So, this has been bothering me for awhile now. I'm the kind of person who LOVES to use little webdings in her posts/signatures/thread titles... but for some reason, I can't see them at all.

I have the Lucinda Unicode sans thing-a-majigger, but I can't figure out why the little text stars and hearts and other symbols show up as simple boxes. A friend had suggested it was my Java-- but thats working just fine. I have the language pack, too, so I know thats not it... anyone have an idea what I can do to get me to view them?

That's a REALLY good question Batty. I know some others where those things show up as boxes too such as this heart that I love to use.. ♥

The Java doesn't seem like it would be the issue, perhaps the fonts you have installed aren't complete? Perhaps they are missing the symbols or something... Other than that I'm not sure :(

What is a webding?

Serra Britt · Posted 05-29-2011, 11:16 AM

Webdiggns are the little symbols, like the heart ♥ and diamond ♦ you have in your sig Sushi :3

And I don't think not knowing this makes you fail at life D:

Sushi · Posted 05-29-2011, 11:50 AM

Ah, lol. Maybe not fail at life. But fail at internet speech. xD

I love using them. So, batty can't see them? GASP.

Batty · Posted 05-29-2011, 11:57 AM

Nope... I can't see them. ><; I've been trying to figure out WHY, but..

Sushi · Posted 05-29-2011, 12:16 PM

Hmm... Maybe it's just your computer?

Serra Britt · Posted 05-29-2011, 12:35 PM

It either has something to do with font or unicode settings I'm sure but... I'm not really sure what to suggest on HOW to check those :/

Sushi · Posted 05-29-2011, 02:20 PM

Google. lol

Has an answer for everything. If I need to fix something, I usually just mess around with stuff till I fix it. xD Has always worked eventually.

Espy · Posted 05-29-2011, 02:26 PM

I think it's the unicode...try toggling that a little. Or bother Coda. >.>

Batty · Posted 05-30-2011, 11:45 AM

I screwed with the unicode. I ended up making a mess of things. xD;

So I guess I'll just bother Coda about it. Lmao.

Sushi · Posted 05-30-2011, 02:47 PM

Yeeeeaaahhhh Coda will know!

Serra Britt · Posted 05-30-2011, 06:18 PM

I want to know if you've fixed it yet xD I adore my little hearts! ♥

Batty · Posted 05-31-2011, 10:53 AM

I still haven't gotten it fixed. xD; I wanna see everything I can do before I bother poor Coda about it.

Coda · Posted 05-31-2011, 01:22 PM

It's definitely a font issue. What operating system are you using, and what version?

Batty · Posted 05-31-2011, 06:14 PM

Windows XP home edition, Service pack 3.
