Please change the AIM smilies to the following, I can't bother to remember each :aiminsertmood: code for each smiley, and it's easier this way, methink. ;)
I only made 2 smiley changes from the original AIM version. O=) for angel, and =-/ for umm...
:aimangel: -> O=)
:aimblush: -> :-[
:aimsun: -> 8-)
:aimsad: -> :-(
:aim$: -> :-$
:aimsurp: -> =-o
:aim~: -> :-!
:aimhappy: -> :-D
:aimkiss: -> :-*
:aimmad: -> >:O
:aimx: -> :-x
:aimdumb: -> :-P
:aimwink: -> ;-)
:aimmeh: -> =-/
:aimsmile: -> :-)
Better yet, you could add new smilies for each of them so that it won't come across looking completely dumb when people used the old codes for the smilies.
But yes, I agree completely with this suggestion. PRAISE BE TO GOD or whoever
Add The Pimp first, then we'll talk.
Hmmm.. NO! :aimsun:
I've got all the important ones rememberd. And that is :aimsun:. Nothing else is needed.
We've had so many topics about changing/fixing the smilies that just trailed off that I'm tempted to just do it myself when no ones looking.
Heck, I deleted the "cool" smoking smiley quite some time ago and no one seemed to notice. :aimsun:
AIM Smilies should die :D They're also octagonal.
OCTAGONS ARE SUPERIOR. Apart from the rhombus, the rhombus is FAR SUPERIOR. But they don't make rhombus-shaped-smileys. =/
Anyways, I actually agree on this one. It would make quotes from AIM much, much better. And I agree with Manny about th-
...
...I agree with Manny. Oh, God, that sounds so wrong. Excuse me, I'm going to go and seek help or something.
-e keeping of the old code aswell as the placing of the new codes.
Yep, I agree with Proto as well. AIM smileys are the best and changing this would be much easier, and I believe it wouldn't be too much work to change this, so why not? And pimp smiley should be added.:cool: Also in pimp smiley's case, why not? Nobody uses for example that silly Chef smiley ( and many others) and here are people who actually wants the pimp smiley and are willing to use it. :Pimp: < --- *sigh* :cry: :(
I've never used them the way Proto wants them, even on AIM; I just click on them there. So, no. :aimmad:
The only real problem here is that :aimsad: actually shows the crying emoticon () instead of the frowning one (
I'm with Fred.
This idea sucked when Aaron suggested it to me months ago and it sucks now. :aimsun:
Can they even make smiles without the ::? @_@
The reason I back it all is because when people copy/paste quotes from AIM, they get the smilies that Aaron showed, and it would be nice to have the smilies that fit to it quoted in.
EDIT: Kane: Yes.
or we could just disable all smilies besides :D
And :p
Someone tell me what the shorthand for the aimcry one should be in AIM, and I'll consider adding them, provided they don't clash with anything or have a possibility of clashing with future replacement code thingys :p
Fear teh polymorphic smily! :)
Simply look at it and it's smiling! Select it and it's sad! Here, my friends, we have true genius!
:'( is for aimcry
I guess I'll consider adding them now :p
that doesn't work for people who use good browers though, but yes, you do make a valid point ;)Quote:

anyway, thanks cl_out for at least considering these noble additions :-D
Kudos to clout. It'll really makes things easier. I also hate typing all that :blahblahblah: when I wanna make a smiley. Maybe you dcould add some in that quick smiley box? AT LEAST THE PIMP!
Yeah!Quote:

Or I could continue to waste FG's bandwidth.
I was finally getting used to the :blahblah: too. :p
Its fine by me if someone changes them though. Its not like its hard.
Do whatever you want. I don't really use smilies much. I usually disable them when I want to use emoticons, because text smilies r teh über-1337 masters. :D?
You shouldn't have to remove the :blahblahblah: ones. Just add the AIM-text stuffs. Y'no.
:dot:
:blahblahblah: is now my favorite smiley
darn, :blahblahblah: is too long for a smilie shorthand :p
you could easily fix that by going into phpmyadmin, you know.
I don't have access to that :p
Don't make :blahblahb a smiley. >=/
well, then make bleys do it ;)Quote:

in all seriousness, :blahblah: > :blah blahb as a smiley code
Screw it, I'm sick of spending more time monkeying with smileys that don't bloody matter than I do on critical board upgrades.
EDIT: Besides, my first EoFF priority is getting image uploading to work for the photo album, which is making my freaking head spin.
Ah, well, since the main intention of this thread has been fulfil, no more smilies for now. 8-) *closes*

We'll make the smiley crap all perfect and wonderful for everyone when someone has the time and energy.
