Your sig line
“Until you stalk and overrun, you can’t devour anyone.” -Hobbes
reminds me of a Far Side cartoon where the disgusted Hun is chewing out his troups: “How many times do I have to tell you?! It’s rape, pillage, \*and then \* burn.”

I’m not going to fix THAT smilie for you, but I will tell you the secret of the **hard space** (:eek: no pun intended!)
instead of regular spaces, which are squeezed up, you can use either the “code” instruction or the Alt0160 (Alt key down, then 0160, then Alt key up) for hard spaces.
Like this for Spider Woman’s trademark (although in her case the lines seem like spider webs)

Is there a way to get the {CODE} directive to single-space the lines? That double-spacing is only marginally useful and gets in the way of ASCII art.

I like the AOL instant messenger smileys for kiss :-\* and angel O:-).
But other than those I like a plain and simple 🙂
Or if I’m in a naughty mood, 😉
