I dunno, I hate doing the italics and such too!  I think that's why I still haven't finished posting my old story You'll Never Walk Alone, cause a lot of it uses italics in the later part of the story.  Just thinking of going through and putting the stupid <*i> before and after all that makes me twitch!

The tiny toolbar would be easier, but it never seems to work right for me, probably because I use Word.  It just messed up the formatting rather than making it easier to format LOL.

I copy directly from word too and it's true, I also have to go back and fix the formatting but it only takes a second. The only thing that messes up for me is the title centering so I always just have to rehighlight and left center everything again.

I'll have to try again next time I post something.  I got too frustrated with it a long time ago and gave up LOL.  Adding the tags is a hassle, but at least I can pretty much guarantee the chapter will look the way I want it to when I post it.
