More in-depth on my chat commands request about smilies.
We have smilies, that look slightly deranged, but smilies nonetheless...
I think that they should be a little redesigned, and we should just have a whole little emoji set. I'd be happy to design them.
(I need to know what the smilie dimensions are, and I also might need to design them in pixels, but I might be able to make non-pixel designs, but just resize the images to be however small they need to be. Maybe I can pull off the high resolution if I try).
In addition, we should also have a little button next to all text boxes on the site (or at least wherever possible) that, when clicked, brings up a box/grid/list thingie with all of the little emojis. Then click on an emoji you'd want, and it'll automatically paste the emoji to wherever your cursor is.
I'd think it would also be preferred that the box goes away after moving the cursor to another part in the text, or hitting send/save/post.
The places where it'd be good is chatrooms, blogs, bulletin boards, groups, shoutboxes, perhaps polls, messages, profile pages, and in Setting for our bios.
emoji is 24x21 btw
