They need to be shaded to match the current smileys.

[Teilyr]

There in lies the problem, and why it's been taking us so long to do it.

There's alot of cheese in the world. So, we have to decide whether to use a slice or a large block, then figure how to shade it.

It's a process that'll make the cheese smilie that much better.

[Wild Bill]

         

All mine, I think.

is phpBB default.

The rest you did, however.

As for the cheese smilie, slice or block is a tough choice. If it is even going to look like a block, there won't be any room for the facial details. But if it's a slice... well, that would be being cruel to the block.

Yes, we gotta respect the cheese' rights or the cheese rights activists will be on our tale...

EDIT: Look, new cheeses (I shaded) (I am not pestering, I'm just showing)

The cheese smilie is finished.

I'll be unveiled when I complete my whistling smilie.

[Sparkrulean]

How about my "cool smilie"

Or my "Dead Smilie"

Or my "Scared smilie"?

EDIT: you already have a cool smilie... and it looks better than mine!

By the way, why are the eyes and mouths of your smileys transparent? Are they ghosts or something?

[Wild Bill]

Who likes my cheese smilie?

[ShadowTiger]

I Love your cheese smily, Wild Bill. It's Teh Shizzle! I hope to be able to use it many times.

[skateboarder11]

Man, everybody keeps making so many new smilies! Keep up all the good work!

[DashSim]

Awesome, we have a sleepy smiley. :zzz I like them.

[theplustwo]

Cool. I like the fact that they all match, looks much more professional than, say, AGN's smileys, which are a somewhat random mix of styles and colors.

I thought of a face I'd like to see the other day, but now I can't remember what it was. I'll post it if I think of it again.

Also, what Gif animator do you use, Tei?

Also, here's the "razz" smiley I have on my site, I modified it to look like the trillian razz, which is one of my favorite smileys in the world.
