mac guy using safari here too... i have never used a smilie yet in any posts, but will try at the end of this post. i have noticed some other issue(s) though... if i move the reply box to see text behind it in another post for reference -i lose my post -PITA! also, can't copy & paste... ok... let me try that smilie... nope -did not work!

benny in atlanta is my contact too. great guy. highly recommended.
