New Arrivals

[livius drusus]

To innaugurate this nice new smiley birth announcements thread, please welcome Zikes' lovely, endearing, enchanting:

:oldlady:

Don't you just want to help her across the street?

[Zikes]

And hopefully many more on the way soon :D

[livius drusus]

Wow. You really know how to pleasure a woman an admin, don't you?

[viscousmemories]

:oldlady:
Awww. That's sweet. :)

[Zikes]

:giggle:

Well I'm usually not one to brag :clever:

[livius drusus]

And hopefully many more on the way soon :D

What's that you say? You're on a crazy, beautiful roll? Oh okay.

:sniffle: is among is, ladies and gents.

[Zikes]

lol hopefully I can keep it up :D

I'm actually kindof dreading the tiger and donkey ones, I've never been too good with non-conventional emotes :sweaty:

[livius drusus]

Don't worry about the tiger, Zikes. The donkey is far more important. godfry's been harassing me about it for ages. :)

In other news, you continue to kick total ass. If anyone needs proof of that, all they need to is glance at your latest:

:dealer:

[viscousmemories]

Cool dealer. Makes me want to buy some crack!

[livius drusus]

Or get more smilies, which, iirc, was the original inspiration for the request.

[Zikes]

Pssst..hey!

You lookin' for an emote?

Real cheap, good quality stuff here, no fakes.

:dealer:

Wait...you ain't a cop, are you? :eyebrow2:

:noid:

[livius drusus]

But wait, there's more! If you register now, we'll allow you the use of not one, but TWO more of Zikes' works of genius. His always handy :hm:, and my personal favorite, a phrase my very own father picked up in the good ol' US Army:

:pissrope:

[Skep]

:gbear:

[Zikes]

It should be noted I'm not altogether fond of the gray background, but it's hard to show piss on FF white :hm:

[livius drusus]

Yes, but, but... The stream! It goes up and down before climbing the rope! That's soooo irresistably adorable! I bet we'd totally miss that against the light background.

[Zikes]

lol ok, ok
I can make an exception this time, just for you livius :D

[viscousmemories]

It should be noted I'm not altogether fond of the gray background, but it's hard to show piss on FF white :hm:
I see what you mean, but FWIW I think you made a good choice. :yup:

[Zikes]

Thank you :D

To tell the truth it was a bit of an accident that it has that gray background. I've fallen into the habit of developing my emotes with a that color background since it's the same color as deviantART's, then switching to transparent before finishing it up. I showed livius the work in progress and told her I was trying to figure out how to make it show up on FF white and she insisted on keeping the gray :D

[Skep]

It should be noted I'm not altogether fond of the gray background, but it's hard to show piss on FF white :hm:
Could you make it transparent but give a 2 pixel shadow to the rope to contrast with the piss? :popcorn:

[Zikes]

It should be noted I'm not altogether fond of the gray background, but it's hard to show piss on FF white :hm:
Could you make it transparent but give a 2 pixel shadow to the rope to contrast with the piss? :popcorn:

Hmmm I just might be able to work that out :plotting:

[Skep]

OTOH, latinijral saw the urine well enough to get "piss off" at me after I made this post (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=69800#post69800). :D

[livius drusus]

From the dark recesses of Ymir's blood's imagination, please welcome :mori:, :spooksho: and :witcharc:.

[livius drusus]

A new :rolleyes: 'cause Skep made me and a new :? because I fucking hated that blue guy with the deformed trunky arm scratching his idiot head.

[livius drusus]

Just because: mazeguy's :mutter: and darkmoon's :loading:.

For lisarea: :bk:

For Ymir's blood: :keep:

For the whole bloody lot of us: :needvac:

[viscousmemories]

:laugh: darkmoon is a genius.

[Ymir's blood]

For Ymir's blood: :keep:
Oh, the irony.

/me never smiles

[livius drusus]

I know. That's why it's the perfect smiley for you. It just works on so many levels.

Best in class "must find an excuse to use": :hellokit: :sake: :map:

Who's :kokopele: ?

[livius drusus]

(do I recognise the style there? :D)

He he... I figured I didn't even have to announce the darkmoonage. She's become an idiom all of her own at this juncture.

Who's :kokopele: ?

He's a Hopi deity (fertility and music) also known as Kokopelli. I became familiar with him a few years back when a Puerto Rican friend of mine got a Kokopele tattoo on his arm. The history of the figure precedes even the Hopi, though, and KP is a popular character all over central America.

[Crumb]

Spoon? :kickscan:

[livius drusus]

I'm trying, Crumb. There's a lot of shite out there.

[Crumb]

Yes. You are the master at finding diamonds in the shite. :bow:

[Skep]

:velma: "Oh, behave!"
liv would have more time to look for cool shit if it weren't for you meddling kids. :D

Is this Velma, or Austin Powers? :scratch:

But :blossom: :buttercp: :bubbles2:: are you kidding? They're scary - undead versions. The mouths look like down-pointing noses. These girls are supposed to be cute. :nono:

Hey, I don't know from Powerpuff. I just thought their eyes were cute.

[Endora]

To innaugurate this nice new smiley birth announcements thread, please welcome Zikes' lovely, endearing, enchanting:

Don't you just want to help her across the street?


awww thats so sweet an old lady with a big penis......that is a penis shes knocking into right?

[viscousmemories]

They're scary - undead versions. The mouths look like down-pointing noses. These girls are supposed to be cute. :nono:
When I first saw them I just thought, "Aw cute, the Powerpuff Girls". I didn't look closely enough to notice what you did. You're right though, totally. :laugh:

[livius drusus]

Y'all are seriously going to have to kiss my ass for this one. Seriously. Made from scratch, ladies and gents, please welcome:

:ni:

[viscousmemories]

It's perfect.

[Crumb]

Made from scratch
Wow, liv. You are trully one of the greats now! That is fantastic!! :cartwheel: A work of smiley perfection.

[SharonDee]

Made from scratch, ladies and gents:wow: You didn't!

They're perfect. Just wonderful. As requested, here's your reward: :kssmyass:

[Crumb]

Oops I almost forgot. :kssmyass:

Thangyou, thangyouverymuch. :ovation:

Y'all are seriously going to have to kiss my ass for this one. Seriously. Made from scratch, ladies and gents, please welcome:

:ni:
Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say 'ni' at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress at this period in history.

[livius drusus]

Roger? Is that you? Long time no see. So how the hell are you? Still in the shrubbery game?

[Ymir's blood]

Are they bluish? They don't look bluish.

[Crumb]

Are they bluish? They don't look bluish.
Exactly.

The Freethought Forum is proud to welcome MisterIngo with his two latest works of genius.

:zombie:

:pianist:

They're gorgeous, MisterIngo. Thank you for letting us use them and all their adorable brethren and sisthren.

[viscousmemories]

Cool newbies. :1thumbup:

[Crumb]

:clap:

[MisterIngo]

Thank you very much! I'm glad they can be of use... (lol! That's me at the piano!)

ps! Liv - I wasn't naked when I was practising today as you'd want me to, but I was only wearing my shorts... It's very hot here right now... ;P

[livius drusus]

That's false advertising! Clearly the smiley pianist is naked as the day he was born. If he's you, then you should throw those shorts off in a display of solidarity. ;)

[Crumb]

:tmshockd:

[livius drusus]

Skep found us Comino's :rundog: and I scared :hugtroll: up last night.

[Crumb]

You scared it up, or you made it?

[livius drusus]

Oh, I kinda made it. The :troll: I found online and I just modified his expressions and added my purple guy.

[godfry n. glad]

Thank you for letting us use them and all their adorable brethren and sisthren.

Yes...uh...thank you.

Is that really how you spell that? "Sisthren"? I've always thought it was "sisteren". Sorta like "cistern".

[livius drusus]

To be entirely frank, I always thought that was a made up word. :giggle:

[livius drusus]

These guys (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=85792#post85792) and a :pinata: to keep the :disco: company.

[Ymir's blood]

... and I scared :hugtroll: up last night.
Don King! He would have been useful in the smilie competition.

Where's Starfire? Why no Starfire smiley? Do you have something against Starfire? :(

[livius drusus]

Just a shocking oversight now rectified. :starfire:

[MonCapitan2002]

Fantastic! :D Now I don't need to use this guy: :abitmuch:

[livius drusus]

Oh good, because I really didn't want to be this guy: :combust:

[wei yau]

Dunno how I missed the Teen Titans smileys. Let's just say I was out of town, okay?

But, I have to show these to Becca. She's a huge fan of the Titans and would love these smileys.

And while she has no appreciation for Monty Python, even she will recognize the artistry and skill that went into the "Knights of Ni" smiley.

[livius drusus]

Why thank you, eldar. Becca clearly has excellent taste.

[livius drusus]

In honor of our new member HighOnHotSauce, I dug up this spicey little gem :hotsauce: and appropos of nothing but total cuteness, :runbunny:.

[pescifish]

:tomato: !

[livius drusus]

I've actually had these guys for ages, but was finally motivated to set them up when my smiley replacement project left us at 1098 a minute before Skep posted this (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=91779#post91779).

[Ensign Steve]

I've actually had these guys for ages, but was finally motivated to set them up when my smiley replacement project left us at 1098 a minute before Skep posted this (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=91779#post91779).


Man, that sucked. I followed the link, forgot why I followed it, read the thread, and almost fell asleep. Once I clicked back here, I remembered my question.

1098 what?

[livius drusus]

Oh poop. That should have been 2098, i.e., the smilie count. :doh:

[MonCapitan2002]

Only 2,098 smilies? Pfft! You can do better than that measly number. :P

[livius drusus]

Already done. :nail: The count is back up to 2102 now, where it was when Skep posted about it and before I deleted four in a routine cleanup operation (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=91566#post91566) earlier today.

[MonCapitan2002]

I think 2,102 smilies is a rather paltry number. You can and should do better than that.

[livius drusus]

:glare:

[JoeP]

Can and will do better than that.

[livius drusus]

Hmph. Can't a girl get a little love for the :waffle: and :dancers: before y'all start cracking the whip again?

[Skep]

Yes. :glomp2:

[ceptimus]

We don't really have waffles in the UK. Nasty american invention the waffle.

:waffle: :unitedstates: :yuck:

[Skep]

Are you talking about real homemade in a :waffle: iron :waffle:s or are you talking about those shitty cardboard tasting frozen :waffle:s that you heat up in a toaster?

[viscousmemories]

Now wait just one cotton-pickin' minute there... those Eggo frozen :waffle:'s, which I only just recently discovered, are really quite good. They're nothing at all like real :waffle:'s, but they're damn tasty in their own right.

[ceptimus]

I've probably never tasted real :waffle:s The only ones I've ever been served have no taste and a horrible texture. I feel sure that the packaging they come in would be more tasty and nutritious.

No doubt real :waffle:s must be a thing of beauty and a joy forever. Americans couldn't be that stupid and continue to eat the sort of :waffle:s that are occasionally inflicted on us here in :unitedkingdom:

[viscousmemories]

I saw that you hadn't used an apostrophe between the :waffle: and the s, and my first thought was "what a silly billy, making the same mistake Skep made..." :doh:

[JoeP]

Hmph. Can't a girl get a little love for the :waffle: and :dancers: before y'all start cracking the whip again?
:love: :glomp2:
:fflove:

[Ensign Steve]

:dancers:

Beautiful. Just breathtaking. darkmoon is a genius. I can't imagine the amount of talent that goes into animating something as intricate as those dance moves, especially considering the anatomy of a smilie.

[ceptimus]

I have to agree. Those dancers are a brilliant piece of work.

[MonCapitan2002]

I tease, I tease. :D

[livius drusus]

At Sauron's request, I added :chief:, :worker: and :biker2: so we could have the full Village People complement.

[MonCapitan2002]

So now we are up to 2,106 smilies. Now the smilie collections is beginning to be slightly less pathetic in number.

I kid, I kid. :P

[livius drusus]

Phew... I was really sweating it there for a while. :giggle:

I uploaded :jollyrog: earlier tonight just so I could use in a post. How do like that for abuse of power?

[Ensign Steve]

As long as you're not doing it in the "Communicate with smilies ONLY" thread, I think it's fair game.

I think it is a squandering of your ability to abuse your power. Now banning me for laughs would be a genuine abuse of power.

[livius drusus]

I thought about it, MC, and decided uploading two weather themed smilies in honor of The Day After Tomorrow would result in more laughs than banning you. :D

:twister: :trstorm:

[Crumb]

What about some smilies that will help me try and explain to you that there is one more game to go to decide who is the state baseball champion and it occurs tonight and Cascade is in it in the smilies only thread? :innocent:

[livius drusus]

/me smiles.
I'll get right on that.

But just the other day, somebody was telling me they came by :sex:

[livius drusus]

People have filthy, filthy minds, davidm. Don't you pay them no mind, y'here. :pat:

The truth is smilies :hatch: and are adopted into their :redhoard: where they are loved and appreciated forever.

While that may be the case, it is still a pathetic display of power. Now issuing bannings for kicks is a genuine abuse of power. At least the fact that you do not ban people for kicks at least means that it is likely that you are not malicious.

Wow that is a terrific smiley. You are a great smiley hunter, liv. :clap:

[livius drusus]

You're way too kind. I am but a tiny gnat on the butts of giants, though. :curtsey:

[JoeP]

Are you sure your sources want to be called giants?

[livius drusus]

I didn't want to be called a gnat, but that's just the way it is.

[JoeP]

Gnats are cute.

Wouldn't you like to be a gnat about the size of a chicken? What sort of insects do you rejoice in, where you come from?

[MisterIngo]

Wow that is a terrific smiley. You are a great smiley hunter, liv. :clap:

AH! The thought of someone hunting my emotes! WAGH! It sounds terrible!

[livius drusus]

I would never hurt them, I swear, Ingo!

P.S. - Don't forget to add :flomp: to your siggy.

[Crumb]

AH! The thought of someone hunting my emotes! WAGH! It sounds terrible!
She doesn't kill them, just captures them and stick them in her zoo.

[livius drusus]

It's called a hoard. :narrow:

And I want a "remoticon"

lol! I just happen to like japanese school-girls... lol!

"Remoticon"? Tell me all about it!

[livius drusus]

Check it out, y'all. First Ingo modified :flomp: so the little orange guy reacts to the little clumsy fella. Then he made :splatflomp: just so we could all watch the clumsy fella get hurt.

Isn't that so sweet? :happycry:

[Crumb]

Ouch. Poor little guy.

[MisterIngo]

Check it out, y'all. First Ingo modified :flomp: so the little orange guy reacts to the little clumsy fella. Then he made :splatflomp: just so we could all watch the clumsy fella get hurt.

Isn't that so sweet? :happycry:

Did you notice I changed the walking to jumping? That's my style :D

[livius drusus]

I noticed now that you told me to. :giggle: That's a great choice, Ingo. It even explains why he went splat so much more bloodily than flomp.

[Skep]

Check it out, y'all. First Ingo modified :flomp: so the little orange guy reacts to the little clumsy fella. Then he made :splatflomp: just so we could all watch the clumsy fella get hurt.

Isn't that so sweet? :happycry:
It would be funny if the little orange guy did one of these numbers :rarrow: http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/5812/haha243133ls.gif after clumsy fella gets hurt.

It's a DarkMoon creation on the previous page. :remote:

A smiley riposte simply does not have the impact that a cavelierly executed banning would.

Just don't tell him where the eggs come from... :sex:

Shhhhhh! :glare:

Happy David, happy David... There's a good boy. :suckthumb:
The smiley seems screwy. The right side seems cut off.

[livius drusus]

Is not! He's just sort of looking off to the side so his features tend more rightward.

[Skep]

It is for some of us, liv. ceptimus mentioned that it's cut off for him too but I don't know what browser he uses. I use IE6. It looks like this :rarrow: http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/9973/samplebaby3dp.gif

[livius drusus]

Oooh... I had forgotten that. Poop. I have no idea what might be causing that. Have you noticed any of the other smilies looking cropped?

[Skep]

No, that's the only one I can think of, liv. FWIW, if I copy the image to my hard drive, it shows fine in various graphics programs. :shrug:

[livius drusus]

I just tried that myself and got the same result. The only I can think of that's different about that guy is how small he is. :confused:

[MonCapitan2002]

Is not! He's just sort of looking off to the side so his features tend more rightward.
Interesting. The smiley looks fine and dandy in Mozilla. I think it might be Internet Explorer. I just fired up the program (I am at home where I use Mozilla as my default web browser) and it looks cut off. I noticed the problem while using IE earlier at work as well. Methinks you have some troubleshooting to do.

[ceptimus]

I think it's a combination of a slightly corrupt .gif file, combined with a browser issue. The smiley is 17x16 pixels, but some of the 'standard' smilies like :P are only 15x15.

I'll examine the .gif when I get time, but based on my workload lately, that might be a week from now. :sigh:

Oh, and I use various browsers, but I was probably on IE6 when I mentioned it before.

[livius drusus]

I think you were right about the gif file, cep. I opened it, cropped the extra pixel off the edge, saved it under a different name and voila! :suckthumb:

It works for me now in IE. How about y'all?

[Skep]

Works for me. :)

[MisterIngo]

You cropped my emote? My cropping not good enough? lol! Only joking!

[livius drusus]

Hey, just be glad I didn't come whining to you to fix the IE rendering. :giggle:

[MisterIngo]

Hey, just be glad I didn't come whining to you to fix the IE rendering. :giggle:

I'd fix anything for you... Or at least I would try! :D

Damn. Have my mind control powers totally obliterated your brain, Joe, or are you just joshin' me as you are wont to do? :noid:

Oh, and speaking of Ingo's masterpieces, please welcome our new and exciting :d'oh:.

[JoeP]

[livius drusus]

Oh phew. I'm glad it's just my usual hapless gullibility at work, then. :d'oh:

[ceptimus]

The cropped version works great for me too. :yup:

[ceptimus]

:picture: suffers from the same 'cropping the rightmost pixel' bug here.

I'm running IE6 at the moment.

[livius drusus]

How about now? :)

Fixed!

That was quick work.

[Crumb]

I am not sure if I have told you how great you are yet this week liv. So just in case: you are the smiley queen! :livius:

[livius drusus]

You're way too nice to me, Crumb. I hope you realize you are never allowed to go on trips again. At least not without telling me first. :flomp:

And now, as an homage to the leafy sea dragon: :diver:

[Skep]

... and :whistles: just because we need one.
Yay! I've always had to use a non-native when I wanted to whistle. And this one is better than the first one you posted. :)

[livius drusus]

/me giggles.
I knew one of you eagle eyes would catch me. I had forgotten I had this one because I put it in my "needs work" folder (the eyes weren't right). Then I uploaded the inferior one and suddenly remembered the much better one waiting patiently for my touch.

[pescifish]

Oh, and :flutter:, in honor of pescifish's lovely parrot,She's gorgeous! :10:
If only my desktop computer was working and I had a color printer! I would print out a copy for Flutter who would shred it with glee in seconds flat.

Liv, we need a scuba diver swimming the other way. This is important.

Thanks Skep ... I've incorporated your image as a sign of appreciation. But that's the easy part; I could have done it. What I really want is for it to be loaded on the board. Only liv or vm can do that.

Actually I just like making liv do all the work... <img src="http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/images/smilies/Mind_Control_by_MisterIngo.gif" alt="Must. Load. Any. Smilie. Joe. Wants." title="Must. Load. Any. Smilie. Joe. Wants." />

How about :quagmire:, :psychoch: and Zikes' latest masterpiece :yay!: instead?

[Crumb]

:yay!:is very cool.
:psychoch: is funny.

But what the fuck is :quagmire: ? It looks like Betty Boop in a hoop skirt.

[livius drusus]

It's Quagmire from Family Guy. Ensign Steve's gonna shit a brick over him.

Do we have a brick-shitting smilie?

It ought to be cuter. That doesn't capture the inner beauty of the star-nose mole. It would be better if the nose was wriggling.

It is cute. This smilie must be loaded.

Thanks Joe... but let me make it's nose wiggle first :P

Cool, Legs.

If you're going to edit it, maybe you could make visible (long) claws on its front paws. But still in a cute way.

You're going to have to get vm to upload it. I will block on sight, just fyi. :shudder:

Hey liv, don't you think we need a pyramid to go with our :sphinx: ?

Dupes, I'm afraid. I put an s (for symbol) in front of everything. It's weird because in the beginning duplicate smileytext would just display the original one. At some point, we crossed some mysterious vB threshold and now dupes get all htmly and fucked up. :shrug:

You are very cool, liv. (Have I said that too much?) I think you are taking vB far beyond where its authors intended. :goodjob:
