Thumbs up New Themes/Smileys

I post this message here because it couldn't fit in a private message to twyg and I decided to let everyone know too:
Quote:
to twyg:
Hey, twyg, I just love what you did with the site! It looks very cool.

I'm thinking of including the smileys that come with Fire, plus some others in Macfora.

Here is the list of Fire smileys:

http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/AngrySmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/BlushingSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/CoolSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/DevilSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/FlatSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/GrinningSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/HappySmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/HatSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/JammingSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/KissySmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/NinjaSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/SadSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/ScaredSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/TongueSmiley.tiff
http://homepage.mac.com/secret300/WinkingSmiley.tiff

Try to aquafy the Macfora smileys, to preserve the theme and don't forget to preserve the transparency when you convert the Fire smileys into GIFs.

Have fun creating a new theme!
Any suggestions?

I like them, but I don't think they're sharp enough. There's not enough detail.

Ugh, I can't stand the Fire smilies. Way too small, and I don't particularly care about the transparency.

Proteus' massive database of smilies is far better.

Hmmm? Where is this database?

And, we could always use the sharpen function in Photoshop. I should have made this a poll

But, everyone has to agree here, because I know what it means to have bad smileys in your message board.

When I first heard about Macosx.com wanting aquified smiles, I went into photoshop and made an aquified smile. but when I sized it down it didn't look very good.
