There is a long-standing feature where emoticons don't show if you are quoting a picture, something like that.

Is that what you are referring to?

It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I had no idea about that. Post a pic, I want to test the theory.

This has been around for a long time.

I think if someone inserts two pictures, an emoticon between the pictures will not render as an image, but one after the second picture will.

They way I've chosen to tackle this problem is simply do the right-click on the emoticon i want to use and then copy the URL, afterwards just paste it as an image.
