I am posting in regards to the "Flutter" smiley icon ( ) which is activated by typing three question marks in a row. I find it annoying that every time I want to do something like... Mega Man: DATA DID WHAAAAAAAAT (and end it with more than two question marks) ...I'd end up with a bunch of little Flutters instead of a bunch of question marks, which would emphasize Mega Man's hypothetical concern for whatever mayhem Data may have caused at the time. I was wondering if it was possible to modify the code for the smileys in order to make posting such dialogue a bit easier (and I'm really glad there isn't a smiley that's triggered by "!!!")

I apologize for the problem. I wanted to give the board some custom icons and came up with the Flutter and Data which I thought people might find fun. To use them however, requires replacing the default ones. So I chose what seemed to me the least-used smileys.
But you see, that being the case, even if the Flutter was gone, your ??? would be replaced by the default ??? smiley. Fortunately there is a way to avoid this, which I have done with this post. Below the box in which you type, you can check-mark the little box that says, "Check this if you'll be adding code (or don't like smileys)". That'll solve the problem for you.

Thanks. Is there any possible way to make a post that contains both smilies and "???", or will I have to resort to simply using tactics like "^_^" to make smilies?

Personally I'm quite fond of the ^_^ smiley, and would rather use it than the smiley because the standard smiley icons make your text rows different sizes... Anyway, to my knowledge, no there isn't a way to use the three question marks and the smileys together.

It would be super awesome if all the smilies were custom to mml but matched the original, like the smile is tron's grin and then the wink is megaman and the crazy grin could be teasel - difficult maybe, but i'd be willing to give it a shot for you fab if you told me the size detail information! :-D ;D

I think I could do that too. It needs to be a JPEG or GIF file, right? That would be so awesome if there were more custom MegaMan Legends smilies!!!

I don't care much for the look of these generic smileys myself, so if anyone were to come up with some really fantastic looking Legends ones, I'd be more than happy to replace them. As a matter of fact I might make more myself if I had the time... They should be 15x15 pixels, gif with transparency wherever required... It's okay to go wider than 15 pixels, but not taller, because then there would be large gaps in between sentences. Anyway, if anyone feels like giving it a try, feel free!
