Yellow Smiley pack Preview.

[Shelley_c]

I've been working on these smilies for about 2 weeks (On and off) about 2 hours work. I was just looking for a little feedback and hopefully a few suggestions on what other emotions to convey for this pack. I'm planning on replacing my multi-coloured "wacky series pack" for one coloured variant (dominated pack) with a few coloured ones for specific emoticons. I'm aiming for around 40-50 smilies that will consist in this pack alone with an add-on pack shortly designed afterwards which will consist of around 25 (including some extreme animations).

They are still at the development stage (W.I.P) so some of them may change and enhanced a little. This will be my first pack of fully vectored emoticons so the visually quality in my eyes seems higher than my previous packs.

Anyhow, Screenshot below and any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Depends, If I'm guessing sometime next week. The smiley pack aren't really a priority rather just a replacement because I'm bored with my current smiley's. This could span to 2 weeks, or could be as early as 2 hours time if I got my head down and worked on them non stop. Though my best estimate is early next week.

They look great in my opinion, and I was wondering, out of curiosity, are these the ones you'd submit to the vBulletin.org smiley submission topic? Because they'd just coincidentally be able to overwite every default smiley here.

[Shelley_c]

All my smiley packs would overwrite the default sets here and the other 10,000 smileys I designed and are lingering on my hardrive that haven't been released would replace them 100 fold.

With the default vbulletin pack consisting of around 12 smileys it wouldn't be hard to create a pack that overwrites the defaults. This particular pack is something I started designing a few weeks ago, a pack that I felt would replace my current smileys on the forum I run.

This has nothing to do with the smileys which are going to be implemented on the vbulletin.org forum.

Ps. Just because these smileys are being applied to replace my own smileys I will be releasing this pack to the public so any suggestions on what smileys to design to enduce the whole process to go a little faster the quicker you will be able to download them.

A minor update:

Anything is better than default. Or should I re-phrase. We are used to seeing default so it's only natural that we take a disliking to them although we shouldn't forget that the work that went into the default creations shouldn't be dismissed.

Cute? I'll have to do something about that. I'm trying for a generic feel whilst adding some kind of uniqueness to these smilies and hopefully additional creativity (thinking extreme emotions).

Again, If anyone has any suggestions on the type of emots I should add please post in this thread. Sometimes my brain can't get past the open the psd stage.

Shelley, looking good.

My only question, so far, would be how scalable will they be in regards to size? My personal preference lay with using smilies that are close in size to the 'stock' versions so that when they are used inline in the middle of a paragraph, the formatting is not distorted.

OOhh... thinking out loud... how about an exclamation point, thumbs up, & thumbs down so that they can be used to replace the post icons as well?
