Animated smileys are something not very easy to implement because of the way imgmirc works. I don\'t know if there will be the next release, but if it will, i\'ll think about animated smileys. Regarding smileys in editbox: again, there is no possibility to add smileys there in similar to other windows way. But, there is even easier method to do that in editbox, because it is RichEdit now (though it still requires some coding).
