Emoticons Work-in-Progress Thread
I think I'm more likely to get feedback here than in the administration forum. Here's where I'll post updates, and you can give your feedback, requests, etc. on the new "smilies." Thanks!
Here's the latest:

Testing:
The previous ones got too jumbled if I made them too small so I enlarged the features. Does this still read as a cougar?

Ideally, the emoticons are the same height as the standard line of font. Practically, they are just a little bit bigger.Sammich wrote: Testing:

You're the expert. I can tell because it looks great!

It looks really nice! Can you make the background transparent so it doesn't have a white square around it?Sammich wrote:Testing:

Re: Emoticons Work-in-Progress Thread
I really like these, the Utard is hilarious!
I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

Re: Emoticons Work-in-Progress Thread
Yeah, I tried originally to shrink them down to the size of the current emoticons (15 pixels) but they became unreadable. So I'm going with a more practical 25 pixels. So they'll push the lines of text around a little but hopefully not be too disruptive.Mars wrote: Ideally, the emoticons are the same height as the standard line of font.

Yep, when I finally save them as .gif files I'll wipe out the background.hawkwing wrote: It looks really nice! Can you make the background transparent so it doesn't have a white square around it?

Re: Emoticons Work-in-Progress Thread
Sammich, I really like the icons you have come up with.
I don't want to offend anyone but once the new icons are ready...can I request that we keep this icon " :twisted: " for Catholicmat. His posts are not the same with out that icon...or I wonder if their is a cougar icon that can be created by sammich to be added in addition to the "mad cougar" icon that he has already created. I don't know if it is the red eyes or what but we just need a really evil cougar for Cmat (ok for me too and anyone else who wants to use it) if we are going to get rid of this one " :twisted: " Maybe a Cougar with an evil smile with drool or blood dripping out of its mouth... think "scar" from Lion King with one of his evil looks and make it a Cougar.
Just my 2 cents...feel free to completely ignore it and chalk it up to some crazed persons ramblings... :mrgreen:
