BC Furries needs more emoticons

[spuug]

Have people forgotten how to type emotions with ascii text?  ;-)

[Vanilla Skunk]

Well, we don't have a cat face. :3

Though, we could use a more furry set of icons...  These are a little simpsonsesque. :P

As for the typing old fashioned ascii emoticons...  That's all I'm doing, it triggers what's there.

Any suggestions for a good emoticon for :3 ?

It must be:
- not too flashy
- about the same size as the other emotes
- similar to what's already up there

[AMZinthos]

For instance a thumbs up would be nice

Cat faaace. :3

Well, we already have two icons that are out of place.  The birdy doesn't match, and neither does "Gay!"

On the other hand, the birdy is the only one there that is actually somewhat furry themed.

Furry.ca used the furcadia emoticons for their board.  I'm not saying we should do the same, but we should at least replace what we have with furry related emoticons.  :3 is just a regular furry smile, as mammal furs have the split lip.

If anyone can do pixel art we should have each emote be someone's fursona from the own forums lol. But yeah that wouldn't go well with the amount of people registered and new ones coming in but it did sound like a good idea at some point  :-3

That was quick, someone already found the cat face!

[AMZinthos]

Well its not hard to for cats to find their own faces  :thumbs: :-3

Of course you had to make it difficult and put a - in the middle of the :3  ...

[H u nn Y]

lol, well it makes sense, :3 is still cute as well.  :D Now that we have a  :thumbs: how about a thumbs down, hmm..?  ;) hehe  :-3

Oh wow, I was assuming the cat face would have affected posts including certain times (e.g. 11:30 AM) but the algorithm appears to be smart enough to avoid it.  I'll switch it over and see what happens.

Never mind, it's affected.  Switching back to :-3

Oh yeah, forgot about that.

What about Space Colin Three?

[Unition]

I was sitting here wondering who Space Colin was.

I tried putting a space in before and after, however any spaces before/after emoticons get truncated in the forums software, so it reverts back to ":3".

[Vanilla Skunk]

Heh.  phpBB allowed spaces... weird.

I guess SMF will only do it if you directly modify the database...

Oh well, thanks for trying.
