    Of course we all want it. We all also want my :rotflmao:, :money: and :dl: smileys. And it wouldn't hurt to have my :branchinthreadstyleforumssuckhard: one too. (j/k)

    Thumbs up Hassle GP? never

    I'll take whatever smilies I can get.
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

    My greatest wish is to be half the poster MikeH is.

    I don't see why not more smilies are allowed. While there is a premium on the space to the panel of smilies, there's an easy solution. Leave all the most commonly used ones on the panel, while all of them can be accessed by code. That means Markos has to write up a similies dictionary, but that's no big whup for him.

    1) actually, we can have 10 or 20 smilies showin up on the panel, with a link to a page with the rest
    2) there is already a page with all the smilies, it's linked to the "Smilies are ON" text

    3) the point in not adding every single smilie that is suggested is to have the best/most common ones

    Markos if you consider the "no to piss me off" votes as "yes" and the "don't care" as a "no", than I'm winning. It's so cute...ya gotta like the Beaver!

    I think there needs to be a line between the head and the arm because it looks like it has something growing out of its head.

    I'm glad for that. What if I had to cash 10 new smilies every time I go here?

    1. Reducing the number of smilies increases load speed though

    2. I missed that link. It's just rather subtle

    3. I understand your concern, though it's not a problem other than potential abuses, and most Aolytoners have more senses than to abuse smilies.

    That's the dumbest smilie I've ever seen.

    Looks like Mr. Pacman with a hard-on. An unimpressive one at that!

    One proper arm would be fine, like with his smiley slamming the fist.

    Edit: Just wanted to say that the concept is great, just needs more noticable execution.
