They don't work for me. When I drag one over all I get is code after I submit the post. If I do Smile it just shows up as that instead of a smilie.

Are smilies turned on?

Also, I don't drag them. I click them and the code appears in the reply window at the location of my cursor.

Don't drag, just click. When you do, it will say 'wotf001' or some other number then when you submit, the smilie will show up

Took me long enough but most of these smilies seem to work for British Intelligence or is it M5?

The Gator loves smilies, she says they're really tasty. wotf017 I think they are the alligator version of Smarties.
