Did you follow these steps from the Admin guide or did you just directly upload them to the Graemlin directory?
Add, Edit or Remove a Graemlin
Graemlins are the graphic images that users can incorporate with their posts (such as the confused face and the angry face). The Admin can control which instant Graemlins are available using the following instructions.
1. Create your instant Graemlin icons. The icons should be 15x15 pixel gif images.
2. In your UBB.threads™ control panel, click the images and icons link.
3. Click the graemlins tab. Click the add new Graemlin tab at the bottom of the page.
4. Use the “browse” button to upload your icons. In the “markup string” field, assign the code that will trigger the instant Graemlin; for example, <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> could be the markup string that triggers the smiling Graemlin. You also have the option to add “smiley code” so that a colon and a right parenthesis would trigger a smiling Graemlin. Click “add Graemlin.”
