Which do you prefer? 1) The Default: 2) The Original: I believe I have discovered the secret hide-out location of the Old, original and still the best "normal" smilie. Can we replace the default with the original? Please?
I, of course, voted the original, but let it be known that this one¹ is better =Þ, aka =þ ¹the one on the right's better, but they're both the same.
The default is the new, more realistic smiley. It shows the true facial expressions. The stupid, inferior smileys of yore were rightfully replaced.
the old one was better. the smile is the central point of the image - there are no teeth or eyebrows to distract from it. And smiling is the point of a smiley, isn't it? the expression that it portrays is innocent and fun. the new one looks a little sheepish.
The old one would be better than the new one if it was smoothed out a little so that it looked less like a 3 year old's scrawl. Currently the default one looks more professionally done, even if a bit 'grinny'.
I like the new. They're so much more expressive <-- This little guy just got kicked in the knackers, for example. <-- Poor mite who just wet his pants. :roll: <-- nearby friend of mr wet pants
Some new smileys are fun like _ 8) :cry: but the ordinary smiley : ) and laugh : D are better the old way.
:lol: <------ This one is the one that did the kicking I agree, the new ones are better in my book. acman: :hump: Of course, some of the original ones can't be beat.
