We need an evil smiley!

Considering all the rat bastardy DMing we have around here, can we get an evil DM grin smiley?

Fifthed, if such a thing is possible. I've been evil forever, but the smileys have never quite captured my evil correctly...

Yep. I'm guessing NKL has set up their server to ignore requests for images from other servers, so as to not leech bandwidth.

That said, if it's OK with NKL I wouldn't mind if ENWorld copied most of the smilies over.

Yep, NKL has blocked hotlinking. Maybe they could allow hotlinking from ENWorld, though.

I made some times ago an smilie from the mad and biggrin ones here. Not especially wonderful, though. I'm not an artist.

I'd consider adding an evil smiley if I can delete the "rolling eyes" icon! Lordy, that thing causes arguments.

We're not going to add a whole bunch of smilies, though. Both Morrus and I feel that doing so tends to muddle the "wheat to chaff" ratio on boards, so it's something we'll try to avoid here.

how about we replace the eye rolling smile with one that is both evil and eye rolling?

And you call yourself a rat bastard...

Sure, get rid of the rolling eyes, but look at that smiley list! It's not even complete! It has that one empty spot, just dying to be filled with an evil smiley!

I like the rollseyes smiley, but then I tend to use it in a humorous way rather than a mean way.

But man! There's that lower right corner begging to be filled with an evil smiley...

I'd think these two guys could go no problem (or just turn the mad one's mouth over so it's a evil grin) I like :rolleyes: but I'm sort of a sarcastic guy to start with. Having a huge set like at NKL would just people. I'm pretty with the ones we have now. (unless somebody wants to add a I'm with stupid one).
