Windows Live Writer actually does have the ability to change font size, type, etc... Just go to the Format Menu and select Fonts.

If you want to add emoticons, there are plugins at:

Thank you ScissorMonkey.

I appreciate the really through answer. That really helped. And you really took the extra mile by putting a whole blog post and some screenshots about this. Really helpful, thank you.

quikboy - Try the following to address your questions about fonts and sizes:

a. In the menu bar, click Format, and then click Font.

b. This will display the Font window that allows you to change the font, style, size, and color.

There are numerous fonts and sizes that you can choose from to allow you to customize your post.

You could cheat with the smileys and emoticons, by taking a screen shot of the ones you are interested in and inserting them as images.

I wrote up a more detailed post with screen shots Changing Fonts in Windows Live Writer

Hope this is helpful and answers your questions. I didn't answer all your questions so I can understand you won't be really happy, but hopefully this will help you to at least be happy.

I just wish Live Writer had 3 quick features:

1. Different fonts

2. Fonts sizes

3. Smileys/emoticons (but please be different than the ones seen on WLM/MSN)

Then I'll be really happy. Wish they would do that.

Please, please, please provide a downloadable installer for this stuff. I'm behind a proxy which your installer can't negotiate. Ironically enough it's a Microsoft ISA Proxy, but it won't let a connection for your installer through. I'd love to install some of the new Live bits, but I can't get to them.

As with many such useful bits of software it will come down to unconventional blog sites integrating it.

Also that WLW isn't quite as indespensible as say notepad. Perhaps if notepad could be upgraded with some of WLW features NOTEPAD would be even more indespensible.
