I kinda like putz and Mazel Tov.
Ayyyy! Fonzie rode a Triumph! :wally
Just saw the other (improved?) smilies, makes me long for a text-only browser.
Oh for Roger’s sake, I can’t get the new smileys to show. I deleted all my internet files and cookies and crap.
I want to see how bad they are.
Ah, never mind. I read the About This Message Board thread that said they changed them back.
Screw the smilies…What I want to know is, how come everyone’s changing their names? SimonX is now PatriotX,…Machetero is…UnregisteredBull…and so on…Did I not get the memo? Is this some kind of wacky prank you’re all pulling on me?..How is my autonomic nervous system supposed to respond if, say, Duffer were to start calling himself “The Master Cylinder?”
I like the old smilies better. Those temporary new ones really stunk.
I love the new look, but I hate these old-fashioned smilies.
They look like they came from the Commodore 64.
Can’t we get some new hi-tech, fancy pastel emoticons?
NOOOO!!! I want listerine smilie back!!
OK, not for the purposes of expressing sarcasm, but rather in addition to our classic rolleyes.
Not sure what I’d use him for, except for those rare times when I’d want to express mouthwash-rinsing.
As another poster said, cartooning up to match the dumbing down? The softer side of the SD software to match the softer side of the SDMB?
Oh man, I’m turning into one of “those” people … hanging around message boards she swore she’d leave, just to see if anything has changed when it obviously hasn’t.
I wish I’d been completely broke, I mean, “chose” to not subscribe … might have missed the candy-assization that is now complete.
Yep, the new layout and graphics reek, but I guess I’m just an old-school stick in the mud for attractive graphics and layouts.
The Smilies look all the same to me. The rest looks kind of XP-ish, whats the big deal?
It’s been awhile.
Am I at the right place?
No way!
I’ve wasted one whole hour reading these silly posts. Amusing though.
The new graphics appear to be vBulletin default stock graphics. When the SDMB administrators updated the board to 3.0.7, they likely overwrote the old graphics in the /images directory. There’s a special graphic-free vBulletin update they could have downloaded to avoid this.
A while ago, I created a custom vBulletin graphic theme based on GNOME icons. The graphics are tasteful, neutral, small in both physical and file size, and they got plenty of kudos from other vBulletin administrators. The SDMB admins are more than welcome to use them.
