More Smilies
on: April 03, 2004 04:35

I've had a request to add more smilies to the forum section, which I'm completely amenable to. I need suggestions, though. If you have any smilies that you would like to see added to this forum, please reply and include the smiley in your post, using the [img] tag (or, if worse comes to worse, link to the page where the smiley is that you want). But PLEASE be exact. Don't just say "There's some nice smilies here"

Thank you

Let me add that they need to be approximately the same size as our current ones, i.e. 15x15. I'm not up for resizing a bunch of images

While in chat, you can do the following ones, but I don't know where they come from...

:kiss: ~ a smilie kissing the cheek of another smilie

:cheers: ~ two smilies clinking beer mugs (I'm sure it's rootbeer...)

:banghead: ~ a head banging against a wall (would that be a frownie???)...

On this MSN Smilies page, I'd like to see the:

Thinking
Party
Vampire bat
Sarcastic (raised eyebrow...)

i have no idea why these might be useful.. but they are darn cute (they are from another site i can link you to if necessary, i dont know what the etiquette for using smilies is- like if you need permission and stuff)

<--- happy dance

<--- pat pat

<--- roll eyes

<--- work

actually most of those are probably more suited to journals.

Oh! I love this idea! I've kinda been thinking the same thing. Here are some that you might think interesting:

<---- "hi"

<-------"angel"

<------"smug"

<----"woohoo" I personally would like to see this one added, because it would be used eeeeverywhere...and it's cute!

<-------"twitch"

<-----"yes"

<------"no"

<----"thumbsdown"

<----"thumbsup"

<------"shrug"

<---------another "shrug"

<-------"doh"

<---------"egad"

<-----wacko

Well I havent got any smilies to add just yet but I do love the pat pat smiley.

The jaw drop one is fun too and of course we should have a hug one

I really like the book reading smiley I also like the one called Wub, hehee and the poor little ice cube one.

Okay, I've added several new smilies to the forum, which you can view by clicking "More Smilies" when you add a new topic or reply. I tried to pick at least one or two from each person that suggested new ones.

I don't think we ought to add any more unless you feel we're really missing something, because the more we add, the slower the forum can become (basically, the forum script has to parse each forum reply through _all_ of the smilies and insert the appropriate image code where appropriate...more smilies = more parsing, and hence more time and a slower forum.)

Am I the only one who, when they click on the "more smilies" link, gets nothing?

make sure you don't have javascript turned off, and that you don't have a pop-up blocker.

The smilies aren't disabled and there shouldn't be anything there to block it... so I tried signing out because sometimes that works but they still don't come up.

Awww Rivka, great job!! :cheers: I absolutely love your choices, but do you think that you could add one more? I know that there is a "dizzy" smilie, but no "confused" or "question" smilie. Here it is:

What do you think?
