If by "people" you mean the three or four people who suggest and endorse those smilies, then maybe.

The "problems" I have with the smilies is that there are a lot of them, and that some of them are ugly (either because they are flatout ugly, or because they're not congruent with the original smiley-set).

The forums have 55-60 smilies right now.
Do we really need all of them?

Markos, if you include the code I sent to you, more people will use more smilies because it's easier to access them.

I mailed it to you, thus if you didn't clean out your mailbox it still must be there

oh wait, I forgot, I don't get through your filter

Here's some smilies I made when I was bored...











It's really quite disturbing, the sort of smilies I chose to make, now that I think about it.

(EDIT: Feel free to use any of these, just right click > save target as... to make sure they don't distort.)

see even Markos acknowledges that threads made in off-topic get more views than they do in Apolyton/community forum.

I do like the headbanger one. But he is going a bit fast. I admit I headbanged a little when I was younger. I never went that fast. . The only problem I see is there won't be that many uses for it.

The violin one would get many more uses. Although it might get over used like the smilie. People use that smilie when they are too lazy to respond to a post they act like is old news and/or trolling. And people will use the violin smilie whenever someone complains about something. But in either case it will get some use.
