Messenger 9 emoticons

Even though it said that I could use emoticons and it was turned on
everywhere I saw the options 98% of mind did not work.

I am now using 8.5 and am happy to have it back. I am glad to have Microsoft
follow how I use Messenger and IE but I am not really into trying to help
design them.

Greetings,

The current beta version of Messenger 2009 (v14) has a bug where [most] custom emoticons just
don't show up. I assume that's what you're referring to.

I'm sure it'll be fixed by the final release

Thanks I think that is what I was referring to also and I will look forward
to an improved Messender 2009. When it is released.

Hi,

Just to be clear, your contact does see them, it's just you that doesn't. So, you just have
to pretend they're there.

Jonathan - Contacts don't see the custom emoticons. I have been testing
with different logins and they don't come through. I send a message to a
different Live ID using custom emoticons and when I sign in with that Live
ID, all I see is the text, not the emoticon.

My contacts see my emoticons, while i don't.
If you have been using offline messages that explains it. Custom smileys are
not brought along with the offline messages...

Hi,

Whenever the next release is, it'll be fixed in it. So, within the next month or so.

I'm looking forward to it
