You mean from a diffent source or from the pop up box when you click "View more smilies"?

If you mean from an outside source like say a different forum then they wont work if you type them in as you would at that different forum. You can still post them as images using the [img] [ /img] commands if you can find their direct link.

Just tried it now and the pop up box works on Opera and Chrome but not on Internet Explorer 9. :idunno:

Yes indeed. But to be honest I use Mozilla Firefox mostly. IE just does weird stuff all the time and I have no patience for it. Must be getting old :D
