O.P. Emoticon Issue
Hello all.

I installed the latest version of WM today (8.1) and after doing so I seem to have a problem with my emoticons.  Although they are still listed, the keyboard short cuts for them now just appear as plain text rather than an icon.  If I try and insert them via clicking on them through the emoticon menu the same problem occurs as well.  This happens with both the default emoticons and my custom ones. 

Frustratingly I can remember having this issue once before months ago, but can't remember how I fixed it!

I have WM 8.1 and WM+ 4.20.  Any advice on fixing this would be much appreciated!

RE: Emoticon Issue
Open up WLM's preferences and select the Messages tab. Then make sure "Show Emoticons" and "Show Custom Emoticons" are both ticked.
;p
