This is sure to drive all the icon-haters crazy! ANIMATED emoticons! Truth be told, I don't know how civility survives on a board with some of these things available!

Here they are:

And here's their designations:

I think we could put the "playing-the-violin" to good, and frequent, use around here! And with the Gutter Police on hiatus, I think the "boobies" (yes, that's right, folks!) would get a lot of mileage around here, too!


(by the way, I have a problem with this site and it's name for obvious reasons, but that, as they say, is a whole nother story...so let's leave that discussion alone and stick to the FUN!)
[Edit] Oh, I see we already have this discussion going on Misc.!

Nothing comes up -- I just get a blank page on both links. ):


(the above is a left-handed unsmiley)

I usually use Netscape. Would it help if I tried Exploder?

I don't use Netscape meself, but I use Explorer and got in - so I don't know if that's the key - but it might be worth a try.

There are some fierce funny ones in there. There's one with a little fella shooten with 2 big guns. I'm not a violint teddy or anthin, but it's awful funny ta look at.

G-Ted mentions the guy banging away on the two six-shooters.

John Woo is most well known as the director of The Matrix. However, he has directed a multitude of fast-paced, bullet-ridden movies in his native Hong Kong, and a few other mainstream movies. The two six-shooter scenes are almost his trademark.

Careful, Ted. Note the name of the site. They provide a forum to encourage students to steal literary work, even work in copyright, as their own. The site even provides a "special printing page." Puke, puke!
They'll steal your work from ya, the no good rotten...well, as I said, this discussion is already happening on Misc. But I'd really like to send the webmasters back one of their own gigantic "flippin'-off" emoticons!
