Usergroup permission based smilies.

[Thanatos]

Anyone ever found or created a plugin or product that restricts smilies based on usergroup permissions, hiding them from those that don't have permission to use them?

I understand anyone who sees the smilie in a post can copy it, which is fine...I'll use rules and threaten my wrath if they post the restricted ones outside of a designated forum

Just curious.

bumping this to see if anyone has found a way

I'd be very interested in this, too.

Not quite you're looking for, but you can use MySmilies VB (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=135336) for letting users upload their own smilies, and that can be restricted by usergroup.

I am interested in this as well. I can't find anything other than the MySmiliesVb, which won't work for my board. I don't mind uploading the smilies, and I don't want a rogue user being able to upload whatever sort of obscene smiley he wants, even if I can delete it. Smiley permissions per Usergroup (like what is available for the Post Icons) would be fantastic.
