Smilies & Forum Graphics

[Dinner]

So who were you intending to insult with the pig emoji? You said it was an insult and not even a veiled one. We shouldn't be using smilies to insult our members just as a matter of principle.

Why a Mexican Texas?

;trump This one still seems like a veiled insult.

Is this named after a poster who doesn't post here or the mythological character from Ireland? The face and hair do not look like the Irish mythological character so I am going to guess you recycled this from another website about someone who doesn't even post here.

The Panda one and the Albert Speer ones seem light hearted and pretty good.. same with the Asher one.

Not sure who Buno is or how it relates to Poly.

Heresson likes frogs, true, not so sure about smoking weed though.

In order:

Someone asked for it in my last smilie thread here. Sloww's a good sport, but we don't need it if he don't want it around

Yes it is. Not veiled.

It's Deirdre from SMACX. Doesn't matter who, though, not a people, just silly.

It's BU no. That's Ali C. and I don't expect it to survive.

Glad you like the panda -you would- but it probably needs funny hovertext. You get the spirit I want to work in... I sorta think the Asher is too vulgar, but that's up to you and Ming...

You may be right. I just added a weeping Kermit for him, too.

Check the hovertexts on those - especially in the menu under More Smilies »

I'm not being really serious, as it's a test or I couldn't morally justify taking initiative. I don't expect everything to stand up to scrutiny - codes, hovertexts, the .gifs themselves are all subject to change, according to the membership's wishes and the owner's call. I'm certainly not leaving my handle on the section name, 'cause fun's what it's about, not me showing off.



I AM intending to create a SMACX category and put all 14 leaderhead smilies in - and, you know, this is a gaming site; we ought to add a civ6 and find something to put in there...


Thank you for the serious feedback, and apology for the silly answers previous.

You think a pig is a good representation for JM? I disagree. Again, these should be light hearted and not insulting. Mean spirited personal insults should be deleted no matter who you are trying to target.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Jon Miller, of course.

[Dinner]

Ahh, ok, then the double post thing makes sense. The pig, not so much. Who are you insulting with that one? The Ming and Wiggy ones are in light humor and so good but personally insulting ones should be avoided. "Let's not speak his name" certainly implies you are trying to insult someone.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

That's Jon Miller, of course. The other is because he used to double-post constantly over an apparent tech glitch...

Added something as a test. Permissions are only partly untangled ATM, and there's a writing to server problem with some stuff...

Who is this one supposed to be?

[Dinner]

Jon Miller Smiley -

I don't get that one. How does it represent him?

[BeBMan]

Hey the Hippie dancing 'round the tree aka hippybull is glorious.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

self - note the Lebowski hovertext reference on the hippy. Enjoy.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Okay - I found I can create a smiley category, and I'm gonna burn an hour or so dumping a lot of my crap in there, also as a test easily undone by dumping the whole section.

On a more serious note, I wonder how hard it would be to find where the Christmas smilies are on the server and fix THAT section up...

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Solver has fixed something. <- These were attached.


Anyone have an opinion about smiley codes? Those would be ; butt and ; dog for example. No shift needed typing and no proper words begin with a semi. Make sense?
