    As you may have noticed, we have replaced the default vBulletin set of smileys with a different set. We have also added a whole new category of "Items and Icons" that contains over 70 cartoon images and icons.

    Some notable smileys amongst these may be: :coffee::bomb::mail::flag::poop:
    (Just some random ones I thought you'd enjoy)

    We'd love to hear your feedback on these new smileys. :D

    I can see you are changing the smilies around. Special request. Could you leave these installed?
    thumbup (:thumbup:)
    cheers (:cheers:)
    :).... never mind, looks like you changed that one already, can we keep the other 2? or at least :thumbup: the way it is?

    I know the more balloon shaped smilies are quite popular, but not really my thing and like the older ones better.



    (Just made a post in the other smilie thread like this.)

    And also, please note that this ( :poop: ) is not chocolate soft-serve ice cream.

    :D

    Basically, we're only changing the default ones and just adding new ones to go alongside the extras we already have.

    Nick, I love that smiley set and I plan on adding it as my smileys on some sites in the future for sure! :)

    These smilies, are, well, not my preference, but what difference does my opinion make. I don't think it makes one.

    Great choice, though these are over-used. Have you considered a custom set? Shelley is great.

    Overused, Tom? I've never seen these used anywhere, to be honest. :shifty:

    I like them. So much so I'll be using my own variations similar to this style on my new site.

    A suggestion and I strongly suggest you implement this and use princetons script GTSmiliebox - Move Smilies Below Editor.

    I love the smilies! Are these something you had done up just for here? Or did you find them on the web?

    I have never seen any of them, except the 'poo' (one other place) hahah

    They can be found here: Pidgin 'Old' Tango Smilies GNOME-Look.org

    I much prefer the set Wayne uses on vBCodex.com, which can be found here: Pidgin Emoticons for Kopete KDE-Look.org
    ... but I'm not using it because I don't want to copy him. :lol:

    Shelley is also turning his set into an animated set, which is coming along nicely. She has a thread here in the Graphics Showoff section.

    Thats a great resource for images! I know I have seen that site before but I always forget things :( I could have sworn I have see these (or ones almost like these) animated already. Maybe on a mybb board? Or maybe on the new Joomla! forum (built for)?

    Either way thank you for the links :)

    I chose another set from there for my new site. Like I didn't already have enough smilies, now I have at least 100 more. :eek:
    I did resize them tho. I don't like large smilies.

    That site is a great resource for images.
