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?

"XD"? As a graphical emoticon?

Blasphemy!


(I hate most basic graphical emoticons. Some of them—like the Firefox-loving-IE-rejecting one and the Jedi one, are interesting though limited in scope, but not basic ones like =), =(, =D, etc.)

I've now added "iffy".

:iffy: =

I think I actually agree with Laogeodritt in that it might be wisest to reserve character combinations associated with non-graphical emoticons.

Test....

WHOA.... I did not expect you to do that so quickly. I'm .... flattered and astounded.

EDIT: Made another. Hope you're happy, Jair.

I have reason to believe using the IMG tag isn't working here, so here's the link:

Nevermind. Me - 0. Server issues - 2.

<bad link was here>

EDIT: GOT IT!

<another bad link>
EDIT.... nope. =[


I ****ing give up. eSnips it is.



Should be

I'll start working on a smiley jammin' to some headphones.
In the meantime, any other suggestions?

Enigmus, I seriously think the problem is your computer/internet connection/browser. So far, I haven't had any problem whatsoever with the images you've linked or inlined.

Also: The image URI you used leads to a page entitled: "Please log into your eSnips account."

Enigmus, how did you do that? Nice Sith! Much better than my attempt. Can we add it Mike? (Enigmus's Version?) Oh and Enigmus, darken the yellow some, because naturally the hood would shade the face. (And don't forget to make the eyes Sulfur Yellow.)

I don't see a stoic Sith anywhere on this page. The byethost9.com link looks to be dead and eSnips prompts me to log in when I follow the link provided (they likely forbid direct linking to content).

Why not just attach it to a post?
