We never had the preview option. It's something that I'm hoping will be in a release of the software in the future though.

For now, edit is the only answer!

Default That was a nice option

While I have your attention. How do "YOU" insert smilies? :cheers:. I drag them and then have to delete the unused text?
#2 is spell check coming?
I use Word, but it puts ? in the place of '. and I have to insert smilies after spell check. Just wondering?
I have a hard time getting into EDIT.

I usually add them as I type the message. I tend to click on some of the new ones. :chevy but I just type in the text for the old familiar ones.

The spell checker is something that we would like to have again. Unfortunately we were about to lose it with the old UBB also. They don't have it available in the latest release. It was an advertising supported service that actually ran on someone else's server. With banner ad rates these days they wanted to charge quite a bit of money for it. :(

I wouldn't expect to see it back too soon. We'll keep asking for it though.
