Posticons

Posticons allow you to represent the feeling, mood or idea of your post in an icon form. Posticons are displayed next to the subject line of a topic. Both Gold and non-Gold Communities can add their own set of custom posticons or use the default set. We encourage you to use some of ours.

Key Information

• Admins can chose to allow or disallow posticons at their discretion.
• You can add up to 10 of your own custom posticons. Only 10 are available and you cannot have different Posticons per forum.
