Definitely siblings!  They're from this site which is a great resource, but a real slog to look through.

Is it possible to organise them into some kind of order? It always takes me ages to find the smiley face.

So the small ‘smiley’ faces...animals...sewing...birthday related...

I think they’re are too many similar emojis that could easily be culled down to about 3. 

  >< :[ :P -< :o :S :\ >:)

I see what you mean ... Yuk!

If they made it easier they could market it. Peeps would be happy to pay a fiver for a set of decent smilies without the slog! Surely Shirley?

 :S How can cunning, erm, undecided, shocked, what?! and really?! be taken down to three?!?!?!?  :o
I love the second one and even when there's nothing funny it makes me smile. He's having such a good time!

I think  :[ and  :\  are very similar,

as are  >< and  -<

And I'm not sure anyone uses  :S

I'd quite like to replace  :P with   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]   but he would need to be made bigger, I think.

And I do agree about the ordering.  It always takes me ages to find  :)  I will tidy them up at some point (when there will be an outcry because nobody can find their favourites any more...)

Got the wrong one there.  I meant   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]  as the replacement.  Only bigger.

Heh - seeing him in a post he does look a lot more familiar.  Fear not, he is safe.

I would like to see uniformity in the icons, but realise this may be a tall order.  Just saying.

We tried very hard ro find a set that had everything we wanted, but no such thing exists.  I do what I can to edit them and make them similar in size and colour, but the possibilities are limited.  Dealing with such small images, even changing the size by one or two pixels tends to make them fuzzy.
