We need more smilies!

bigben2k · 01-13-2003, 09:25 PM

I've been going over a few other forums lately, and I have to say: I'd like to see more smilies here! I especially like the "dancing banana"!

Post your idea, and wish to see more smilies!

joemac · 01-13-2003, 09:35 PM

Here

mfpmax · 01-13-2003, 09:49 PM

Oh no...not more smilies...

Joe · 01-13-2003, 10:46 PM

Yeh more smiles.. while I am at it I will make the avatar 640x480, and give people the ability to post 1024x768 sized Sig's with full motion graphics telling everyone how important they are and what their lil computer is spec'd at... sounds likea great plan!

hehehe

ditto on what joemac said

MUHAHAHAHA!! MINI SMILEY DANCE!!!!

Brians256 · 01-14-2003, 12:02 AM

Joe! How can we properly discuss cooling without dancing bananas and such?! Next, you'll be telling us that we won't be able to add those attached WAV sound effects either. And I had my heart set on a sig with a fart WAV file.

bigben2k · 01-14-2003, 08:35 AM

I don't think we need bigger graphics: converting to jpg or gif usually does the trick.

OC had problems maintaining their forums up, because of high traffic, so they reduced the avatar size, and attached pics. I would expect no less here.

But I still want a dancing banana!

mfpmax · 01-14-2003, 12:07 PM

I saw the early dancing banananana and what it did to a friend...it wasn't even a smilie yet and he was posting it himself everywhere...

ITS A VIRUS, a PLAGUE, it should be exterminated and all infected should be sent to a hospital for immediate treatment...

With that said, where is my medication...

bigben2k · 01-14-2003, 12:21 PM

My banana!

Joe · 01-14-2003, 12:58 PM

it always fears me to see someone post "My banana"

g.l.amour · 01-14-2003, 12:59 PM

lol

indeed, thats exactly what we need

iroc409 · 01-17-2003, 02:04 AM

you appear to use the same software as this other non-computer forum i go to a lot... they have a buttload of smilies, including a band, a pimp, and a couple giving the finger. maybe it's available on this software?

You can install the smilies on almost any forum software...

its weather(sp) its or not its got any justification for it.

Especially...that banana:shrug:

bigben2k · 01-17-2003, 12:32 PM

Actually, there are a number of other customizations available, and plenty of resources for it:

See the Forum on Forum!

A neat one is the "skin" feature, used at OCAU.

Joe · 01-17-2003, 12:46 PM

hey ben for a while now I have been pondering the idea of different skins for the forums. they are hella easy to make up. but I havent been able to get a look I liked.

bigben2k · 01-17-2003, 01:03 PM

Maybe you should start with something for laptops: black background with orange lettering (for highest contrast).

Are many of us mobile?

mfpmax · 01-17-2003, 02:25 PM

Just make sure you have a "Classic Theme", cause when the Mustang forum I hung out on changed their main website, and their forum to match, I couldn't stand the theme...so I'd always have mine set on classic.

One theme was irriating on the eyes.

gogo · 01-17-2003, 04:28 PM

Just don't do Luna.

Joe · 01-17-2003, 04:31 PM

well it will be a while, I got enough on my plate as is. I also like the current looks of the forum.

iroc409 · 01-17-2003, 05:11 PM

i wish this board software were freeware, that would rox0rs. i'm too cheap for that, but this software totally kicks ass!

anyone had any experience with phpbb?

it's free! looks decent...

mfpmax · 01-17-2003, 11:11 PM

Yeah, phpBB is pretty good...

Don't go near Yabb or whatever it is...i'm on two forums that use it, don't like it at all.

Joe · 01-17-2003, 11:20 PM

pHpBB has gotten much better in recent vers, impresses me very much.. vBB is still the king of the hill though.

FRAGN'STIEN · 01-17-2003, 11:40 PM

The original bannanna................................

jtroutma · 01-19-2003, 02:29 AM

Fragn'stien: I would go CRAZY if I had to watch and listen to THAT bannana everytime I came here.

The other one is just fine
