Why is this 💖 a 2D heart black image with clear stars on my desktop computer, but it's a 3D-ish shiny red heart image on my LG tablet?

I use the same for an example, if I post the 💖 in the shoutbox I get ��. So are there certain text and/or images the boards support but not the shoutbox? or rather what can/can't the shoutbox support?

... and that brings me to a related question: How do people post videos in the shouty?

same way you do on the forums... I just tried it out with:
(minus the period inside the first bracket)

So I recently made the switch to Firefox and now whenever I do things like bold, insert image, etc I can't see any html code that goes with it..

I can no longer say F*uck via changing the color of one letter. Also the pictures just show up in the message box which I don't like. Is there a way to make it so I see all the [img][/img] type coding?

I have Firefox, but don't have that problem. I really don't know what to say. Did you check User PC > Edit Options > Message Editor Interface

Where is "user pc"? You mean right-clicking "My Computer"?

I'm on Win 7 btw.
