Post by: Fineus on January 29, 2001, 01:36:00 pm: Agreed, but we may still change things around here- if things become a problem then something can (and probably will) be done.

Post by: Fineus on January 30, 2001, 09:20:00 am: Ok, I'm interested... Justify the use of more smilies and I'll give it proper concideration.

Post by: Fantomeye on January 30, 2001, 11:28:00 am: I'll put it this way: If you post the smilies that you want, I'll check them out and add the ones I like (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
Title: how about crack's smilies?
Post by: Admiral on January 30, 2001, 01:44:00 pm: Smilies are annoying if they are too big because they make a thread seem like a joke, and if they're used too much here then it might just be seen as another Warpstorm. Just an opinion though.

Post by: heretic on January 30, 2001, 02:38:00 pm: I agree. Save the silliness for WS (otherwise all the traffic would probably make me close WS down)

I'd like this to remain a serious forum for intelligent topics, admin'd by (mostly) intelligent people (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Post by: Wraith on January 30, 2001, 03:30:00 pm: I think smilies like the gapping mouth would be fine. Anyting that shows emotion and only one of them; you don't need to be excessive. Another I might suggest is a tied up smilie face around the mouth, maybe with a chain. Currently I haven't seen one like this and is this. If you want it, I'll make one for you guys. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Good hunting,

Edit: Fantomeye is correct in the next post: There is that teethy grin smilie... but it is only a teethy grin! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/mad.gif)

Or would you like the smiley that looks like a chain but is actually a teethy smile? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Post by: Wraith on January 30, 2001, 03:57:00 pm: Well, I really like that one, and I would love for it to be a chain, but i was told it was a teethy grin... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

*slumps head*

If only it were a chain... *sigh* (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/mad.gif)

I totally agree with you! In a mostly serious forum like this, the types of smileys you suggest still have some use.

Post by: Fineus on January 31, 2001, 01:57:00 am: Yeah- theres no need for the overboard smilies like the "UT weapons smilies" and so on, they just have no place here.

Post by: Shrike on January 31, 2001, 02:21:00 am: There are some (about 5 or so) that would be fine, like the wry smile, etc. Ones that convey emotions that are not in the basic set.

That being said, we don't really need the Redeemer, the penguin, spam or other similar types.
