On a totally unrelated note, we need to get a better -----> :shock:

It always looks to me like an asian guy with glasses. His mouth, to get perfect Effect, should be 'o' shaped.

Like this 8o...only, ya know, right side up.

Yes I agree...sometimes I wish that we had all of the smileys that the cgc board has...those guys have a bunch of good ones...

So is it something that you could add greg or how does it work? I dont really know anything about this board system. Could you just provide it with a bunch of smiley links somewhere in the setup and we would have access to them...is there a smiley module that you can add on to this board?
i know that I like that "frustrated/hair pulling one" from the cgc board and the "thinking" one. Maybe the one with the sign that says "funny post"...just curious...
I dont need a ton of smileys to represent everything that I could possibly say or convey all emtions...I just like a little variety..
Of course it could be said that limited smileys are a good thing. I think that probably 1/2 the post on the cgc board are just smileys and a quote of a post. Around here we kinda have to type out what we think and that leads to more discusion, I think...

So you are really just asking for improved smileys while I would like more smileys. Alright now that we have that taken care of.. :wink:
I normally use the :D I am also found of the :twisted: but not the :evil: hmmm...see I wish that we had the "thinking" smiley...I think that I would be very fond of that one...

Well, I'm not sure who "governs" the usage of smilies...
So, if I use some from other boards, would I be violating some software
usage agreements, or are the smilies just plugged-in anyway...
That is, the board itself is 'proprietary', but the smilies are already 'shared'.

What do you guys think? Should I 'just do it' and then ask for forgiveness
if there is a clarification in the future?

I know of a few 'out there' that could easily replace some that we have now.
