wrong smiley picked for whistling

Quote from GTB

[...] they don't suit used here due to now bigger font-size used.

The default font-size everybody can change for his own needs.

They are using the EmojiOne smilies here?

They are not ?

Quote from GTB

if you want to use smaller smilies the option is there anyway to create another smiley cat via ACP and stick another collection of smaller smilies in that separate from the main default ones. I did same with WBB 4.1 by creating another smiley category and uploading and listing all the xenforo ones in it. So there's no need to include two different smiley sets by default.

There's no need for this big smileys. A smaller version would be perfekt for every font size. And no I do not plan to decrease the font size. But I consider this topic for admins who want.

Huh? So which do you think are the EmojiOne smilies?

The ones that show up when you click the " Smilies " tab

You are confusing me @GTB . What are you trying to say ?

WoltLab . @GTB

It was typo that I missed. I wanted to say " instead of what we used to see here. "

Here are the ones I got wrong.

I think this will make a better :tired: smiley

PS : My own creation

This seems like a sad tongue smiley or a beard smiley or an exhausted smiley to me. But definatley no tired smiley

WoltLab Burning Board currently uses what is known as Emoji One (Development). Which is completely free to use in paid developments (such as WoltLab) and royalty free. It's also the system default standard in Firefox and the up coming release of Microsoft Skype and Office (for those who have seent he preview release).

Emoji One recognized that they could improve upon the current Emoji's (smilies) which is why they'll be updating them this month. You can see an example here

Update Emoji One v3

Quote from Alexander Ebert

I'm really looking forward to it, but unfortunately, they give little to no information out. Guess I'll have to wait until the release and decide what to do with the smileys.

I really hope you stick with Emoji One. They're quickly becoming the standard much in the same way that Font Awesome finally became commonly used.

The only other top 2 popular Emoji's I can think of is Apple's and Twitter's, both you'd have to pay royalties for since your intentional use is associated with promotion of a paid development. And no, the free framework argument would not fly. Someone else made the exact same argument and Twitter had no problem suing them into oblivion.

It would seem Twitter has updated their original release and changed their terms.

So I believe you could WoltLab now use Twitter's as an alternative. Although given their past, I would be cautious.
