Smiley Text Codes - your opinions please

A while back, I did some work with the smilies and at the time I mentioned that we should perhaps take a look at the text codes to make them easier to remember; this was agreed to be a good idea, but I have not managed to get round to it until now, so here is your chance to have your say!

For the avoidance of doubt, the text codes I am talking about is the text that has a colon in at the start and the end like this - :fat controller: - that when typed into a post will display the associated smiley.

I will have to spread this over a few posts to get them all in, but please feel free to add your opinions by posting the smiley and then the text that you think is appropriate WITHOUT adding the colons (just in case the text already exists somewhere, and replaces your suggestion with a smiley!) - Oh, and I am only posting the ones that I currently think we need to look at, but if there is one I haven't listed that you think needs changed, please add it to your post.

OK, here we go:

- Currently = th scifD36
Proposal = peek

- Currently = SUNsmile
Proposal = sunsmile

- Currently = love30
Proposal = worthy

- Currently = blue thumb
Proposal = bthumb

- Currently = thumbsup

- Currently = dbgrtmb
Proposal = gthumb

- Currently = wallbanging

- Currently = fingers crossed
Proposal = fingersx

- Currently = lolpt
Proposal = point

- Currently = loll
Proposal = lol

- Currently = lunapic 130165696578242 5

- Currently = wub2

- Currently = cry3

- Currently = cat-kittyandsmiley

So do you think sus would be better for that one @Scrungee?

 

That one is easy - rumpypumpy

@HarryS - that you can do, and that will remain; however, some of us dinosaurs who learned to use PC's before mice tend to stick to the keyboard as much as possible and avoid having to click on things; the text codes encapsulated in colons allows us to do that.

Thanks for the input @"M"

I am not sure about a smiley for fireworks - would that be a picture of terrified animals, or a selfish barsteward?

 

See, I was thinking this might be more appropriate - they do t-shirts too!

 

As it is you that asked, and only because it is you , I will have a hunt around for something suitable and get back to you.
