Scripting?

Looks like all scripting is turned off on Livejournal? I put together a PHP script that I wanted to use for emoticons - just type <?php include("http://..."); emote("=)"); ?> instead of <img src = "http://..." alt = "=)" title = "=)" /> every time I want to insert a smile.

From my attempt to post in my own journal, it seems that the noble and entirely worthwhile goal of security has preempted my efforts of convenience. Any way to access a script like this (in any language, really)? Or is it just too risky.
