I don't know how many of you have noticed, but for years now we have been unable to see emoticons in comments written before 2003. Not a lot of people browse such old and dusty areas of dA, but I do love to go back and browse the original emoticon deviations once in a while.

So it is with joy that I announce that the emoticon bug has finally been solved. As proof, view the description and the comments of Blushing Icon by marduke <--

And with that comes a realization of how far dA emoticons have come in the last decade. Let's take the blushing emoticon as an example:

Blush -> :blushes: -> :blush:

Oh, and in case you're curious about who created a certain emoticon in the Mood system, head over to dAmn-Emotes's faves and see for yourself. The collection includes all the emoticons that were not in storage (and not in the official legend collection).

January's over now. Since I only got 3 notes with chat-friendly emoticons to feature I'll go through the entire gallery and pick a bunch instead. That will take a while, so stay tuned. The 3 people who did note me will get a special feature box above the rest, for courtesy's sake.

Hm. I made updates to the Emoticon CLOUD database today. Don't know if I should post that stuff on this account or on zachriel. Damn, when will dA let me merge the two accounts? It's so confusing.

BurgerBunny just started up the bestest project ever. I don't know if it was her intention, but the end product of the project will be a whole lot of chat-friendly versions of plz accounts. I know people started doing something like this back when WeEmote forbade icons, so here are some "shrinked" plz accounts I've found:

:iconimhappyplz: AWSUM FAYSE by dbestarchitect
:iconwooooplz: Woooo emote version by Sinister-Starfeesh
:iconiloveyouplz:

There are more out there but since I don't use them myself (except the woooo one) I really don't know how to find them :lol:

If you love using plz accounts, but also love making me happy, please have a look at BurgerBunny's project and make us some 15x15 "I'm Happy plz" emoticons.

That stop-motion animation is adorable, don't you think? It's simple, not perfect, but still makes you giggle.

Mood Emoticons
I'm sure you've all noticed the Mood Emoticon system you can use in journals and comments. Well, I've never really used that system. I knew my O.o by nillemotes was in it, because back then the emoticon used to be in my Scraps and for legal reasons it had to be in the Emoticon category in order for dA to be allowed to use it. Well, guess what. I just found another emoticon of mine in there. :lmao:

O.o by nillemotes Wow > Confused
:sigh: by nillemotes Sadness > Sympathy > Pity

It's a rather pleasant surprise to find something that has been official for 2-3 years already.

So SparklyDest has decided to run a set of monthly challenges this year. It's kinda like the EmoticonOpus, only it'll hopefully be maintained on a regular basis, it's run by one person only, and it's monthly instead of weekly which gives you plenty of time to feel inspired and get some time over to create art.

Themes
Pirates! - January 29th
Sparkles! - February 27th

Head over to SparklyDest for more information and rules.

I'll try to get my Photoshop sorted out soon so I can create some piraty goodness for the challenge, but if I fail to reach the deadline I will try to make a pirate eventually anyway. I will of course make a chat-friendly companion to :ahoy: by darkmoon3636. Did I mention I like chat-friendly emoticons?

I browsed 3,000 emoticons yesterday to pick out feature worthy chat-friendly emoticons submitted in January. With still 10 days to go I'll probably have to browse 1,000-2,000 more. Joy! Invader :happytard: by nillemotes
