So far, there's just this guy: :Cartler:

I still want a Mussolini, for those occasions when Godwinning isn't indicated.

I need a :watering: smilie - std yellow guy watering garden, or pot plant. Depending on the artist, grass could grow, flowers could grow, triffids could grow and eat him; a Beanstalk(TM) could grow.

Well, we've got this guy :garden:

. I made him back before my breakthrough, though, so maybe I can spruce him up.

ETA: :eskimo:

Crumb beat you to it, 54. :cointoss:

is cute but doesn't turn up in a search for 'water'. If only there were a way to fix that.

Crumb · #58 11-29-2005, 09:07 PM

I don't think it can be done.

viscousmemories · #59 11-29-2005, 09:10 PM

I'll look in to a hack.

livius drusus · #60 11-29-2005, 09:25 PM

I

at you all.

Crumb · #61 11-29-2005, 09:51 PM

Well since I am a rather unprolific smiley maker I will put some of my ideas out here for any smiliesmiths paying attention.

One was the previously mentioned act of arson on the :ff:

logo. I tried my hand at this originally but was unable to make anything of it. (OK, so it was laziness. Sue me.) My original vision was a smiley that poors gasoline on :ff:

and then throws a lit match on it.

Another I had an idead for was a 'manly hug'. Two gentleman smilies that however uncomfortablely manage to express there (purely nonsexual) love for one another with a pat on the back hug followed quickly by paranoid furtive glances and maybe some coughing.

Maybe a more talented arteest wants to take a crack at one.

Good idea.

That's gay. The entire membership of the board, and all the slurp spiders and human guests, wonder* if you are not in fact uncomfortable and paranoid, not to mention coughing.

huh? I didn't get that last bit. :susp2:

(Wasn't there a "gone over my head" smiley somewhere?)

Sock Puppet · #64 11-30-2005, 09:15 PM

<--- for when it's over your own head

or

:lost:

<--- for pointing & laughing at same happening to someone else

I was sorta lost by that last bit, too.

Crumb · #65 11-30-2005, 10:50 PM

Why don't they come up when I search for 'head' or 'over'? :ffstare:

Sock Puppet · #66 11-30-2005, 11:08 PM

I got the second one on a search for 'head'. I think they both come up for 'lost'.

Of course, I already knew they were there to begin with, having been the one who asked for them.

Crumb · #67 11-30-2005, 11:24 PM

I knew they were there. I just couldn't find them.

livius drusus · #68 12-01-2005, 12:35 AM

Sorry, y'all. I have this problem with keywording: the arcane words come easy but the most basic ones totally escape me. Fixed now. :dopey:

I have noticed that there have been no new smilie updates. Where are the new smilies?

Sock Puppet · #71 12-01-2005, 09:27 PM

We've got Simpsons smilies, and Tick smilies (I had no idea!); would it be possible to get a Hank Hill as well? I've got some more word-balloon ideas. :plotting:

Was I supposed to answer this? Just ignore the lyrics quotes. You know what slurp spiders are, don't you?

I was watching and commenting on the smiley championship polls and got sucked in by the Roman motif around here, thinking it'd be a great to have clickable thumbs up/thumbs down icons on our polls. Then, of course, that took my mind to the gladitorial competitions in ancient Rome....and I, of course, started looking for a gladiator smiley...

No go...

Is there one, trapped in arcane key words?

Or, is this forum lacking entirely in gladiator smilies? There should be at least the basic two: short sword with arm shield and trident and net.

What gives?

If we don't have then we need :glad8er1: and :glad8er2:

Don't you mean :glad8or1: and :glad8or2: ?

Actually, my first thought was :glad8her:, but I thought that hit a little close to home. That's where the "e" came from, anyway....

Now that I look at it again, I'd say that we could do with :glad8r1: and :glad8r2: and so on up to :glad8r99:.
