We hold our smilies to quite high graphical standards, so as a consequence we don't accept suggestions for new ones which aren't quite as pretty or don't fit in with the general aesthetic feel. Stylistically, they are based on Invision Power Board's set of smilies, which was the forum software we used to run before migrating to vBulletin.

If someone submits a suggestion which is high quality and matches our existing set's aesthetics, we will be happy to add it to the system. Unfortunately, the image being offered here doesn't meet those requirements, although we are of course grateful for the thought.

EDIT: Although the one above does. Might just touch up the mouth in GIMP, but other than that it looks very good.

I'll try to sort out the glare/dry/whistling/musicwhistle issue tomorrow when I have time.

Can I just ask, are you requesting we associate those character combinations with existing smilies, or are you asking for completely new ones to be added?
