WooHoo! Richard has installed all my nice new icons for the forums. Oops, I guess not all have been done yet, but I'm sure they will eventually relpace the old ones.

That was fun, thanks Richard for another notch on my "Almost Famous" meter.

Cheers!

Thanks, hmmm, I wonder if 'other' icons could be added? (more "Instant Graemlins" ) like a beer mug, Martini, a shovel (for rollo ) or any others. It would sure help make this forum unique. If it can be done I'm willing to make them.

Cheers!

A shovel? Why only for Rollo? I'd think anyone could use a shovel in a discussion where too much bull... was being dispensed.

What would be really cute is some SE specific icons. Can you make smiley faces in the style of some SE IV races, like the Phong?

SpaceEmpires.net has the race portraits as smileys in it's forums. Surely that could be done here.

I dont THINK the graemlin and post icon choices can be setup specific to a particular forum. But I would be thrilled if I was wrong. Richard would definetly be the one to ask. Or if you want to be mean then get Mindi excited about the idea (Im half kidding on that Last part, it was the married devil in me)

Why would they need to be set up for a specific forum? So what if there are a couple of extra emoticons for a different forum? Not going to kill anyone.

No it wouldnt but I pictured it as being able to go from a few or having many SEIV specific ones. A few can easily be added to the general selection, in fact I believe David has already done a few. But then of course we will end up with some dragons and wizards, some tanks and ocean ships, some horse cavalry and ... well you get the idea.
