I have read numerous complaints around the boards about the lack of certain smilies we all knew and loved at CC, especially the infamous thumbs up. Now believe me, I miss this as much as you all do, but the reason they're not here is that I haven't been able to find them (at least not yet), or at least find similiar ones that work alright here. It's difficult just making one too, since those tend to end up with a white box around it or at least a grainy white border (like some of the culture icons have).
So, I'm calling out for help. If you find a good thumbs up smiley somewhere, or another smiley you really want here, let me know and I'll be very happy to add it. Hopefully you'll have better luck than I have.

How about the thumbs up that is selectable as a post icon? (https://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Flotrtcgdb.com%2Fforums%2FThemes%2Fdefault%2Fimages%2Fpost%2Fthumbup.gif&hash=903bac0ae398e133e3d5e72fda109a7a4b6450a6)

that would work well.
the GP one is the most vexing for me.
-
...
I am so stupid. I never even noticed that until now.
Okay, :up: has been added. I tried to flip it and make a thumbs down as well, but since the only graphics program I have here is Paint (uuuugh), it's putting one of those white boxes around it. If someone wants to take the :up: and make a thumbs down, that would be swell.
Now to find a GP icon and some others...like a chin rubbing one! I miss that.
-
And the head-slapping d'oh, and the one that looks nervous in all directions.
:hey:

Again, if you find them somewhere, let me know, but the time I've been able to devote to scouring the World Wide Interweb hasn't uncovered them yet.

Don't look now... but there is also a thumbs-down post icon. :mrgreen:
-
Want the clapping one!
-
Yes! The clapping one! And the blushing smilie too! :mrgreen:
-
And the blushing smilie too! :mrgreen:
Now i wonder why you'd want that one :hey:
-
How do I keep missing these things?! Grah!
Alright, now we have thumbs up AND thumbs down. I'll look for the others people have mentioned when I have the time...though Maiden, we DO have a blushing one right now: :-[

Ninja Smiley!

...might need re-sized, though, if anyone knows how to do that.
-
Added!
What I'd really like is to go back to smilies similiar to the ninja, actually...slightly larger ones with eyes, replacing most of the current "regular" ones with their bigger cousins. That's a project for another day, though....

I went ahead and remade the twilight icons from scratch, seeing that we might not get the CC versions back soon:

Included a blank in case anyone wants to give the text a try; Photoshop isn't too great with small font sizes. I also have a 11px version (this is 12 px) in case there's trouble with centering.
If these aren't adequate I can muddle around some more (must've gone through 20+ variations by now... this has the background duplicated 5 times, with a black overlay at 20% opacity). I think the text is clearer than the ones we currently have, though.

?
I have this one among the special characters on my computer. I also have 1 to 9 but for some reason they don't want to paste into firefox. Thought I'd post it in case it might be useful.

I see a question mark. ???
The font I used was ITC Garamond. Should it be something else?
-
I see a question mark as well...
I have 1 to 10 circled in black, but they don't seem to want to appear.

Actually I've been wondering how Decipher did them in their PDF files. Ah... so crisp! *drools*
-
I can put mine them into pdf files. But they're not images, they're text.

I didn't know that was a blushing smilie! :-[ I think I've used it as a sad face, lol.
-
Hey yeah i didnt realise too, thought that little dude was upset!

Hmmm...not showing up here, but that might be because of the office blockers. :evil: I'll check back when I get home.

The images? It's not a case of the Emperor's new clothes, honest! (https://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi31.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fc366%2Faspect05%2Fshaking.gif&hash=433240cdb1bf0ed35e467c34bc16caeb9f8c7021) ;)
BTW, here's the CC thumbs-up icon (which I'd saved previously): (https://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi31.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fc366%2Faspect05%2Fthumbsup.gif&hash=11d7e314266fbd6ef7c2faab4457fab37e88fd48). I don't remember how thumbs-down looked so here are two versions: (https://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi31.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fc366%2Faspect05%2Fthumbsdown_r.gif&hash=227ae8ac18bcd3d6d2aeb76fe72cc2cedea11e2d) (https://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi31.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fc366%2Faspect05%2Fthumbsdown_l.gif&hash=ae897375979cbc6ba46ccb32468acb13d57ec391). Just in case there's still interest.
-
Didn't the thumbs down show the back of the hand, not the fingers?
And yeah, if anyone else wants to switch twilight icons, I think ES's are much clearer than mine.
...And what the heck is this blue one supposed to be?

Alright, I've added the improved twilight icons and the CC thumbs. Thanks, ES! :up: Have some gold. ;D
-
Haha, well if the DC'ers run into problems
they'd probably get someone else to do it it's back to work I go. Not sure if it's just me but I'm still seeing the old twilight icons after clearing my cache (or is there a separate tag?). The thumbs look fine. :up:
@AD: That's the shaking in fear/nervousness icon. Or it's been a 6-hour car trip without a rest stop in sight. ;)
