Should we switch to using smilies like these, or stick with the originals (note: switching to smilies like these would require changing the reading pane to a white background for them to display properly).

Hey they look great but the smilies we have now are fine imo. Would they be that big when you post them? because they are kinda large. :)

well, it would be something more like this:

[doHTML]<img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c158/Gatbunton/1.gif" width=35px height=25px>[/doHTML]

They are cool, but they are a bit big for my personal liking.

Here are the ones on my own forums. It's a horse and dog forums for an online game, hence some are horses or dogs. Most move, but not all.






Some of these are a bit useless, but most are actually a bit revealing of how the individual feels... Y'know? I find these two: :$: :?: Quite useless... They could easily be expressed by just going: $ or ?

Something like this: B) says "I'm cool", which is obviously more 'full of meaning' than a :$: ... I hope that I've made some sense. I'm a bit incoherent, sorry.

:lol:

yeah i prefer the smaller ones but lots of em

bah i hate when the post page is overrun with smilies

cant you have them on some page and have the URL to them and have people use them as images.

it would make them less likely to just spam them to up thier post count. im sure you have seen the post that consist only of a smiley.

the current smilies are fine for the post page please dont add any more to that part.

i like the smilies they help show what you mean at times when you can't describe it

Smilies do not necessarily have to be added to the left of the reply screen. You can set them to 'invisible' - and when people click 'Show All' they'll come up.

in tht case i wouldnt care. there is another forum that has a billion of them

I prefer the smaller smilies like we have now. I also like the thumbs up and stars.

:D

That is true, but I did find out that even if they arn't showing up, it does take longer to load the page... I was just thinking about replacing some of the more basic ones... ones that really don't have much use... like: -_- <_< ^_^ :mellow: :$: :?:

I don't see those being used very often, so I think we might as well get rid of them... then I saw those others, and thought they look really good... only problem is that they are not transparent.

is there a way someone could edit them so they are

I like the smilies we have just fine. No problem removing ones that aren't used often either.

I tried, but it comes out horrible... either you're left with white jagged edges, or you end up with transparent spots in the smiley...

I do use the first three, but not the last three! Don't take away my shifty smilie! <_<

All those listed are transparent. Some have the white dots. If you want me to send you any, let me know.

:blink: if you get rid of this im finding a new forum lol jokes

How about some of the smiles from archerysite.net archerysite smilies
One of the mods was in the army if you couldn't tell :D , but some are more expressive than what is here currently.

I can't see what you mean

ultimate bettas has more great smilies than we do. time to get more!! that would be nice :up: :music:

When someone just puts a post with a smiley it doesn't matter because if they are gone someone would just write something small instead of the smiley anyway.

bestsmileys.com has great smileys. and for you firefox users you can download smiley xtra

Thank you Bronz.

Thanks, I particularly like this one:




After all, who doesn't need an alien that boogies?
