Oh no! What happened to the cool emoticons?

Ok - on the upper left of the main toolbars is a link called "User CP". Click that.

Then, on the menu options on the side, click the link that says "Edit Options"

From there, scroll all the way down the page until you get to a section titled: "Miscellaneous Options" and " "Message Editor Interface"

You have three choices:
Basic Editor - A simple text box
Standard Editor - Extra Formatting Controls
Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing

It seems that there have been some changes since I was last on to the emoticon functionality since I was last on, but I chose the third option - Full WYSIWYG Editing, and it gave me clickable emoticons in a box to the right of the text editor window.

Since I've worked as a software designer myself, I usually pick up on this stuff pretty quickly, and in my opinion, VBulletin is a solid, fairly intuitive software package with lots of cool controls and features. I think that for most, once the newness has worn off and people get used to the new functionality, they are going to really like it.
