So, with the recent increse in cool-lookin' smilies, & thought a little discussion was in order?

What new Smilies would people like to see?
What don't you like?
Exactly what expression are the Warners making?
Think a Batman Smiley would work?(hm..black wallpaper..and..he don't do smiles..)


On a site called "off topic"(which has a whole load of..stuff. So, I will not give a direct link), they have "thumbs up" smileys? They also have various other "up with fingers" smileys..but that just isn't appropriet here! hehe. Anyway, I thought maybe a "thumbs up" clip would be nice? It'd go well with smilies like :D
But, thats my suggestion.

> What new Smilies would people like to see?

::shrug:: ...I'm figuring three lab mice, myself. Dunno if I can fit them at smiley resolution, though. =x

> What don't you like?

D*sney smilies. ;-)

> Exactly what expression are the Warners making?

Yakko's winking, Wakko is lost / confused, and Dot's looking quite innocent. They'll be animated as soon as I get me some gif animation software.

> Think a Batman Smiley would work? (hm..black wallpaper..and..he don't do smiles..)

Maybe... could be for a "serious" face. Dunno if it'll work, but I guess I can try...

I think a relieved face, a barfing face, and an 'in pain' face would be cool. ooh and maybe one with a sneer.

Hmm, a smiling Batman? We could use that as the gives you the creeps looking face.

Well, rather than having a "smiling" Batman why not just go with the classic golden oval batshield?

It's a registered trademark. TZ could get sued.

Perhaps an evil smilie. Throwing-up smilie. And Pinky! Are we gonna get Pinky on the board? (Reasons are obvious....when someone is feeling fun-fun, silly-willy! Troz!)

Aren't Yakko, Wakko, Dot, and Bosco trademarked as well?

Wait... Isn't "D'Oh!" trademarked as well?

At least as "Play Doh"(c) TM (r)...?

No one's gonna get sued over a smiley. There's an extremely remote chance they'd ask us to get rid of smileys of copyrighted characters, but I doubt they'd even do that. :wakko:

Uh, Brian... aren't profits dipping a little low at the Networks this year? Even at a cent a :dot: , it's gonna be...
Aw, skip it! :D This ain't the legal thread.

Yet.

I thought this would be better suited on the Feedback and Suggestions board?

Gee, if we get enough great smilies here, who would need mysmilies.com?

hmm..I'd like a Bat-signal, Robin-signal, Batgirl-signal and Nightwing Signal..of course, they'd just be the signals that appear on their suit.. :)

I'd like to have a skull-and-crossbones smiley. For those times that the angry one isn't enough!

What exactly is that silver one with the red cheeks? A mime smiley?

It's supposed to be an embarassed smiley. Romey wanted it to display shock as well as embarassment, but I think he's working on redoing it. At least, we were talking about it on the feedback and suggestions board!

Yes, it's an embarassed smiley! An embarassed smiley!!! What's wrong with you people?! Aaaaaaaaaargh!

Hey, the :o face is cool. Dont knock it!

I was wondering, how do you use the mysmilies.com smilies? Do you save the image onto your hard drive or do you link directly to their site?

you click on the smilie, copy the code, and paste it here as a direct link. Its real simple. The code you copy already has the IMG code intact.

Those kinda look like the little creatures from Princess Mononoke.

you are correct. Too big to be a smilie I guess, it was under animals.

Big? You want BIG????

LOL. Great job! I bet you've just started a fad where everyone starts putting up smilies that make u scroll for hours! Maybe The Great Wall of Smilie...

What I meant was if you use the Batman logo for a smilie. That's all. :o (I say that smilie looks like it's about to toss it's cookies.... :D)

I think the best one Belch posted (I think it was his) was the one smilie going up behind another smilie and....well...you know.

But my favorite of them all was actually one I posted, of Marilyn Monroe in a striking pose with smilies over her you know whats! That got a great response! I dont' remember the thread, but I sure do remember the smilie!

Here's Cal's dream girl: http://www.theunholytrinity.org/cracks_smileys/contrib/xerx/smileybreasts.gif. I actually have some pics of her early Playboy work, given to me by one of my followers during my days as a columnist. And in that vein, here's one I like-- http://www.theunholytrinity.org/cracks_smileys/contrib/xerx/smileydavid.gif

Here's a "Death to Osama!" smiley--http://www.contrabandent.com/pez//contrib/blackeye/AR15firing.gifhttp://www.duhspot.com/users/smiley/s/contrib/xerx/happykhamenei.gif

They have all-new wrestler smileys at mysmilies.com as well. Foley is Good might be able to find one of his idol....

But also Jeremy Duncan smiley for me!

How do I make a smiley by the way?
