On the whole, I find the number of emoticons for this board well above satisfactory, but it's just struck me that we're missing a rather important symbol... given the general theme of this site, it simply doesn't feel right to be missing one of Wonder Woman when we've got a smiley representing Silver Surfer, of all characters.
And it's not like WW emoticons don't exist out there. Heck, this site has a perfectly decent one (note how it shares so many of its other superhero emoticons with ours). Would it be possible to import theirs over to this board?
Anyone else who cares about this - thoughts?
A Wonder Woman emoticon for the board?

I totally agree with you. There is not enough superhero/superheroine emoticons on this forum. I say we form some sort of boycott/strike till our demands are met.
Some emoticons in theme can be gathered from

Here's a quickie!

(the gif doesn't have the thin border around it, this forum's code is drawing that.)
Edit: removed prior version, and uploaded this one, which will look better on dark backgrounds...

How do you "make" smilies, come to think of it? Do you just take a tiny image and save it as a .gif? I have some ideas of my own...

Basically yes, take an image, open it in whatever you use, eg gimp or photoshop, give it a tranparent background if needed. Also there may be a size limit imposed by phpbb boards.Omega Woman wrote:How do you "make" smilies, come to think of it? Do you just take a tiny image and save it as a .gif?

In that case, could you please take this icon and do the same with it? Nothing against Lynda's head, but it seems a tad... unwieldy.

Nothing needs to be done with the ww.png image you posted. It already has transparency most browsers will display correctly (old IE browsers don't display png transparency).Omega Woman wrote:In that case, could you please take this icon and do the same with it?

I still need to tweak the wwlynda.gif I made. Looks fine on light background, but has a non-smooth halo on dark background.MightyHypnotic @hyponlinemedia wrote:Both look great! I'll add them

So, my .png is basically good to go for the board's emoticon folder?
Sweet.
Sweet.
So... have the icons been added, or what? I still can't find them when I get ready to make a post.

tweaked the wwlynda gif I did before. Should look better on dark backgrounds.

Heh. I was just thinking about asking about this yesterday...
These are great, MH. Thanks a ton!
(BTW, any chance of one for WW's logo? It'd make a neat scene divider for stories...)

The spinning lassoo WW is great, but is there any chance you could move it from the first page of Smilies? It's really distracting to have that at the side of the screen while typing a post.
