the emote......

i'm having the exact same problem too! so there's no way to fix it?
