Disabling the /Use smilie icons in the HTML viewer/ disables *all* smilies. What I think TB needs is a method to ensure (besides the check box above for those that are anti-smilies) smiles appear when they're wanted and not as part of general text where they weren't intended. So, if I use troops (\troops\), coops (\coops\), hoops (\hoops\) and the like, I can be certain the reader of my missive see's the words I used and not any icons replacing the text. So, during the beta process, as we write back and forth, we should keep our eyes open for unwanted text replacement (UTR). Then, the PDSF.MSL file can be adjusted accordingly. Does that make sense?
