Smileys You'd Like to See

I sometimes want more smileys like an exploding head smiley, an insane smiley , a smiley that cries big tears, the angelic smiley , an excited smiley (for when the new lens arrives) , one who waves , exuberance smileys , one who sweats in fear , a shocked smiley , your basic face-turning-red smiley , the love smiley . . .


Anybody else want more?

I don't know about you, but I find the available smileys unable to meet my needs. Does anyone else think we need a few more, and possibly replace a couple we have? This is, after all, a photographers' forum, which some of us consider a way to do art. No ordinary smileys should therefore suffice.

I mean, check out this forum's list, it's enough to give a forumite serious smiley envy. Also, a couple of the smiley's we have seem unusable. Like, "cool" isn't just a sunglassed smiley, his mouth is twisted in what looks like sarcasm. So where I want to say I'm being cool, I can't without giving off negative vibes. Not cool man. The "wink" isn't clearly friendly looking either.
High on my wish list would of course be the indispensable exploding head smiley(clearly for the Politics-Religion area), followed by an insane smiley , a smiley that cries big tears, the angelic smiley , an excited smiley (for when the new lens arrives) , one who waves , exuberance smileys , one who sweats in fear , a shocked smiley , your basic face-turning-red smiley , and last but not least, let's not forget the love smiley


Are there any on your wish list?
WOW,this should improve everyones photography and also give something else for the whingers to argue over and dissect to the Nth degree.Purrlease!!

Is there a thread for curmudgeons who hate smilies and wish they would disappear from the planet?

I'm a dismal failure at curmdgeonism, I spoil it by not passing up opportunities to enjoy, be happy, laugh, have a good time (all the anti-curmudeon-type stuff). But it wouild be a cruel world indeed if curmudgeons couldn't have their own unsmileys! Some suggestions to aid your crabbiness:

Sure, to be honest it isn't always easy to avoid the curmudgeonist mood

. . . to see what is possible versus what isn't, to view the world for an eye attuned to the positive rather than what's screwed up, to look for good in people over the bad, to maintain an open mind and heart over shutting out anything that isn't a selfish or egocentric gain
. . . and, the hardest part, to do all that without turning into a mush-brained sentimentalist.
