You can do smilies with Safari as well! See? You just type the code "[ : D ]" (without the spaces and quotes) whilst in Plain Text edit mode (configurable in your user area).

I've always avoided Firefox, it's just not a proper Mac experience...

Hey Alex! What program do you recommand instead of FireFox, or do you use Safari only. I've heard something about a browser called Opera. Any experieces? I've been using FireFox for just one day on my Mac now, but I somehow don't like it, don't really know why.

Hi Alex,

What kind of technical issues did you encountered that led you not to recommand Firefox for Mac ?

Thanks for your input.

Guy

keyboard and mouse look and feel great. I was not at home until now, so I did not do anything with my mac. I noticed one problem: I use safari at the moment and i cannot insert smilies on this forum. any thoughts?
You can download FireFox. It works perfect.

As I used FireFox for some sites with my PC already, I was thinking about downloding it again. I think I will do that. Thanks Luigi

I have FireFox now, and right now, I'm checking if the smilies work.

Yes, they seem to work!

Perfect!

Well done Tom,

This is a short term project for me.

The new iMac is very well designed. One more reason for me to switch definately.
