 * I’m trying to add smilies to my site but because I have a dark background they
   always show with a border around them. I’m using custom smilies plugin and have
   tried all kinds of fixes like using transparent pngs and colouring the background
   of each smiley the same as the site background it just doesn’t seem to work does
   any body know how to get around this.
 * You can see my problem at [slooude.net ](http://www.slooude.net)at the moment
   there is a white background around them but thats not the problem (these images
   don’t have a transparent background) it’s the dark box around them i want to 
   get rid of and when I make transparent pngs i just get dark box as a background.

 * Check your stylesheet in your theme’s directory for “.wp-smiley” – your stylesheet
   is adding the border and any other attributes listed there.

 * I would recommend adding this line to your css:
 * `#main .wp-smiley { border:0px }`
