make or :byobnice: smilie and i will buy it

okay so we have options

assuming we're going for the walgreen's "Nice!" (which I guess we don't necessarily need to)

here is with a white bg, 20 pixels high to match the yospos one:

here it is transparent:

I left in the "TM" symbol (which isn't really readable) but that could go

the trademark's gotta go tbh

whatever people want

personally I sort of like it, in that it's clear we are mocking the ridiculous trademark

agreedo on the trademark symbol needing to disappear tho; that thing visually intrusive.

ok that makes sense then.

eh I really don't feel strongly, here's one without:

since this is hogge's idea maybe it should be hogge's call?

i wonder if there's a way we could make this smiley just a tad more byob in some way

too big? the byobuddy is barely visible as it is

another option:

Are "nice" and "byobnice" the same thing, or different things, at a spiritual level?

ya, they're different

I think sa could use a general-utility "nice" smilie that's not yospos or byob specific

don't get me wrong, I think a byob version might be cool, but it feels like a lot is going on when you're trying to jam byob into the mix

very nice suggestions so far!

btw, does anyone know the max size?

when i click the 'purchase smilie' link it says:

10kB max, up to 90x25px
Allowed types: GIF, PNG, JPG

but i don't know if it can be trusted, and admins can approve larger ones. i think that i'll ask an admin what would be ok

maybe the smilie could have a byobish background colour and the text with a different byobish colour

e: sent a pm to an admin

I'm happy to do more variations and work within whatever limitations apply. having done a few concepts now though I guess I'd prefer for you to let me know with some specificity what you're looking for. if the goal is a specifically byob-themed smiley, cool I'll focus on that. byob colors is cool but is that with or without byobuddy? the smaller the smilie the harder it will be to recognize.
