Re: New emoticons.

They really fit the site better than the others.

And I've started to like the new mini/tongue more than the old one.

Re: New emoticons.

They're way better than the old ones. I love the mini/yes one.

Re: New emoticons.

I love the mini/XD one the most.

Re: New emoticons.

Hooray! I love the new emotes, although I wish we could use the :boom: one... http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p84/UberSocks/69.gif and my facemelt: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p84/UberSocks/25-2.gif It could be used for when mini/eek and mini/jaw just doesn't cover it...

Re: New emoticons.

Correct.  I'm sort of waiting and hoping somebody will make a better extension for emoticon support.

BTW, Smeagol,

Does the BiM admin panel look like the PunBB admin panel when you administrate the forums?

Re: New emoticons.

As far as I know.  We're running PunBB, after all.  It's totally separate from the admin controls for the rest of the site.

Oh okay. Makes sense.

Re: New emoticons.

How do you even make these emoticons? Like, what program? (Please, don't tell me AE mini/rolleyes mini/lol )

Re: New emoticons.

I made mine in ms paint, then made them into gifs in gimp. Both are free.

Re: New emoticons.

Got both...how do you make 'em into gifs?

Re: New emoticons.

I use Adobe Fireworks CS3 - my first choice for pixel art and animated GIFs.

Re: New emoticons.

Here's one I made, it kind of sucks... http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv289/Frenetic_Travis/emote1.jpg

Re: New emoticons.

save the image in .png format, so the resolution is higher.

there is a tutorial on .gifs in gimp, but instead of drawing the images, put the pre-made .png images into seperate layers. Hope that helps.

We have? I personally am still very unhappy with him. If he had the same eyes and mouth as the old Mr. Green, however, I would be a much happier man.
