Gender Symbols

I had thought I was quite an observant bloke but today I noticed for the first time that to the right of the screen, under the name & location there are disreet gender symbols

(GENDER HERE)

I don't seem to be able to insert them in my text.

Any clever clogs out there who know how to do it ?

Re: Gender Symbols

What? this one?



Exactly the same way as you insert any other image you see - how about the web header which is made up of bits:





or the logo at the bottom right:



Now you should have all the clues you need but here is one more



Off you go...

Re: Gender Symbols

I'm a newbie but I'm sure they were there last week. Maybe they're there to remind us of what we are!!

Re: Gender Symbols

Yes Robert, exactly as Bruce described in pictures.....

Right click on your gender symbol (here's mine
)

Choose "Copy Image Location"

Click on the symbol in the reply box that looks like an envelope ....

Paste (Ctrl V) in the box that appears and click ok.
