Make sure you hit them at the same time. You can keep going too, to see what else comes up by hitting alt and then the next numbers."

Uh-oh, when you get to '7', DG goes away and your homepage comes up! So the figures above are 1-9, skipping 7. The zero does nothing--LOL

I can't figure this out let me test something else

Yep! You type the ^ and then the _ and the ^ again, with no spaces in between. cool, huh?

Really is neat. Can't seem to get the others.

Excuse all the edits..............

That's ok, that's why we have the Test forum! ^_^ lol

okay...does anyone know how to do a frowny face? or a pouty face? in yellow?

I don't think we can do that on DG.

:( so I'm stuck with my plain on frownies huh?

Humm Alt & 1 did nothing?

Alt & all numbers???

So much for that theory! Double S?? Must be my old computer & keyboard....

alt and 1...what was it supposed to be? ☺ I think you need to use the number pad at the right...not the numbers at top of keyboard ☺

☻♥♦♣♠•◘○◙♂♀♪♫☼►◄↕‼¶

sheesh... alt 1 thru 20 and still no frownie face!

guess I gotta keep on smiling?

nope. Doesn't do a thing. Just ignores me......
However Alt 9 sends me to image box below
Alt 8 goes one line up
Alt 0-7 stays right here as do all the symbol keys.....
think it is looking at the other functions of the ten keypad numbers??

youre holding down the alt key while hitting the number pad key at the same time?

when I do the music notes, I hold down the alt key type 13 on the number pad and then after I lift off the alt key the symbol shows up...

♪♫

be sure you have num lock on or it won't work

♪♪♪, ok, I lied, lol, it works either way. ♪♪♪

Num Lock on. Alt key down while typing any number....still nothing. Gotta be this OLD windows 98 thing!

alt 13 just gives me next line down.
even with num lock off. course, if I don't hold alt down, get actual number.....13

Bummer, I give..... Can still do my smileys! ^_^

hmmm, I know it wouldnt work on my lap top because I have no 10 key number pad....

and wont work on my desk puter if I'm using the numbers above the keyboard... maybe try it on your other puter?

^_^

¶§yi§§12♀♥3♥☺☻☻♥♦♣♠◘○♀☺☺☻♥♦♣♠◘○

Have to lift up the alt key after each stroke on my keyboard to get these!☺

now try doing it with 13, 14, 15 etc....there are many more characters!
