Using the LOTSG Smilies Folder


The problem of the ever-expanding smilies box has (we hope!) been solved. We've set up a dedicated Photobucket account for any further smilies, and hope that this'll be fairly simple to use.

Here's how it works. V-related smilies can be found here:
http://s93.photobucket.com/albums/l54/lotsgsmilies/Vmotes/

...and others here:
http://s93.photobucket.com/albums/l54/lotsgsmilies/YahooEmotes/

To use your chosen smiley, simply highlight the text in the lowest box beneath it; the one indicated with a red arrow, like so:

Image

...and then simply copy and paste this text into place in your post.

I hope that explains everything, but if anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to ask emoticon

Excellent idea emoticon emoticon

emoticon seeing the new ones against a white background reveals some rather unpretty pixel errors, I will fix them tomorrow.

Image Huzzah!

We hope this solution will be relatively painless for everyone. emoticon

To answer a question I anticipate - we didn't want to delete any of the existing smilies from the box (or rearrange them), because that would affect every post in which they've been used. Nor did we want to issue a cease-and-desist order on creation of all the new, wonderful emotes. So the Staff decided the best compromise we could imagine was having an offboard cache of emotes, much like Yahoo Messenger has "hidden" emotes.

All right, FSF (and anyone else), now that we have somewhere for them to live, create away! Image

Re: Using the LOTSG Smilies Folder


Well, I had considerated personalized emoticons with
the IMG tag, but that means we don´t have to use codes, we just insert them like images.

It is however a bit extra work but it´s ok. emoticon

Anyway, I´m not a genious in 2D graphic creation or manipulation, but I may try one or two. emoticon

Just one thing, we can add IMG tags from any image
host other thanh photobucket, say, imageshack or other´s, right? any reliable host will do the job.

That's right emoticon It's just that Photobucket has the advantage of supplying Runboard-ready image tags.

Re: Using the LOTSG Smilies Folder


after some experiences, photobucket is the simplest
and intuitive choice, of course.emoticon

other hosts need logings, tags are infested with publicity
and take forever to reload pages.

why do I act like I always know everythingh, jesus!

I need 3 of these to put me thinkingh straigth;

 emoticon emoticon emoticon
