Here are the steps to follow:
1-Go to User CP
2-Click on "Edit Options"
3-Go to Miscellaneous Options (all the way to the bottom)
4-Change to "Enhance Interface - Full WYSWYG Editing

And, don't forget to click on "save changes"

You have the choice to click on "Post Quick Reply" or "Go Advanced".
So click on "Go Advanced" and you will have all different options ...
And there you will find all generic smilities ...

Can't speak for Dubai, but I've spent some time in Amman, and I was not bored for a second. I should perhaps preface this by saying that I live in a metropolitan area more populated than the whole of Jordan, so I am not from a backwoods area that would make anything seem relatively exciting. But I found plenty to do and see in Jordan, received social invitations within a day or two of my arrival (despite not knowing a single soul prior), never was at a loss for something interesting in which to engage. Although it is true that there isn't a large fine and performing arts scene in Jordan, there are events at the Royal Cultural Centre, exhibits at the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, and a lovely little complex called Darat al-Funun, which is a haven in downtown Amman. Moreover, the people are friendly and hospitable. While I was there, there were so few expatriates around (the Iraq war had just begun, so there'd been an exodus) that I was treated like a celebrity. People thanked me for visiting, gave me all kinds of gifts that I didn't deserve, told me to tell my friends to visit Jordan, came out of their homes and shops to yell, "welcome!" or "welcome to Jordan!". In all, it was a great experience and not at all dull. Would return in a heartbeat and stay just as interested, I'm sure.

Let's get back on topic, please and thank you.

Just a reminder that you can always PM another member if you want to ask them a question or talk to them about something other than Princess Haya.

Sorry ! I realise we went off topic. But one thing led to another....... :o

good use of emoticons, shelley.

but back to the topic of madame haya...any news on the nuptial bash? any one? any where? how is she setteling into dxb? and why has she put on so much weight and her husband has lost it?

in synopsis...i think she would prefer europe but her preferences carry little weight anymore.

I can't help thinking of her pix in Paris, taken , how many years ago ?, maybe 2or 3, she looked so happy and very beautiful, she looks old, now, fat and unhappy, I keep wondering, why did she do it - she was free , happy and just did whatever she liked , I used to think she would have never got married anyone, let alone this CP from UAE, sorry for his fans here, on this Forum.

ouch! fat is such a viscious word.

She's not fat! I get the feeling she just doesn't care about her appereance anymore.

[Ipi Tombe]

i agree with angie. she doesn't care. people keep talking about a grand metaphorsis with haya where she will settle into her position, hire a stylist and trainer and then blossom (much the same as QR) but, frankly, i just don't see it happening. she is obviously experiencing some sort of unrest for her skin to look as awful as it has and her weight to be out of control. and she is endurance riding-if that wouldn't force you to shed a few pounds, nothing will.

on one hand, i feel for the girl. on the other hand, well.....what comes around, goes around. you spin bad mojo-bad mojo gets spun onto you.

I agree Angie that Haya isn't fat...I hate the word "fat"...I have always stated that in previous posts on a few of PHaya's topics on this board only to find that several female forum members have used the word so hatefully and rather frequently to describe haya because she has put on weight...It's unfair really but hey, as I'm always reminded at one point or another..."I have the right to voice my opinion." Far be it for me to be infringing on people's rights.

gurl-you have to stay strong in times like these. (insert boxer emoticon here)

double post...I think.

Go to the MGA Production site. I just can't get used to PH in full traditional burka type dress......Is it necessary? Mary Shawn

[La la]

Those pictures were all taken pre-wedding and in countries where most Muslim women wear abayas or traditional dresses. I'd say that's more or less the appropriate dress code. Besides, I haven't seen any pictures of her in abaya after her wedding/in recent pictures.

Its hardly a burqa. A burqa's not even worn in the middle east. I wouldnt generalize traditional clothing that way if i were you. Besides, Haya wears it because its the traditional dress in Dubai, just like she wore the traditional Jordanian dress when in Jordan. She's an Arab and there's nothing wrong with her wearing her traditional dress.
