New Emoticons

I don't know if this has been suggested already but how about maybe updating the forum emotions? They seen a little outdated to me (especially with this awesome layout).

Just a suggestion.

You mean emoticons?

might i suggest

Don't mind the suggestion, though I don't really think of emoticons as things that need to be upgraded in the way design or technology does. They mostly just need to be easy to use and recognizable--the latter being one of the things I like best, because a lot of other sites go for aesthetics by washing them all out to be the same color, which makes them harder to tell apart at a glance.

I do rather like the idea of adding celebrity emoticons like the ones Frightened posted, though. Is there a large, fairly comprehensive source somewhere? That could be fun.

If there's more of these, I want 'em here. It would take this forum to yet another level.

That's understandable.

There is a few here:

Rodent could probably make some. Just cut out some heads, same size as these. Maybe he could even take requests from people. I need Whoopi Goldberg, Jake Gyllenhaal, Emilio Estevez, Nicolas Cage, James Dean, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson, Hollywood Montrose from Mannequin and a few others.

I like this idea SC.

Hmmm, I don't wanna just swipe them. If they're not freely available we might have to look at creating our own or something.

I'm super picky about this stuff, though. I might take a crack at a few and see how they come out.

That's fair enough. Would love to see some. I would do a few myself if I were at home.

I like:

I'd probably wanna keep 'em uniform. I really like the photo head ones of actors. If we can get a good set together I think we could add a bunch of those.

I would agree that we need the uniformity. Excited to see how the head emoticons turn out.

In the words of a broken heart, it's just...

If I could only add one, by the way, it'd be the Bill Murray one.

I put these in the artwork thread before... worth a look?

Marvel!



Ratman and Bobbin



Star Wars



Misc

Forgot this one...

Typical.

Not that I don't like Bill Murray, but typical.

It's small and not very clear looking. I like the Samuel L. Jackson one the best. I also like Jay Leno, but if I could only choose one, I wouldn't go with that, I'd go with Samuel.
