Title: Smilies!
Post by: Zerzal Nephardyuel on December 03, 2008, 09:26:06 AM
Call me a jerk if you want, but I strongly dislike smileys which aren't properly made transparent, like these, for example: 
-  :-*
-  :ninja:
-  <:-)
The white pixels surrounding them are a bit of a shame, as otherwise, they would be perfect.

If you wish, I can correct them if I find the time, I gladly do such things.

Or... I just yesterday found an old site of mine. A series of smileys I made myself!
So none of them is copyrighted except for by myself.
Please feel free to incorporate any or all of them here if you like!
You will see that they greatly fit the fantasy theme of our family!

There is a dwarf, a musketeer/swashbuckler, an emperor for Njorn, an elf, a knight, a cute Kerran, am erudite... and a lot of funny orcs depicting various emotions.
The one smiley, clapping hands in irony... well... maybe I will turn that one into an orc doing that if I find time and motivation to do so. Would be soooo cool, an ironic orc!

Oh yes... Apollonja will find that the orcs are peculiar familiar to her. 
;D

And H E R E (http://users.telenet.be/kennin/smileysite/) is the link!

BTW: I VERY much like this touched one: (http://users.telenet.be/kennin/smileysite/ontroerd.gif)

Smilie added! I can drop those three if you like. I added the birthday hat and cake w/ candle one because we needed a smilie for birthdays. The other two were here when I became XO and I'm not too attached to them, so I'm open to making any changes you like!

I can also try to get the smileys to be really transparent... getting those aweful white pixels around them to disappear.

But why don't you have a look at the link I gave you.
If you don't like them, no problem! :)

I like these very much, btw: 
:uglystupid2: O0 :tickedoff: :viking2: :police: :idiot2: :knuppel2: :smitten:

I also like these if they get corrected: 
:BH: :-* :hug: :tan: :candle: :fln:

Oh... and as a present... I will definitely work on those birthday smileys! :)

Here is the party hat birthday smiley already:
(http://users.telenet.be/kennin/grafs/bday.gif)

The Njorn smiley is a rather peculiar coincidence really. I had that once for myself, back then when I had my own forum about fantasy games, where I called myself jokingly... you won't believe this... "emperor"!  ;D

I will have a go at the bday cake candle blowing out smiley... but I cannot promise a thing.

Hey! You all said my name like thrice! So that makes it clear you love me tons! Cant' live without me...

Can't live!!!!!!!! If livin' is wi'out Njorn!

Can't Liiiiivveee!!!! Can't live anymore!!!!!!!!

I can't liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeiiiiiiiiieeeeiiiiiiiive, if livin' is wi'out Njorn!

*hums happily*

Aaaaaaaand the candle blowing smiley!


EDIT
Oh! There is something wrong here!
Wait a sec!

Here you go!

I moved all the smilies with bad transparencies to the [more] popup, so the other ones you should see be fine.  :bdg

Here... I made a new "blonde"
(http://users.telenet.be/kennin/grafs/blondevamp.gif)

Whatcha think?

BTW: I'm having GRRRRRRREAT fun with this! Stop me if you don't want this. :)

BTW2: If you DO like these... don't hesitate to ask for special requests. I cannot promise anything, but I will try to make them all!

Post by: Lyrima on December 03, 2008, 04:10:50 PM
Wait. Wait...they're GONE??

But I LOVE those :( :( :(

Can't we have Zerzal fix them and keep them?? /sniffle

So many of them have the names of our friends as the short cut.

Where's my Ime? And tan??

:-\ :-\ :-\

I say get rid of the stupid looking tongue out one and keep the one that pulls himself thin and opens his mouth. I'd put it here but I can't SEE it.

Ok. the Huggie ones can go /shrug  Rarely use them anyway.

If you could make one that is with a larger cup of coffee/tea and name it Ime I'd be delighted. I was always disappointed with that one.

NINJA! We need ninja back! we use it ALL the time!

I would LOVE a black haired smilie for Lyrima. Heh.

:kia is for Kiaria. She STAYS. /glare

Post by: Zerzal Nephardyuel on December 03, 2008, 04:16:32 PM
Waaaaait a sec!

None of them are gone, really!
They are under "More".
When you reply, just above the frame you type, there is a link called [more]. There you will find all those that are not visible at first.

YES! I am working on getting the ones with bad transparency fixed! Don't worry!
I'm just not THAT fast!
Whip me, if you wish... it won't help... and of course, I'd make you EAT that whip... but that's another story. What? No... no salt, not cooked and no herbs or sauce for the whip...

You want to keep that blonde smiley you already have?
Okies! But lemme et a shot at improving the transparency then!

The black haired elf is in the planning! Nice request!

:brfm  <-- this one should be called :jsn: IMO.

Why not move the bouncing flames out? OH and I never liked I'm with Stupid or Sarcasm Off..they can go to the 'more' slot too /nod
Title: Re: Smilies!
Post by: Lyrima on December 03, 2008, 04:18:13 PM
I found them

*hugs Zerzal*

And NONE of that was directed at you. It was Namae!   :ana and  :pms  for scaring me like that!

I don't CARE that Namae clearly stated they were moved under more and I missed that in my first panicked reading and posting.  STILL her fault.

/nods wisely

They're still here, and if you remember the codes they even still work. I've only actually deleted two, the one Lady Zerzal has provided fixed replacements for. The other ones have been hidden inside the popup window that appears when you click [more] right above the message window.

Also, I kinda sorted the ones that are left by height... so the ime  :ime: coffee cup is still on the main menu, it's just been move to be closer to emotes the same size as it. Though now that I look at it, it probably needs a fix, too.

I tried to add the ninja  :sneak: but somehow he snuck into the board himself! Look out!!

He's only one Ninja, so according to the Law of Conservation of Ninjitsu (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ConservationOfNinjutsu) he's nigh invulnerable!!  :o

Yes but. Yes but.

Couldn't we move them back IN and move OUT the ones I suggested?

Post by: Zerzal Nephardyuel on December 03, 2008, 05:01:32 PM
It's ninjUtsu... not ninjItsu...
ninjutsu means "method of stealth" or "stealth technique". Ninjitsu means "truth of stealth" which might be more esoterical, but that's not true... the esoterical version of ninjutsu is ninpō.
No joke! :)

Well... here's the boogie smiley!

What's her race?

Please, if you have requests, don't forget to add certain information I need to make the smiley:
Race, colour of hair, gender.

Ok, I added all the new smilies, and removed any copies. Thank you Zerzal!

And Lyrima, sure I can move the smilies with signs up to the top, in fact it's a good idea to separate them just because they're so much larger, but for the moment I'm using the [more] section to separate out the smilies with jaggies.
