Wants to know why the emoticons arent showing properly on the list or in messages. I have windows 95, and supposedly trillian is mean to be compatible with it… but if that is so, wouldnt the emoticons work? I have no troubles with msn messenger or yahoo….so whats different with trillian?
Any ideas would be good

August 22, 2002 at 10:01 am #67466PhilMemberSince Trillian is a totally different platform, the emoticons r totally unrelated to msn messenger or yahoo….not sure what the problem seems to be here, but it sounds like a good reinstall may do the trick!! i no ur probably thinkin that this is the answer to everything but it usually manages to sort out a lot of unwanted problems!

August 23, 2002 at 6:17 pm #67463Jeff HesterKeymasterActually Trillian emoticons are not entirely unrelated to the other messengers. They created a “mapping” that is compatible with almost all of the the emoticons used by MSN, Yahoo, AIM, etc.
MerryOne, do you see the emoticon popup screen in Trillian? The one that lets you select a smiley to send? Or are you using keyboard shortcuts to send them?
Have you applied any skins to Trillian? The smileys are actually defined as part of the skin, allowing the skin developer to customize those, too (or eliminate them, if they hate smileys).
I’d suggest a reinstall might be in order, because they definitely do work. I haven’t heard of any problems in Win95, and don’t have an old machine around to test it though.

August 25, 2002 at 3:06 pm #67469MerryOneMemberI downloaded Trillian once again, but the same trouble continues, with the emoticons. I dont know what to do next. I see the emoticons in the dropdown list. But as by my original message, they are only green red grey and white. I downloaded a skin, but with no change to emoticons. Any ideas?

August 26, 2002 at 12:38 pm #67468MerryOneMemberOh Drat! Think i might just forego windows 95, and save up for windows 98. 95 is becoming too much of a relic now.
Thanks for your help too. 🙂“Love in its wisdom is the ultimate grace. To drown in it’s pool of desire, is the perfect fall”
August 26, 2002 at 1:16 pm #67465PhilMemberIf ur going to be saving up for a new OS, why cant u go for the big time and get XP ? would make a bit more sense that way, or are you really limited in cash?

August 26, 2002 at 1:27 pm #67467MerryOneMemberIn time i could get XP, with some saving. But to make it worth while, I would need a much bigger and updated computer. This one has only got 32mb of ram in it Which makes it rather slow to todays standards. Would it be worth me getting XP with this computer?..or even windows 98 for that matter.
