Put your cursor where you want the emoticon  :||: and just click once on the (emot)icon. Don't try to drag or type codes  :M. You can practice in the sandbox and preview your posts to check.  ;D

Don't try this  :M in the sandbox 'cos it's even worse than dancing on grass.  :|glug

No, we are much too nice for that, but it is disappointing when there is a support forum and you don't take the time to look for it.   :'(

So being nice and supportive I've moved your question here.  ;)

You also need to put a space between the emoticon and the next word otherwise you get  :-[this instead of  :-[ this.
