request old-style Smilies

[CapnZapp]

I personally find the new smileys looking a bit daft, which makes most of them inappropriate for the impression I generally use them for.

Is it possible to offer a second set of smileys that aren't cross-eyed?

Regards,
CapnZapp (sadly finding himself having to turn on "disable smileys" for now)

Erm, where do you set the option to have disabled smilies as default...?

Now I'm confused - what is this "automerge doubleposts"? Can't I post more than once in a row?

The new smilies look incredibly faded against the background. I don't like them at all. However, the older ones were too limited, IMO, but the new ones are barely visible.

I have to say that I much prefer the new smilies, I found the old ones almost indistinguishable and lacking in personality.

New smilies FTW!

(although I'm sorry that you don't like them so much)

I'm using new smilies less, because IMHO they do look ... goofy. Or otherwise inappropriate.

The "angel" one looks like the old

Hoping I'll get used to them. Otherwise, I'll just stop using them, which is fine.

Ya rly.

Personally, I reckon the default VBulletin smileys work quite well.

Don't you dare criticize my new smilies.
I put a lot of effort into them.
Not to mention a lot of thought.
I'm shocked you don't like them...
And a bit confused besides.
This is embarassing.
Unlike the old set, these smilies match well with each other.
I like them, so nyah...
I think they're cool.
So they are definitely here to stay.

I archived all the old smilies for posterity. If you want to use them just download this file.

Copy and paste the image code and you're golden.

Hmmm... I like the new smileys. Nothing really wrong with them for me (though I could say the same about the old smileys).

Cheers, LT.

My favourite smiley is always this one:
But I am not happy with its new look.

The rest is fine by me. (Though I still have to learn these ones - it was easier when they were in the smiley list, but the smiley list looked goofy with them...)

I agree. The new smiley actually conveys a sense of horror, fr'instance (although I laugh every time that I see it).
