Finally, I have the guts to ask if this is okay for everyone to use.

I did this with Photoshop CS3. It has transparency, is small, round, and simple.

It is attached below.

Can this be allowed?

I don't get it. What emotion is that? "It's raining outside"? "Holy shit, there's a giant drop of sweat on my forehead"?

Uh, it means:

= =
-_-
"What the...?"
"..."
"Uh...."
"huh...?"
etc.

It's usually seen in many Japanese comics and manga.

It should be at least nearly the same size, and it's style should fit more to the others.

I'm sure you could add the image to your own posts when you feel it's necessary.
Just use

It represents a cold sweat. The calm look either means the emote is either frustrated or mildly embarrassed.

An example would be:

"I just had sex!"

"That's nice...

I vote against. Not only I don't think this emotion is ever used I think the smily could use some work and improving.

Sorry, thanks for doing the effort though. :)

It is the same size. 16x16 square pixels, isn't it?

I'll try to improve it. Just tell me what needs improving. Thanks.

Here's a selection of different shades of it. This expression doesn't mean anything that's related to cynical, darkly, and/or skeptical expressions. It's just an expression used in Eastern Asia, Hong Kong, and Japan, and it's often used humorously.

Found a slightly preferable meaning to it: >_>

From left to right:
0%: Original, no edits.
11%: A bit lighter, and a small dab of light purple.
21%: Light, with a bit of light gray purplish color added.
36%: Slightly lighter, same as above.
51%: Faintly light.

Anything else above it would make this smiley look like a ghost.

It doesn't fit in with the others; it doesn't have that thing where it looks a little bit 3-D, it's too high compared to the others, and it share style with the others (they have bright spots in the middle, etc.).

The emoticons are centered with the text whereas images are not. Not his fault.

I still think it doesn't fit.
It's just the style of it :p

It should either be like these:
:thdown::thup::nuts:

Or like the rest of them:
:p:rolleyes::eek::(:):D

It also seems too small :)

I wondered how is it small? Is it because of the dark outer edges that makes it smaller? The ones without the 3D look smilies seems to be the same size as mine, though. :confused: I just mix the styles of the 3D-looking ones and non-3D-looking ones together. :eek:

Oh, by the way, since you're using the original smiley design, how about trying one of these in this post here? It might give a different perspective of the smiley.

Yours doesn't have a white-to-color gradient starting from the middle to the outside. Maybe that's it. Also the eyes are shorter compared to the ones in this one :thup:, Or the smile size of this one :thdown:

I like it. It fits the -.- expression, which I use a lot.

And doesn't mean anything or so...
Same for o_O that some people also use a lot and means just about nothing.

Emotions in writing are already not that easy.
Over the Internet... very difficult.

The one suggested here... no idea really. What is that thing?
