Title: "._."
Post by: Yeong on November 11, 2013, 09:42:35 pm
Can we fix this ( ._.) to something else?
It's creeping me out D:

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 11, 2013, 09:48:24 pm
Really? O.O

That said, judging by how people use the text-based version of it, I guess it could be assigned to something else. :P

The smiley doesn't even look like its text version.

Post by: aeTIos on November 11, 2013, 09:56:58 pm
._. is a sadface :P
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Yeong on November 11, 2013, 10:00:27 pm
For now?

Edit: Ew.
But you get the idea. :P

Post by: shmibs on November 11, 2013, 10:13:03 pm
that would be more appropriate. here's a cleaner version of that gif

I still don't see how the ._. smiley is that creepy compared to if :) used (http://img.ourl.ca//clean.gif) instead. :P
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Deep Toaster on November 11, 2013, 11:36:29 pm
To me the frogface looks more like a really big :P than ._.. Also (http://img.ourl.ca//clean.gif) looks like something that could belong to :> or C:
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Scipi on November 12, 2013, 12:46:23 am
I've tried using ._. before and had to use the [nobbc][/nobbc] tags

Edit: The clean version I like a whole lot better :P

If we are already talking about smileys.....how about the kitty face? :3

Post by: imo_inx on November 12, 2013, 07:38:00 am
I think we should use the same type of skins for smileys. Compared to the shading of some, and the "pushing-out" of others (anti-bevel? :P)  ._. just doesn't fit in. Then again, neither does  :angel:.

Also, I have a feeling this might turn into that old thread, but :3 would be a cool smiley.

There was also a The Game emoticon that I posted somewhere once, where the eyes and the mouth were replaced with that text. :P

As for the weird smile face I posted earlier, it looks like someone who's watching some adult video but with a pedobear look >.<

Post by: Streetwalrus on November 12, 2013, 03:29:48 pm
LOL at the weird smile. XD
Also don't forget Darl's :ti:. ;)

Post by: flyingfisch on November 12, 2013, 05:31:39 pm
Even if you have to just remove it without replacing, please get rid of this smiley: ._.

I can't stand it, and I don't see how it resembles the ASCII at all.
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: annoyingcalc on November 12, 2013, 06:27:36 pm
._. is really ugly, I never really took notice of it until now though
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: imo_inx on November 12, 2013, 06:54:13 pm
Just think how if he removes it or changes it, this thread will make no sense since it would be filled with the new face or just the ASCII one. :P
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Scipi on November 12, 2013, 07:30:11 pm
:3 would be a great emoticon to have (http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=10829.0;attach=9826;image)

I also wish that > : D could be something other than >:D
>:D could be 3:D
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Sorunome on November 13, 2013, 03:21:52 am
i actually like that one being >:D because > : D is supposed to be devil.

Post by: LDStudios on November 13, 2013, 06:33:25 am
I always thought of it as just an evil grin in general

That, and a lot of people are used to using the current one.

Also, I find it funny that a lot of you don't like or are creeped out by  ._.. Yet it's posted everywhere on this thread. It's spreading like the plague. It's over usage here actually suggests that you all like it instead of your intended message. :P Personally, I always thought ._.  was like equivalent to the sweat drop in animes. Basically a face for when you feel awkward/embarrassed. I agree that ._. doesn't really fit with ._.. Though I do not have issue with ._. and actually find it quite funny. The :3 emoticon has been requested for quite some time, and I'd like to see it added as well.
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Darl181 on November 13, 2013, 11:56:49 am
I've noticed >:) being misparsed a few times..though at what point does it go from a fix to a complete overhaul? :P
I guess it's still nothing compared to the stuff on the old boards.

Anyway the yellow frogitung guy's alt-text is "blah," so I guess that might work for that particular smiley? :blah: :blah:
Title: Re: "._."
Post by: Streetwalrus on November 13, 2013, 01:00:07 pm
Lol yeah same as AoC, though I write it as -_-' usually.

Funny, yesterday I had wondered why the image for my emoticon suddenly broke (since it's just a link to an attachment somewhere).

Yay :3

Too late, it has already become an Omnimeme ._.
We should make this one  :hyper: popular as well, just to mess with epileptic people.

We should get more animated gifs, like this one:  :w00t: (my favorite emoticon ever) or these  *.*  :banghead:

No thanks. There's enough weirdness in that list already <_< (I might've had too much radiation for breakfast... wut?)

Also, lost teh game.

Post by: Sorunome on January 23, 2014, 10:56:10 am
eh, i don't think we need more animated smileys, well, maybe some derp smiley, idk, but remember, omnimaga isn't about smileys ;)

I'm okay with (mild use of) animated smileys as long as they don't change color <_<. I find that that gets really distracting and hence annoying. Thankfully, we only have two ;).
(Alternatively, would it be possible to add an option in the profile settings to disable parsing smileys? I don't personally find graphical smileys particularly necessary.)
Edit: 2222 posts! That's 2*11*101 factored, and $8AE in hex, neither of which is particularly notable :P

Hmm I'm gonna have to go with LDStudious on this one. I more think of > : D as "harsh intentions", I actually rarely associate it to devil, which I commonly use as 3 : D

Actually, that's not a bad idea. You should suggest it here in the <a href=http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?board=13.0>Site feedback</a> board. :)

Can you update the little button in omnom that brings up the chart of emoticons? It is still missing the new ._. and :3

Please post it the next time in the appropriate topic (http://ourl.ca/18280).

Anyways, I am well aware of that, but I am not going to fix it until i finish re-writing how smileys are working, that was just a quick-fix to satisfy you guys :P
