Well the title says it all really. I just wondered how many the rest of you use.

3 in some posts.
;)
If it' someones birthday,
[img]smile.gif[/img]
Up to five

I usually only use smilies to defang funny remarks that could be misunderstood ( [img]tongue.gif[/img] ).

The far majority of my posts are completely smiley-free.

<font color="gold">As most of my posts are in the BG2-forum, where I usually help out people or add stuff to what's been already said, I usually ends my posts with a ' ;) '. In most of my other posts, I end the message with a ' [img]smile.gif[/img] '.
So I belong to the category 1-2 smilies per post. [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>

Usually 1-2 with one of these 3: [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] :D

Did you know that 8 is the current max. of smilies per post? People should post dogs instead. :D

As many as I need! [img]tongue.gif[/img] Most posts only require a few, 3 or 4. I don't do long lines of the same smilie. But if it's a long post, sometimes you need as many as is allowed! Last year in my birthday thread I had to make 3 different posts thanking people so I could use enough smilies [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img] :D

Antryg you really ought to check those dogs in Opera. :D They run like the wind to say the least. LOL!

OK my smiley use is extensive. ;) I think I average 5 or 6 per post. But in some posts I know I must have been way over 15. :D

As for which ones I use. Well almost everyone. [img]graemlins/blueblink.gif[/img]

[safe answer]
Depends on the length and the nature of the post. ;)

[img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

this is not a smily, it is a picture of me [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

It depends on how I feel at the moment of typing the post. ;)

Usually just 1 or 2. More if its a special occasian.

Depends. 2-3 usually. 4-5 if needed. SOme of my posts are veeeerrryy loooong, so it all depends. 10 if it's a birthday post.

Hew, Willow, is [img]graemlins/whackya.gif[/img] considered a smiley??

I want a foot on the desk smiley. [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

Usually one i think. :D has kinda become my trademark. I love that "innocent" grin. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

One smiley per paragraph for me [img]graemlins/bunny.gif[/img]

I use around 1 or 2.

Either, :D or [img]smile.gif[/img]

;)
