    Mont is talking about using the browsers in-built "find" function to get the flags you are wanting. For example, with Chrome, it would look like this..


    Whilst it doesn't solve the issue you are voicing, it is a possible "workaround" solution to quickly find what flags you are after in particular.

    The flags can be arranged alphabetically. I'll see if I can find some time to sort them, though I hope you'll understand that it will be low priority so it may take a while.

    The problem with that is that doing so will remove those smilies from old posts that used the old codes. For that reason, it's generally a bad idea to change the code substitution for smilies.

    Seriously, don't worry about it, Control F is a more than convenient method of finding them. The posts I need the flags for contain the country name anyway, so it's just as quick to copy paste, then put a colon at each end.

    Can't you make so that either old or new codes work?
