I have threads going back 9 days that are still showing as new and no one has posted anything in them

It should be fixed. Can you mark all forms read when you're done reading? It won't retroactively fix things but from now on it should show only new unread posts.

I'm not a huge fan of the new format either, but I completely understand the need to standardize with a supported SW package. I applaud you guys for taking all the constructive criticism into account.

If I knew how to post screet shots, I would. My way is kind of clunky, but it works.

BEFORE you reply to a thread, scroll all the way down to the bottom of a page. On the left side, there is a menu entitled "Posting Rules". After the "You May...." section, there is a section with highlighted links. The second or third one down is "Smilies". I say second or third because, sometimes, it is the second or third item listed in that box. Anyway, if you click Smilies, another tab opens up showing all of the smilies. On the left side, under "what to type", copy the entire script, such as " : flag : ", then go back to your original tab, click reply, and add that script to your reply where ever you want it.

As of now, no Smilies Box opens for me no matter what I click to reply to a thread.

Like I said, my way is clunky, but works.

None of that ^^^^^^^^^ appears in any of my reply screens. zero, nada, nothing, zip, zippo. Maybe it is possible I'm not the only one not seeing the smilie box.
