Love all the new smilies even if I can't access them .... I wish I could figure out the glitch in this darn computer :(

UberGeek is the one to thank for the smilies. He's the best. I showed him concept drawings (and I can't draw!) and he took it from there. He's a genius!

Ironic that you actually used a smilie in that post. :D It's because the sad smiley is now the square.

As I have had my share of problems with the wysiwyg stuff (my work iMac gets unhappy sometimes) I'll list the ways to type the smilies. Just take the spaces out, MS, and you can use the smilies all you want. :)

I love how all the smilies are not traditional looking and look like they've been sketched by a lounge artist. Love them.

(No apathetic smilie, though, oh well.) :)

Again, I love the square sad smilie. (Oh and not everyone who is sad is square. Some can't help it. We all have inner-Eeyores.)

;) These are tooo cute! I have no other word for them! Cute!!!

Ok...swanky!

The way I look at it, when you feel sad, you feel like a square peg in a round hole world. :)

Well, I was lounging when I first sketched them and UberGeek was waaaay lounging when he created them on the computer, so you're right!

And, we're not done with smilies by any means.:D

Tres chic, les nouveau emoticons.... ;)

I think the two kitty smilies are my favorites. They have that certain air of smartaleck-ness that's just right....

Thanks so much Jen!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I actually put them in a word doc so I don't have to come searching for the code :cheers:

Very swanky smilies -- I'm digging them! I like these: :mad: and :rolleyes: and :confused: .

They are very unique. Thanks to all responsible for your groovy creativity! :cool:
