I think we should delete these emoticons, because no one ever uses them, and they waste bandwidths for no reason. That and they're just pointless: Exclamation Question Idea Arrow
EDIT: Well, I was looking through my old emoticons and I found that I have this: , instead of this: Idea

I also think we need to get rid of the white in these ones: Smile Confused Mad. I fixed the confused one: I also fixed the others, but I changed their appearance. I don't know if you'll like them or not, but I'm just throwing them out there just in case.

And I found that the right eye is messed up in awesome. I fixed it, so the eyes are normal:

First of all, the *bling!* emoticon should certainly not be deleted. It's actually quite often used in other forums, mainly Black Market and Star Carnival, along with other Digibutter currency involving topics. The *bling!* is Digibutter's currency.

Second, I have already posted about the other four smilies. Here's a copy-pasted version.

"And also, to the Exclamation , Question , Idea , and Arrow , it is true that they are very uncommonly used. There is the possibility that Francis could delete them, but smilies barely use bandwidth unless mass-spammed, and they are oft-used in the first place. There is the possibility of moving them to 'View more Emoticons,' in order to make more room for the more often used smilies, like Franis , or hidden smilies which I have suggested before, in which they do not show up on basic smilies list and will only be accessible by typing in the specific code. That would keep the already used instances of old posts using those smilies in place, while keeping them out of the list and still being able to be used by typing in the easily remembered code. "

Third, I agree that the white space needs to be changed, as it has bothered me for a long time. You certainly did not fix any of those smilies, though. You took the face and outline of it and pasted it on a completely different base. The one you have chosen are completely different to the original ones, and will look much more awkward in comparison to the other smilies.

To your other smilies in which you suggest to substitute, I personally don't find them as good as the current ones, even without taking in consideration for the base and white outlines for the original. However, if anything, the suggestions for changing and adding smilies would be more appropriately taken in for your Emoticon Contest Feedback topic, which you had just created.

I fixed Confused, which I said, but as I also said, the others I made differently. I just posted them incase people thought they were better. I wasn't suggesting to change those two, I just posted them in case people were getting lazy. The other one just fixed the eye in awesome. The one for Idea was just like the others, just in case.

I know, I agree that they don't fit, I was just posting them for the reasons above.

As for the coin, that's fine.

You really didn't fix Confused as the coloration scheme is completely different from the original. If anything, you want to make the smilies transparent, you should copy and paste the untransparentized emoticon into a document and proceed to transparentize the white space instead of changing the smiley base to something that doesn't fit with the others.

On the subject of the others, I guess Francis could decide to implement them if he felt that they were better than the current ones. If anything, though, you should change the bases to the widely accepted Digibutter smiley base to make them fit with the others created.

No. The color scheme is the same. Compare them. I remember the first emoticon I made was that one, and I just took the old Confused, erased the face, and redrew it. Seriously, look again. Confused

EDIT: Oh, wow, you're right. Well, I'm not going to change the little tiny patch of slightly altered color, because it really doesn't make a difference. They're almost the same.

I wasn't trying to get them to fit. I was saying IF they wanted them. I know they're different, and I know most people probably won't like them, but it's just an IF.
