Allow me to walk people throught the setup for smilies step by step. There still seems to be a lot of confusion on this:

1. <User CP> (top menu bar, first one on the left)
2. <Edit Options> (first menu along left edge of screen, fourth choice down)
3. Scroll to the bottom of the screen, to the section labeled "Miscellaneous Options"
4. In the "Message Editor Interface" section, choose "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing".

Now when you compose a post you should see some smilies to the right of the text box, as well as some options above the text box for additional functions such as Inserting a Link, Inserting Images, adding Attachments, as well as text size, color, font, bold, underline, bullets, etc.
