I must get this off my chest....we are Mac people, and as such we are aesthetes, as concerned with the visual merits of our gadgets as the technological.
So what's with the smilies?
I know their purpose and I agree they are invaluable in eliminating the inevitable ambiguity of the hastily written word, but they just come across as the visual equivalent of a Crazy Frog ringtone.
Can't we have some new, MacOsX-esque smilies? After all, if this were a bricks-and-mortar temple to Mac, would the pews be made of chipboard?
And if the smiley designer is a member of the forum, please don't be offended - I couldn't create a smiley if my life depended on it. It's just my soul yearns for change. Brushed aluminium frown? Graphite wink? Aqua cheesy grin?
Or perhaps I'm alone in this?
