Are there guidelines to making emoticons/smilies?

Thanks,

42

how abt mine :p:

43

Sure - I’ll have it added shortly pratik.

cr12 - the smileys have to be a bit original and follow the same size/color scheme of the rest of the smileys :slight_smile:

44

I’ll just do a “Save picture as…” on one then customize it.

Cool and Thanks,

hey pratik - I think it looks a lot nicer when it isn’t blinking. Would you mind if I add a non-animated version of this to the site? :slight_smile:

I think a slow blink would be best. Attention grabbing yet not annoying. Could still be annoying to have a blinking banner though I suppose…

51

ok it’s fine

I would be designing more :alien2:

Added your graphics pratik!

cr12 - while the smileys look nice, I don’t think they are ready to be added to the forums in their current form. The MC smiley, while it looks like the MC, doesn’t look like it would fit in with the rest of the smileys. I’m trying to make future smileys retain some of the yellowish colors and facial features that all of the rest of them have.

The smiley barf one looks a little…sick. You may want to make the edge of the barf a bit colorful/not flat. It seems to end too abruptly.

You should also post all new smilies in this thread: http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?p=622289 :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks!
