Emoticons Changed?

Is it just me or have the Forum emoticons changed to some really horrible multi-coloured ones with nasty colour clashing edges? (horrible transparent GIFs which seem to assume a white background on them which means nastily aliased edges).

I especially loved the old Confused one, now I'm getting a little blue man with ??? over his head.


What gives?

I'm seeing the rough edges, too.

Maybe they can hire someone to them out.

I thought it was just me...

Transparent GIFs are the work of the devil! (for this very reason). Even IE supports transparent PNGs nowadays.

I've blocked the hideous things now, but give us back our old smiles! Otherwise how will I know if GG is serious or not in her posts?

Maybe the problem is that they are still using the old smilies that assumed a clear colour, like we saw on the old EU boards? Maybe not... either way we demand new shiney things!1!!!1

We did have different, much cooler ones even yesterday. It's like the previous images (which came when the servers switched over) have been replaced with crappier, older versions.

Obviously it ain't the end of the world or anything, it just looks way uglier. I suspect it's not an intentional change (or I hope not anyway).

I could care less about the smilies--it's more the complete deletion of most of the chatter and posts in all the Social Groups that I belong to that I mourn.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Try this one instead:


Oops, that's not transparent either.. Well.. DO THE WAVE!

I'm surprised no one's claimed that it's a Nemesis plot.

There were CoH emoticons. For Hero, out of Korea. We just never got them.

little AT emoticons would be kick-***! we could use them in our sigs to list our toons, without taking up so much space.
or they could just be the normal emoticons with masks


@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.

I think ALL the old emoticons are better - that's why I rescued them from oblivion!

Instead of flip-flopping between two sets of emoticons can they just add more?

...And they changed them again.

I'd like for them to be just a wee bit bigger, so you can more easily tell the difference between them.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
