Graphics/Smiley Requests

#1

So I have been doing the speed game banners and started doing some signatures. I am learning the ropes with my photoshop touch program and I am eager to get some more practice in. As such I decided (after consulting with MP) to start this thread where people could put in requests for signatures. I cannot promise how quickly something may get done, since it is all subject to my schedule at the time, but I would certainly love the creative project!

Additionally, we thought this would be a good space for people to request smilies. Let me be clear what we mean by that though. The admin and mods all have busy lives too and as much as we want to be able to research every request, we probably don't have time for that. So what we need from oI when you request a smiley, is for you to mind a smiley you like and post it here. It may require having the link so MP can retrieve it. I don't know all the ins and outs of that side of it. Keep in mind that there are only two people that can add smilies, I believe. One is MP, who is very busy finishing his masters and getting his CPA, and the other is LT, who admins her own site. They are both very busy! So again, I can't promise when it will be done, of if we will feel it is appropriate for our site and usable on a dark background. However, the best way the smiley selection can be improved is if we all chip in and find some good ones!

I propose that we remove all smilies and go back to doing it with text the way we did in the good old days. ;^)

Cave paintings?

Just to clarify, I am actually the only one who can add or delete emoticons because it requires access to my Bluehost cPanel. Even if that wasn't the case, I would and do take full responsibility for that function, so I will handle all of the emoticon duties. LT is surely plenty busy with her own site and I very much appreciate everything she has done above and beyond in helping to start up and maintain this site.

This is a fantastic thread idea because I know I've gotten requests during games for particular smileys or particular categories of smileys, and I try to get around to adding them or searching for more, but IRL occupations plus other non-emoticon related website administration activities never allow for enough extra time and they get unintentionally delayed. So please, if any of you have an emoticon you really want, post it here. I promise I'll try to evaluate each and every one of them and add the ones selected on a timely basis as much as possible. Again, just because you post 1 or 100 emoticons here doesn't mean I will necessarily add them, but I will do my best to placate and add awesome emoticons to the bunch we already have.

Additionally, Daisy has already picked up banner and signature making pretty well (see her and my new signatures as well as the speed game banners thus far as evidence) and I know she's been enjoying it, so feel free to give her more to do!

I love the new siggs - but it begs the question - did she actually use a picture of YOU to get eaten by a sock?

#7

Lol, I wish that were the case...

#8

this is my favorite tongue smiley maybe you can use it for

which I miss and need in my posts.

another I miss totes is

My all time favorite -

But for now I would be happy with any tongue smiley

daisy I think I need a cool new banner for the site. You know what I am all about how about whipping something up?

#9

My all time favorite does not look good with this background

what about

just kidding

not everyone is a grasshopper fan

now this one is the best

#10

We need noble and the other typh face from piano...

#12

Ugh. http://www.pianomafia.com/phpBB/viewtop ... start=1520#

#13

That was a lot of work on an iPad.

#14

Here are some Thomas smilies for the kid game coming up.

#15

I keep all of those Piano smilies in my photobucket account to link to fast if i need them, lol.

#16

Roxy already has her signature, but so other people can see what I've already done, here is the one I made for her.

#17

So I added just a few smileys, including the ever-needed

, the noble (of course)

, this one because why not as it fits some circumstances perfectly

, and then thellama gets his own smiley now as well

. There were a few others I tried but they looked terrible on the black background. Keep those suggestions coming! And if I haven't gotten to yours yet and you think there is no reason for me not to (it could be I overlooked it, I'll admit that), feel free to pester me!

#18

I don't know how to make them appear over here from RM but the one I really needed to use the other day was the one where the smiley runs around in circles with its mouth in an "o" - signifies "oh no!" or "I'm all stressed".

#19

Yay for

and

much <3

I think Juliets means the

smiley.

I don't think we have this one yet? http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-fc/freddy.gif

#29

I needed a headdesk smiley today for complaining and noticed that the forum doesn't have one.

This is best one I could find. Can we add it?

#30

Oh, I see Rob already requested it. Well I second!

#31

ture, that one is pretty much essential.

#32

#33

Sorry that I've fallen behind on this. Will look into these today or tomorrow.

#34

If anyone starts to add up banners and needs them combined into one image in order to display in the character restricted signature space, get with me and I can do that for you.should be pretty simple actually.

#35

Can we have a ferret avatar/smiley like the one on RM?

#36

Need a ferret smiley!! Also this one dear Lizzy found cause it is 100% essential in order to play mafia.

#37

Yes please!

#38

Some smileys have been added, more to follow!

So sorry this took me so long!

#39

Also, they have been rearranged~ the commonest are on the posting page, and "personal" smilies, large ones and more active gifs have been moved to the second page. To find them, go all of the way to the bottom of the smilies displayed next to the posting box, and it says "View More Smilies". Go to subsequent pages, and there they be

If you will use one there a lot, just memorize the code~

#40

OMG I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! :tea:

(Now I have no fun excuse to harass MP in as many different games as possible.

I am sure I will think of something.)

#41

This guy is awesome and well timed

#43

Can you please add these when you have a chance. Please and thank you.

#44

Cute!

#45

This is cute! Located @ http://www.mikesteffler.com/graphics/burger.gif

#46

I would love to have :giggles: from HV or :politegiggle: from RM.

Same with :panic: from HV or

from RM. -

something that is not that smiley but similar in theme would be welcome as well.

also a blushy that does not make me look like I was going to puke would be awesome. I get the pack was cute - but that one is sad. I'd be happy with a :blush2: or something - :eyebat: - we don't have that one? that one would be good too. I kiss up alot.

#47

ok - we have

my bad for not realizing it.

bad bea. bad bea. *smacks hands then a cheek for good measure*

#48

It has become increasingly clear to me that The Syndicate needs a smiley makeover. We need more more more!

My idea is that people can post in this thread which emoticons they'd like to see added, and maybe if the mods agree they can add some of them for us!

Without further adieu, my suggestions...

- D'oh!

- Canadian?

- Burn!

- Hyper

- Boogie

- Why I oughta...

- Acting spishus!

- A wizard did it

#49

We still don't have a beer smiley.

#50

Yes, thank you for this, TH. My problem is that I'm usually multitasking when I'm on the site, and when people suggest smileys in games, I think of it, but then it slips my mind, and I haven't found a good method of consolidating the smiley requests.

Spacedaisy started up a thread just like this a while back. But when I think about it, I should have moved that thread to the Lounge. Perhaps I can consolidate the two threads.

This will make it much easier for me to go in and add a bunch of emoticons at once.
