I tend to agree that we don't really need more smiles and emoticons... but if we did have them I'd just like that to be the same style so that they match in, rather then looking like we've just grabbed a missmash of smiles from all over them place and lumped them together.

I'll see what I can do.... though someone with a little gif making skill could probably remake them to match the style we have now.

I'll look into some programming to utilize the /me function in PHPBB - I've set it up in vbulletin and invisionfree. It's very useful to have especially if you want to replace smilies with emotive text.

IRC style is fun. Though it's effect is kind of minimalized in this setting. That's more of a chatbox format.

I've got a query: Does the different style really matter?

Aesthetically or codewise?
