Title: Smilies
Post by: Thor on August 09, 2002, 02:47:48 pm
I was wondering if it would be possible to add new smilies to the forums.  There are so many nice ones out there.  What do you guys think?:nod:

Admins can do it. But there are 38 already, that's a lot.

Well, wouldn't it be nice to have some other nifty smilies, so instead of using the same ones over and over again, we can have a wide variety.:p  And besides, you can never have enough smilies

If you really need a custom smiley then just image link it from its source. 38 smileys is quite enough to convey whatever you mean.

I think there are enough... and having many nod and grin smilies wouldn't be good, in my opinion. Maybe some different smilies, though, but I doubt that if admins add more smilies if they aren't really needed, or something like that... :blah:

(http://www.fattonys.com/phpbb2/images/smiles/dark2.gif) <-- that one might be good though, and the vomit one, though that was not at an0n's page... :D

Big ones? Nooo! Not the headz smilie! or :doh:!
 
Bump, wakka and snipe don't matter that much, but they're used sometimes, except bump not much. :)

I sure don't, but other people tend to. And some people abuse them in the most annoying manner.

They just can't take :D away, that one is needed. Because it's cool. And of course ;7, that's a good one too. Oh, the heck with it! Keep them all up.

Now I won't have to hunt you down.  They all have a purpose.

Personally i dont like the standard sarcasm smilie, ie :rolleyes: .  To me it says more "oh, not again!" or something like that.

Personally i use italics for sarcasm.  I just like italics.
And i dont really find much use for  :sniper:, or as much as we all love it, :headz:.
I dont like big smiles.  These two are my faves, they say so much... :doubt: :sigh:

What I would like to see is a smiley that is like an Ewok and it goes "Yub yub!!!":D

Rough translation: I agree whole-heartedly with your fine appriasal of the current smiley situation and applaud your excellent use of logic and tasteful restraint on this matter.

Better start sucking up to me, or we'll find out. Now, *****!:D

Methinks that this has run its course.
