are all cool but i have no doubts
i confirm my vote for that with transparent BG

It seems like you've already done the work, nonetheless I would point out that all of the icon images are available in the GIMP source code tree:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/tree/themes/Default/images

Thanks, saulgoode. I at least have a source for other icons now.

Was trying to find a folder icon for gnome/F12 a few days ago and I'm sure I'll want others too.

These are all of the transparent icons. The zip file is attached.

You all may want to check through them and see if you think any can be eliminated.

I think I like the transparent ones best because people use different themes so are used to different background colours.

Give me some time for smileys. I didn't have the time for it yet, but wanted to start a thread about it. I think there are a lot of "basic" ones missing. And other basic smileys should be to the left of the and not in the view more smileys pop up.

Also instead of you can fit 3 or 4 smaller smileys there.

I'll have a look for the smileys I think are missing. One of them is a simple but there are better ones for that. Just need to go through smiley websites.

No don't remove the cool smileys. Just put the in the pop up and most used ones on top.

I noticed the double smiley, that's why I stopped. I started to make mistakes.

Also needs to stay on top. too.

Y'all did see the two more pages of emoticons listed under the "View More Smilies" link, right?

Yes of course. Where do you think I got and from?

PC, I was just saying that should be moved up because it's a greeting smiley.

This is a good sleeping smiley for on the reply field page since it's small.

And this one is better then the really sad I suggested. And I see the praise is already in there too.

I'm just suggesting to use the room next to reply field best as you can with the most used smileys there and the lesser used smileys in the pop up.

Looks like we have a winner.

The transparent icons have it!!

Has anyone looked at the transparent pack I uploaded to see if there are any that can be eliminated? Here is what is in the zipped file. 61 icons.

They are tiny and don't take up much room. If I were to eliminate any, it would be just that last one of the b/w color swatch.

I scaled that large one to be the same height as the rest of them. It's wider but I can't get around that.

The zip file has the scaled one in it or you can download the single one.

thx fencepost i downloaded those! =)

Keep in mind that although it's not ideal, we could easily have all the tool icons uploaded to some other site and use the image tags to show them in posts.

I know it's not practical, but it's functional.


But I love the idea of having the GIMP tool icons included in the smiley set, and the transparent set certainly has my vote.

So are we going to add the new icons soon? =)

Yes, I'm going to be working on the Gimp Chat "To-Do" list over the next week or so and this is one of the things that needs to be done. It's a good idea.

I also want to revamp the existing emoticon list we have here now, maybe dump a few and add a few.

But hey Rod, you never use the built-in emoticons anyway. <|:=)

I'm thinking of using them individually in my tutorials!

Okay, two things.
1) Photo, you just gave me a couple great ideas.
2)We should hold contest for new user-made emoticons. For instance the best 3 get included in the default set and the next best 5 are included in the "More Smiles" set.

Contest or otherwise, any good emoticons can be submitted for consideration. If they are good and fit with the site theme, we can add them or replace existing smilies.

I've added the Gimp Tool Icons as emoticons.

You can quickly access them from posting screen by clicking the new link labeled (GIMP Tool Icons) located just under "View more smilies" link.



These should come in handy.

*gasp*

Whoo! I'm going to an on lots of that's so cool it's like I'm . Let's just hope it's not so bad it makes me and I have to toss it in the .
