I had written this hack a long time ago, but considering the renewed interest, I wanted to make sure it was recorded. It make a small row of clickable smilies show up on top of box where you edit your post. Click on the smilie and it gets translated and put in the right place, no more guessing! Here is the link to the hack.
*Edit* The hack has been fixed for use on comments which show up on the main page (without the use of 12_comments popup)
An avid fan of business, education, technology and finance. I lead a lean, highly focussed and capable team of Java Back End developers and Front End developers through a maze of complex software wizardry to fulfill the web maintenance needs of a large chemical manufacturer. As per Myers-Briggs Personality Types, I am an ESTJ. I pride in a project completed on time and according to plan. My hobbies include all kinds of technology, anything that I can taste and anything that goes fast or flies in the air. I like to read business books and comics in my spare time.

The selection.createRange() code that inserts at the cursor position only works in IE. You should steal the insertion code from the wp-quicklinks.js to make it cross-browser compatible.
One language I dont care for (and truly, dont really understand) is Javascript and it gives me lots of headaches! 🙂 I will look into doing some stealing. There has been some problem with the document.form item as well which I should look into. Thanks Alex!
JavaScript is truly a pain in the arse – the JS Console in Mozilla helps a lot though.
