Facepalm Smilie

[n3wt]

Is there any chance of a Facepalm Smilie in the smilie box? It would be awesome to have one for the times when you cannot believe a post, comment or what silly movie is coming out soon etc :laugh:

Just a thought ;)

Maybe a poll is in order here :D

[Iroquois]

What a silly idea.

[n3wt]

I dont think so Iro we have loads of smilies why not a facepalm?

[Iroquois]

I never said I didn't want it to happen, though.

[n3wt]

My bad http://forum.E46Fanatics.com/images/smilies/facepalmsmiley.gif

See the system works :laugh:

That one's not bad. I looked around once but never found one I loved, but I guess that one's as good as it'll get. So be it: :facepalm:

[christine]

Oh N3wt what have you done? :facepalm:

:laugh:

[Iroquois]

:facepalm:

Well, at least this saves me trawling Google Images whenever a particularly irritating poster shows up.

[Yoda]

Yeah, this sucker'll probably launch to the top of the usage charts (not that we have any such charts...yet) pretty quickly.

:facepalm: :cool: :p

[n3wt]

Awesome :facepalm: cheers Yoda :up:

[honeykid]

Loving the facepalm smilie. Good work. :up:

Should we replace the current facepalm smilie...

:facepalm:

...with this, which looks more like the other ones?

I have a feeling I'll be in the minority but I do like that new one better.

[rauldc14]

I like the old one but I can deal with either.

[Godoggo]

The reason I don't like the old one is that I know it's supposed to be Homer, but it looks like an ill-drawn circle to me.

[seanc]

I like the old one as well. Sorry Godoggo.

[Godoggo]

Wait. It's not supposed to be Homer. What exactly is that thing?

[Cobpyth]

The problem with the new one (in my opinion) is that the hand is too small and therefore it's less effective.

[gbgoodies]

I like the old one better. The new one is too small to know what it means at a quick glance.

[Godoggo]

I just don't get the shape of the old one. If it was round I'd be fine with it.

My answer...:facepalm:

It's not round, because the smiley's head is in a slightly tilted position while also bending forward a little when doing the facepalm, just like most people do in real life. It adds a humane and realistically imperfect touch to it.

[Godoggo]

If you tilt a round object it's still round. ;)

I knew I would be in the minority anyway, so you guys keep your oddly Homer shaped smiley with five fingers. :D

I just want a shark emoticon.

[The Rodent]

I prefer the old one. It's a bigger hand covering the face and seems much more insulting than the new one.

We need this one though... http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons/emoticon-animal-001.gif (http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons.php)

[Gatsby]

Like the old one. The new one looks like a hand grabbing a gumball.

Hell no. I can tell that the one we've been using is supposed to be a facepalm. That new one looks like someone picking their nose.

Not if you bend it forward. ;)

[Godoggo]

Not if you bend it forward. ;)

I did. It still didn't turn into Homer's head. :p

The old one's clearer and, therefore, better IMO.
