erik_sic and shifter seems yall have ran into something that works awesomely if that’s a word lol works great
June 2, 2004 at 10:27 pm #54613El DiabloMemberOriginally I don’t like to post twice but, could anyone find out if there is a way to put pictures in your nickname or do I need to download a special mIRC script?
June 3, 2004 at 2:48 am #54538shifterMemberYou cannot have images in your nickname, however it may be possible to add text smiley’s such as 🙂 using alt-codes. But I doubt that the text will convert to images in chat. Also, mIRC scripts are for IRC and are in no way related to Yahoo.
June 9, 2004 at 5:18 pm #54648cyberakshayMemberlolz! you guyz post coded for nicknames:D?? Just goto your windows (O.S) Charecter Map. When ya click on any charecter, it shows a key stroke as either ALT text or at the bottom status bar at right it shows keys stroke. This are not shown for all charecters. Choose Arial from the fonts manu, ’cause yahoo fonts all rial, or you may also change fonts and enjoy other font charecters:cool:

Thank you for your incredibly amazing post, however it did not work for me. Neither Hong Kong nor Korea would allow me to use a nickname. 🙂

Don’t be so lame. You posted 4 or 5 special characters for people to use and you expect them to lavish you with praise? Get real. Provide what you know and keep them all in one neat and tidy post so we don’t have to endlessly search and you will be appreciated. However if you treat us like dogs, we will bite. 😀
June 22, 2004 at 11:31 am #54626mdandeMemberdid you edit your profile in mainland with the alt codes then put your acount in hong kong or kerean? dont edit it in hong kong or kerean just leave your acount in it so it shows up in chat
Shifter I think you took my post worng man.. Sorry if you took it like that!! I was looking for feed back on if it was working for people or not and then I was going to post more of what works for me… If you can leave me an email I will send you my note pad.. I dant have a web page so I can’t put it on there for people to get a copy of it but maybe if you can get it to work from my notes you can rewrite it and host the note pad on your page so every 1 can use it.. Some if the codes I have on the note pad are unicode and I dont think it will show up on the forums and didnt want to try to in case it didnt work…
-edit- I just made a chesse web page for you all to get my notes on this its my note pad in a zip file becouse geocities would not let me upload the note pad and view it as a txt file http://www.geocities.com/ll3loody_llvless/index.html
June 22, 2004 at 4:23 pm #54557shifterMemberAh, I thought I must have done something wrong. Thanks mdande, and good work putting up the rest of your codes. I’ll check them all out later today.

http://www.firehotquotes.comJune 28, 2004 at 8:17 pm #54518Jeff HesterKeymasterOkay, I have a problem here if someone can help me out please. One of my friends wanted to change her name to symbols, instead of going to someone who knew what the heck they were doing she went to someone who thinks they know what they are doing. Anywho! Her profile she can not change back to English, I logged into her acct in order to help her change the acct info from China Mainland back to Englsih and the problem is.. she is missing the language option to change it back. Within yahoo, there should be 3 options there: language preference, time zone and password prompt. On her acct she only has 2 options: time zone and pass prompt. How in the heck is she suppose to change her settings back to English if that language option is not there?! I have no clue how to fix her acct settings with that option missing and yes I adviced her not to seek help from anyone else who has no clue wtf they are doing.
EDIT: Unnecessary text formatting removed. It’s just easier to read this way 🙂
June 29, 2004 at 1:00 am #54627mdandeMemberbecnjas read over the the basic name trick on my web page it sould help you out
http://www.geocities.com/ll3loody_llvless/tips.html
in step 1 I have linked to the yahoo log on screen to change your acount languageJune 29, 2004 at 10:20 am #54651xSUMMERxMemberTO THE POST 2 ABOVE THIS ONE … I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS YOUR LOOKING FOR A DROP DOWN BOX FOR THE LANGUAGE WHEN IN FACT ITS A UNDERLINED LINK TO CHANGE IT ABOVE THOSE 2 DROP DOWN BOXES (TIMEZONE AND PW SOMETHIN YOU SAID I BELIEVE). ONCE you CLICK ON THE LINK IT WILL TAKE you TO THE LANGUAGE PAGE WHERE you PILL PICK THE TOP CHOICE ON THE DROP DOWN BOX. 😀 HOPE THAT IS HELPFUL !!
June 29, 2004 at 11:39 am #54519Jeff HesterKeymasterxSUMMERx, you missed the entire scenerio here… there is no drop down box I am looking for.. it is a LINK and that language link/ option *as I stated* is NOT[/b] there at all! I know how to change the language preference and how to add the symbols, etc etc… if go back and thoroughly reading through my post you will see that I pointed out that her settings can not be changed back to English because that LINK is not available there for the choosing: JUST[/b] 1- time zone, 2- password prompt. :rolleyes:
mdande, I will take a look at your site and see if that helps her out. thanks!
maybe if I type the problem in ENGLISH it might be more comprehendable? 🙂 something along the lines of: THAT STUPID LANGUAGE LINK TO CHANGE THE SETTINGS ON HER ACCT. BACK TO ENGLISH IS NOT THERE!!!! (laughs and walks away)
EDIT: Blue text is hard to read, please don’t use it unnecessarily again.
