hadn't even investigated it that far 
weird thing is tho that preview did show the smiley but once posted you can see the leading space disappear and the smiley doesn't work.

Hello!
When you get a e-mail notification for a reply to something you have posted, there is no way to distinguish between the reply, and the users signature (In the mail)
Should not a Line-Break or some such separate the reply from the signature?

do we need the signature to be mailed at all?
long messages get truncated so they don't show a signature in the mail, which is fine.

Whilst a sig is nice, it's not really needed in a message reply!
With your reply, I got:

--------------------------- This is one of the lines in your sig ---------------------

Without your custom added lines, the "I only read code that..." bit would look like part of the reply

I will update the stylesheet in the emails so the sigs are separated.

you should not do so without leaving a message explaining what the improvement is, and how it could be improved further. As it is, both the author and all the readers are puzzled by your actions.

When the message gets deleted, the toolbar like 'Reply, Email, View Thread, Permalink, Bookmark' should also be appropriately made invisible right?

Clearly that would be optimal.
However, our handling of deleted messages is suboptimal at the moment.

Chris, here's another idiot who's posting bogus answers to random questions. Yes, I've clicked on the Remove button, but I suspect this guy is going to keep at it - he just registered today, probably the same guy as before.

I hit my 25th article last week and my status is still showing as gold. I thought 25+ articles made you a platinum member.

Pete,
I have faced the same issue.
AFAIK : Member status does not include Technical Blogs.  Only articles submitted directly to Codeproject with will be counted.
And I hope CP Team will change this.
Hope Chirs can give you more input on this.

With respect, I hope they will not. Articles take much more preparation time and work than a 20-line blog. It would be an embarrassment to the site and an insult to article authors if that were to happen.

I am agree with you. But few members blog articles are also excelent.
I have asked the same question to chris few times back. Hope he can give us more clear view.

Hans, what do you think of a different threshold for blogs? Say 75 as opposed to 25 - that way if someone has 12 articles and 39 blogs, he effectively has 25 pro-rated articles (3 blogs == 1 article). And he gets Platinum.

Nish dear, I have a doubt.
Seriously, though, I think the ratio of 3 : 1 completely misses the point. I don't want to see any blog entries ever counted toward anything.
That said, I realize I will probably be in the minority, but 3 : 1 is way too much. How about 200 : 1? And to even be included in that, the blog entry must have a rating of at least 4.

Speaking of ratings, it would be neat if the article rating played a role in membership level. Perhaps a cumulative article rating of 100 gets you platinum status (25 articles with ratings of 4 or 100 articles with ratings of 1). But that makes things complex, which of course the CP team hates. You'd have to worry about when to count those votes... the highest vote achieved for each article would be one option (but that would likely be 5, given that members can rate their own articles right away). Perhaps the highest cumulative vote of all articles at any given time (because ratings smooth out over time, so should be a good indicator of quality). Still, this might encourage users to increase the quality of their articles (although article quality is usually pretty good anyway).
Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.

It will be better if It is Popularity rather than Rating. One Single Vote can give 4 rating to an article. So I will suggest for Popularity more than 4/4.5 rather than Rating 4.

200:1? You're kidding.
Yes, some blogs are weak, but some articles are also weak. Conversely there are some excellent, excellent technical blogs that clearly have had far more time put into them than some articles.

I'm sorry, I can't really say that I am.
When blogs started appearing on CP, I read all of them. For weeks and weeks. What I found: they were all unremittingly superficial forgettable crap. I don't want to read about taking animals to vets, problems with UPS deliveries, where to shop for a good deal on socks, how you can set up your password so you can rock your coffeecup back and forth on the keyboard and log in. Yes, I'm exaggerating, and no, if blogs disappeared today I wouldn't miss them.
If blogs aren't held to the same standard as articles then they should not be counted at all for anything.
OK, now you know how I feel, now let's turn the question around. Why not set up a separate "career path" for bloggers? You know, like maybe Iron, Cadmium, Tritium? This would be far better than trying to mix the apples & oranges of articles & blogs.
