Why, oh why, do you like that rusty water called Coke?

Pretty much for that reason. It tates like rusty water.

Of course, I'm one of about three people who drinks Vanilla Coke in Australia.

At some point, tar baby's going to get hijacked. Just letting you know.

yeah, it looks really bad. The smilies are all animated gifs, and if anybody has the tools, skill, and time to make twak (and tar baby) look like the others, please go for it.

I've had a go at twak. It's a little crude and a bit rushed, so the animation may not be exactly the same, but...

Well, that didn't last long

(for future referrence - I had a comparison here between the old twak and the new one, but it became invalid once the old one was replaced)

Sorry to screw up the comparison, but it's so good I had to put it in there right away.

Nice job!

Hijacked into what?

I was basically going to make it into a tar baby - sort of egg-shaped.

I've had some more time, so I did the eyes one as well. It's not quite a tar baby, for the edges are not dark enough, but most of it is the right colour. It also doesn't have the tar baby mouth, but instead, like the old, has two big eyes.

I could do it, but I wouldn't have anything to do with it when I was done. I don't run this place.

Sure you would. You fix it, ship it off to Matt, and demand a 20% raise

And I'd give it to you, Clayton! You deserve at least 25%, which means we'll only give you 20%, in accordance with corporate policy worldwide.

How's this for a new smiley?



Edit: For what it's worth, with this post I'm number 15 on the posting stats. Number 1, here I come!

What is it?

It looks like some sort of giant, red face with a giant jaw.

It's the insane red smiley. It's also the first image I ever made in photoshop. It's also very, very disproportionate.

Ha, you are funny, Schik. But you are also very cool. However, sometimes you drive me crazy. But I still forgive you in the end, with the help of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

What the hell, here's some more cool ones.







Have fun guys!

Game on,

Hey - I'm gone a few days and a lot of new smilies are here to great me. Cool.

One exception:



Since I absolutely detest smilies that are more than twice the height of the text. They just make reading posts so much more difficult.

Yeah, we argued about that one, but it's so cool we just had to!

You'll be pleased to know that we found a smaller version of the jaw-dropping one:

If anyone wants to redo the blowup smiley with a smaller (but still as cool-looking) explosion I am sure that Schik will be happy to replace it.

I've noticed a one pixel white outline on some of the new ones. It's certainly not life-and-death, but if someone has nothing better to do at some point it would be nice...
