Request: OS "smiley" icons in toolbar

We're getting lots of confusion in the ID General forum, with people recommending SSE register fixes for Mac problems or "clear your caches" for Windows problems. If there was some icon people could insert right at the beginning of the message it might help. Actually it would be even better if it could be inserted into the subject line!

all the bickering aside, i think the origninal post is a good idea... would be nice if you could insert those icons into the smilies box

Add at least another dozern for the various Linux varients too.

Not a bad idea at all.       

Might be a tough one to impliment? Don't know how much the tool bar can have customized functions. Interesting thought tho, but it will be one of those that can be brought up after the dust settles a bit and things stabilize into more comfortable patterns.

Don't panic!

Photoshop forums haven't been merged.

Er, just to make sure this doesn't descend into holy wars, my point here is simply that people are recommending OS-specific fixes for the wrong OS. I actually do think that there may be something to be said for combining experts from both forums. I am already seeing lots of good posts by people I had no clue existed because they were limiting their posts to the Windows side like I was limiting my posts to the Mac side.

If we had an icon that could be easily posted in each question though, it would help limit the issue of recommending fixes for the wrong platform.

OMG! They merged these forums???? Well to he** with this. There ARE NO REDEEMING QUALITIES TO THESE FORUMS!
