Journal Start
To coincide with our upcoming UI update (and one of the largest site updates in FA history!) later this Summer, we're looking for artists! What for you ask? For emoticons!
Yep, that's right. We're looking to refresh our little embeddable buddies with fresh new faces, new themes, and best of all, it's open to everybody. Absolutely everybody!
Icon requirements:
* Clean and worksafe
* 32x32 pixels large
* Images must be PNG with a transparent background *OR* GIF (animated or none) with a transparent background. No JPGs. Seriously. We'll slap you.
* Must have 15 unique icons (or more!) per set.
We'll pick the best five sets or so and put the rest on display for the community. Oh, and those selected for FA's official emoticons will all get $50.00 each in monies to spend on whatever they want.
Please send icon sets to admin [at] furaffinity [dot] net
Deadline: End of July
Oh, and one more thing...
Whatever icon sets you make should be public domain! Yeppers. So, if our friends at Furocity or our buddies at SoFurry (or wherever!) want to use them they can. This is as much for the entire community as it is FA. Bonus! Our only requirement is we get to preview them first (and give you all the credit and attention and spoonsful of minor furry fame you can nibble!).
Spiffy!
CAN HAS QUESTIONS? We gives answers.
The boobies will stay.

FA+

these icons :P
Emoticons for comments 'n stuff
we need a sweatdrop animated emoticon!
And a :3
and a MANGO! :D
XD
ZOMG
I AM THE MANGO THEIF!
*nom nom nom*
People know who I am! 8D
*nod*
So yeah. Charity.
the choice is mine
And what will we ever do without our wonderful :embarrassed:? Man, this whole deal is a CONSPIRACY.
i will never betray this theme.........
the best part is having two icons tbh.
Boobies unite.
bOoOoBiEs LoOk So KeWl...I mUsT sQuEeZe DeM....
r.i.p. man
YES!!!
more mango
:nosammich: same thing, but with a big ass "DENIED" sign over it.
Creativity, peoples!
*nods thoughtfully* Yes yes, much faster to type! I am loving this change....
Still haven't figured that one out yet. I know.. get wit teh digital age
((Has sold hir soul to Bill Gates *cough*satan*cough* back in Windows 3.11))
I might give it a shot.
Also, they won't like, auto-change will they? like, :D will stay :D instead of turning into a emoticon? That would be neat.
For example, one user uses the Fender set, another the Dragoneer set, etc.
It wouldn't be like we use the light or dark theme and that's all we ever see,
it's like, you can put a 'Neer next to a Fender.
And you'll be able to use all sets, or at least, should be able to. =3
Aw, maaan. xD; I thought it would be funny to have a 'Neer set. :< Fender set at least! D:
The mascot has to have one, seriously. it's /Fender/. o3o
I've got your back, Fender.
FA is gonna look completely identical to the new Steam, and also pretty close to dA with a different color.
Personally, I thought that looked great.
You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people all of the time, but you cannot please all of the people all of the time.
NO NO NO NO
why must they change what already works so well and looks great?!?
They fabricated the journal and made up some shouts? That's... Actually, that's hilarious. xD

<(")
In the chat box thing :D
Still, I can't wait for it to be launched. D:
I think its about time, really. itll be good!
But regardless of how cool it is people will STILL complain. People complain about website upgrades all the time, no matter how awesome they may be 9.9
Can't please them all. There be haters. D:
You can please some people all the time, all the people some of the time, but never all the people all the time.
I hope you can pit icons of groups and furs on there though
Hope to see some interesting stuff come with this UI update.
Can we do multiple colours in the icons that we wish to submit?
iCOOOONS

Don't give me the money. Give me its equivalenbt value in Haribo

Your OWN icon.
Take it home to yer mam. She'll be well chuffed! Eh eh
They're okay, but a bit unnecessary.
It's the only way everyone knows when I'm talking srs bzns here
Is one more or less okay or must it be exact 15? Just to confirm.
;p
I do suggest not making them neon or overly obnoxious, because that'll just end up annoying people.
I don't think I'm gutter minded enough for FA
I can do a custom one.
And they're very awesome at that!

omgomgomg dat would be SOOOO ADORABLE :3
I hope atleast the heart stays. :3
AND/OR x3 ICON!
Will you be accepting only one persons entry of icons, or if you get like a dozen people offering awesome icons will you pick and select or choose them all, etc...
*would be a great time to have an "OMG WHATHAVE I DONE" icon...* i shall substitute these...
Glad to see an update on these emoticons, but can you please keep the face and the face? They're seriously perfect for everything!
But I already got my 15 minutes of fame not too long ago. - XD
Because I need the Β¬_Β¬ face a LOT.
doesn't quite cut it.

THIS NEEDS TO BE ONE
A set of 15 or more is allowed. Is there a maximum number per set or can we get crazy with it (20's to 50's to 100's)?
May we send more than one set if we can think of many?
so, species specific or just general emoticons? reason i ask is that i can see it being a desirable feature when you set your species to have that related set available when you're making comments. i.e. you play a tiger? tiger themed icons are available... play a fox? fox themed. etc...
oh, and for sake of uniformity, in case different artists' sheets are chosen, what about thinks like drop shadows or the like?
Umm...how about poking icon and tail wagging icon!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT MAKE FA LOOK LIKE DEVIANTART!
I might have a go at making an icon or two...
We need a .-.
lol, i never saw it that way :D
' icon
....
still, we need a ffffuuuu- icon
EXACTLY
this website just cant be furry without it!
also, PAW EMOTE!!! Maybe some pawprint icons from different species, avian, reptile, canine feline etc etc :3
a ":3" icon
>:C
I think if these ones just were revamped with ears or tails, or just some little animal theme for each face we'd be good to go.
Also, I'm still trying to figure out the difference between the & faces lol
We need a full bar.
One for this: D:
One for this *3*
yay.
FULL MOONS TONIGHT!
or one thats a combo of the two...>_>
one for this >_>
and this <_<
and a scaly one for this O.=.O
<( ^.^ )> <( '.'<) (>'.')>
Bloody Kerby emotes...
like any other submission?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/546166/fa/page-rev-2.0.png
Will a journal be posted about other upcoming changes?
Is there a reason why?
thats my little add on to this
sometime....
I heard "another summer with FA crashed and gone."
http://www.furaffinity.net/full/3941488/
PICKLE SURPISE!
A 'Cool guy' emote, Awesome face, etc
Oh the things people would do...
But I put my vote on Mangos.
:3 for you, you can use if you want, i dont care lol
Since many anime fans are also furs, I think anime emotes (sweatdrop and more) should be a part of the set, as well as furryisms like lick, scritch, glomp, yiff (maybe), and others. If anybody needs a set to look at for ideas, DeviantArt has a wide range of emotes. http://comments.deviantart.com/emoticons
I'm not a pixel artist, so I can't do emotes. I know it's hard work to make them though, and that what I said might be asking for too much. Just throwing ideas out there for anyone who does them. Good luck to those who are participating!
Had a go at this Emoticon thingy.
Here is a preview of them for anyone whose nosy

Enjoy!
Its a Badger, badger, badger...
Also, we need a nerdy one no matter what :3
If we now really consider new emoticons (what I've read, not all are happy about it.) for the new FA layout, I suggest that the one making the emoticons tries to make them fit with the new interface as good as possible, instead of having the different emoticons be made in all kinds of different styles.
I do wonder what the new interface probably will look like, and if a sneak-peek is revealed somewhere, I think making the emoticons in the same style as FA's new interface wouldn't be too hard.
Suggestions for what emoticons needed/wanted is also a great start.
