Minecraft Forums

Backstory:

Yesterday night, before I went to sleep, I had my usual time that I just lay in bed and think about everything while my mind drifts off into things. And it was, in that moment, I gained inspiration for the forum smileys you see before you, in this pack. It was an idea so magnificent, so simple, and yet so brilliant in my mind that I nearly wept in the brilliance of this idea. A concept so simple, an idea that only takes a couple minutes to make, but (as far as I believe) matches the theme and blocky style of Minecraft so well, and doesn't fall into such a generic decor that it blew my mind. Today, I woke up and worked on these smileys.

Here is the link.

I demand your opinion on these smilies, all of them 16 by 16 in stature, and if you like them and wish to request more, be my guest.

If you don't feel like downloading that file, here's a sample of one of the smilies:

They are not implemented yet. This is a thread to gather your opinions.

It's not bad, but they need names to show what they express (it's a requirement for forum implementation, note how all smilies have names). What are their names?

Keep note that I'm compiling all those smilies you're making. I'll name this one myself.

Very cool. This is pretty much what I was hoping for myself (Too much to do otherwise I would have done it myself at some point. Also, I was considering yellow backgrounds, although I think I like this better)
A few thoughts, though. I think the Surprise faces should have their eyebrows going up, in a _--- ---_ sort of way, and the regular surprise face should maybe have a circular mouth instead of square.
Finally, the flirting smilie could use a few dots next to the right eye, as if they were eye wrinkles or something, just to emphasize that that eye is in fact closed (and not just lazy)
