New Smilies are UGLY

(1/3) > >>

RayB:
Saint,
I'm starting to see new buttons showing up and it looks good. Keep it up....

But the smilies... Who modified that? Looks like someone just took the old ones, and used a PhotoShop BLUR effect on it. The end results are.... well what would you expect--BLURRY!

Give us the old ones back, or have someone create REAL new ones, not just a half-assed blur filter. There's nothing wrong with "pixel" artwork. No need to smooth them. On the other hand, if you insist on wanting "smoothed" (anti-aliased) smilies, let me do it. I used to do pixel style art for video games and I was an expert at anti-aliasing by hand (as well as an expert at making stuff look three dimensional, but still drawn by hand in pixels).

JoyMonkey:
they look kinda the same as the old ones, but bolder somehow.

This is the default set included with the new software. I agree, I liked the old set better. I'll see if I can include them as an option to the user profile for selection.

What you can do is rape them from the old set, rename them to whatever the new ones are, and place the old ones in their place.

Way ahead of you Peale ;) The classic set is back and ready. You can change this in the forum profile:


Modify Profile -> Look and Layout Preferences -> Current Smiley Set -> classic

Will enable the old icons
