Change Smilie background?

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,
is it possible to change the background colour of the smiles dropdown only (where you pick them)in the posting area?
I don't want anything else to change though   I would like the smilies to stand out on a dark background?

@jenant, this should do it
First part is normal, second part (where it says /* Hover */ is for when you rollover with your mouse)


/* Smiley Background */
.smiley-menu, .smiley-menu ul {
border-top-color: #272727;
border-right-color: #272727;
border-bottom-color: #272727;
border-left-color: #272727;
box-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #181818;
background-color: #111111;
}

.smiley-menu li > a { color: #ffffff; }

/* Smiley Background - Hover */
.select_menu_list li:hover > a,
.smiley-menu li:hover > a {
background-color: #181818;
color: #CF5558;
border-top: #111111 1px solid;
border-left: #111111 1px solid;
border-right: #111111 1px solid;
border-bottom: #111111 1px solid;
}

Just copy and paste the above code in. I would recommend pasting at the very bottom of the style sheet. I always add custom added CSS to the bottom, it's much easier to find that way, even though I do also add notes/headers to the top (like in the above post /* Smiley Background */ = header)
