I just conveyed that you can go a long way without all those (other) visuals. As you know I sometimes use smileys myself. And not too long ago it would have been better to do so in a message to you, as you will remember. I have nothing against visuals and formatting - by far not - but it is always a good idea to think first and then try to use as much as needed and as little as possible. One kind of application for Ockam's Razor.
