Hi,

firstly, it looks fantastic - great work :)

secondly, (copying 'kludge-around')
how about duplicating the text box over the top, the selectable text box
having the smilies replaces with a smiliefont, suitable width, space
character ?
events triggering scroll updating etc ?
doable maybe?

Ya i know your font solution works - but what happens if someone wants
to copy & paste the text? Or have it saved to history? floating images
on top fixes that problem, but also crushes the player.
