new emoticons (smileys)

123 replies

Tech2 has kindly put together an extended set of emoticons (smileys) that you can use in your messages. The instructions on how to put them in are next to the "add a message" box on each mumsnet thread.

Cheers,
Tech

was designed to look cheekier

and are the same as the old ones

Forget Devil horns Soupy. You need an emoticon with a green tail when you are being the 'Old Dragon'...

Gingerbear · 06/06/2004 23:12

anyone else thinks this one looks like a blow-up doll??

spacemonkey · 06/06/2004 23:20

could double up as the lust one then

carla · 06/06/2004 23:33

Gingerbear, what unearthly circles have you been mixing in darling?

Gingerbear · 06/06/2004 23:41

Carla,

carla · 06/06/2004 23:57

Bogwoppit · 07/06/2004 00:11

carla · 07/06/2004 00:14

Bogwoppit,

Did you really not notice those stragglers 'neath new sad's eyebrows? Really ... I worry for you .

Toothache · 07/06/2004 09:04

I've been online for 30 mins now and that's me just noticed!!!

Fantastic stuff though tech. Especially the angry one!

Fio2 · 07/06/2004 09:12

do the old ones work?

Fio2 · 07/06/2004 09:12

yes they do!

Ixel · 07/06/2004 14:36

. I only had one day of not looking at mn, and all this excitement happens in my absence. That'll teach me for having a life. . Hope this works now.

karen99 · 16/06/2004 09:12

I miss the old wink .....

Fio2 · 16/06/2004 09:19

has anyone put the curser over the smilies so you get blue over the top of them? They look really weird

karen99 · 16/06/2004 09:26

some even a bit possessed!

Can we have the old wink back? pretty please?

SoupDragon · 16/06/2004 09:26

Has anyone else noticed that the new smileys are higher than the old ones?

You can get a little line of bouncing smileys...

karen99 · 16/06/2004 09:27

yeh, had noticed that as it makes the line of text subscript in a way..

karen99 · 16/06/2004 09:28

that must have taken forever soupy!

Fio2 · 16/06/2004 09:32

lol soupy!

Karen the old winker still works

SoupDragon · 16/06/2004 09:34

Karen, it doesn't take long with good old copy and paste

I prefer the old wink too BTW. The new one is a bit of a leer.

karen99 · 20/06/2004 16:25

So do we get to keep the old and the new? And if we move to just the new ones can we please change the wink?
