Hi. Thanks for having me. I hope that this post finds you well.

I've been here a while and there's one particular formatting issue which I find bothersome. I hope and pray that I am not alone. I feel could be resolved easily and without pain.

The problem surrounds the "Cool" emoticon. It's code is as follows:

Code: Select all

8)

It is displayed like this:

8)

With this being a rather technical message board, what with numbers and all in occasional use, It becomes a problem if you want to use numbers such as 8 in parenthesis like this:

Code: Select all

(3.8L V8)

With the current code for the "Cool" emoticon, the post is displayed like this:

(3.8L V8)

I think it would be a smashing idea if the code for the "Cool" emoticon was changed to something like this:

Code: Select all

:cool:

I feel that with this minor change, much strife can be averted, and we can all get along swimmingly...for now.

Thank you for your time! I appreciate all of the great work you folks do!

Regards,

Christopher Kohler

I've noticed it, been annoyed by it, then forgot about it.
It would be cool if it were changed, though.
