I was thinkin', when you post a reply, there's the 16 smilies on the left side. Is it possible to make it so that each member could customize those 16? You know, change them to what they use most often. Just a thought.
There is a way to have a new set a smilies every three posts I think. But as Jordan has said about alot of these good things, "There is a good possibilty they might be included in VB 3.0."
I can't do what you're suggesting, although it would be rather handy. The hack you mentioned, Tazz, simply displays random smilies, which I think would be confusing and inconvenient, depending on what smilies are displayed.
