I hang out here more often than any other site as of late. If I am to be here this often, I am going to need some key smilies brought in. Your current selection is lacking.
if I were to post them here, could we get them added? I'd give you a cookie. And a hug. And......not hate you.

Smilies are easy to add. Post you suggestions and let people vote on them.

I went with Bob Dole, though I could have easily gone with Chucklez's ass. When will these be implemented as smilies?

Personally I am in favor of anything that fits in with the classic smilies... Felicitous Ecstatic Happiness Razz Embarrassed Melancholy Enthusiastic Grin Surprised *nudge* Happy Birthday! ect

or atleast lacks animation. You should post examples...just use [img][/img] tags. For example:

I agree with Matt. I just want one with a halo, or a small set of wings.

And just when would you need to use an angelic smilie, Courk? Razz

EDIT: I want a teddy bear smilie...

What's so difficult in using your own smilies?

Well, I'd say 91 characters for yours, versus an average of 5.4 characters for ones set up for the GL.

Not difficult, but inconvenient.

However, IMO, some things *should* be inconvenient. Personally I don't want a whole bunch of animated multi line gifs made easy to use. At that point, instead of being a flavor to the message, they're the whole message.

But I like that angel one that Logain posted. It could be set up as :angel: or something.

Oh, I just noticed the halo moves. Why would anyone add that? They should be shot.

ax the halo movement and I like it. Could it be yellow? And look more innocent? Like, looking up and to the side without the grin?

If I were less busy, I'd show what I mean.

I would never use the following, since we all have to begin somewhere, but



Also I think *nudge* looks too much like Felicitous and I don't really like Wink
Perhaps if *nudge* was white or blue instead, like

In general I don't like animated smilies. Some of the ones above would certainly annoy me if used too often.
I am just showing them here to prompt further discussion.

I like the soap box one, and at least someone else got my hint about Chucklez's ass. Now all we need is Bob Dole and we'll be set.

Now make the halo a tad darker so we can see it, and it'll be great.

I also think the animated smileys are annoying. And does anybody else find the happy monkey really scary?

maybe the key factor of angels is that you can't see they are clearly angels until you look closely? oh wait, the wings and heart give it away ;-)

We should all take pictures of ourselves with various expressions on our faces and use them as personalized smilies.

I forgot I made this thread, actually. (You need a subscription function, but that's for another forum) Some of the ones I want have been posted here already. Just to be clear, I do not want it to end up like MTGSalvation where I came from where there is an obsene list of gif smilies. with milti-line animation. While :Banana: might be nice, and :banghead: is essential, some like :vader: are just dumb.
I think I shall have someone show my computer-retarded ass how to post outside smilies right, then I will make a new thread with a poll. I would say anything that gets more than 5 votes should be added. There are about 20-25 smilies I would put in the poll.
I'll do that sometime soon. And by soon, I mean in a few weeks.

I don't know how good a poll would be for that. I mean, a lot of peopel might like 2 smilies, but vote for the first one. An old-fashioned vote might be the best.

Let's not have the bananas. Let's get head bangy and angel.

The Poll: I forgot, I am used to MTGSalvation polls that have options for things like "Allow multiple votes" and "make poll public". I'll just do an old fashioned vote then, and keep a tally.
Mat: I knwo how to use [img] tags, my main consern was if animated smilies will work right if I try to [img] them from a photobucket account.
