why not just the ability to scale them

You mean you don't consider the smileys here big already? I mean, they're like twice as tall as text for me. I say if you really want to change things around here, you need to add small smileys.

I love the irony of adding a bunch of modern features (SVG, lightboxes, etc) to this ancient table-based forum software. MW reminds me of a tricked-out Honda Civic.

ok can we do svg smileys now? We can set them to use em sizes* so they match whatever size the font is, so to use 'big' smileys we'd just put them under a size=200 tag or whatever. This way we only need one set of smileys yet can take the advantage of having big ones.

*you'd have some css like:

Code:

img[src^=./images/smilies/] /* assuming all smileys are loaded from this folder... /
{
width: auto;
height: 1.5em; / 1.5x the font size */
}

read about the em unit here
of course idk if anyones around whos up to making the svgs. i mean i guess we wouldn't need svgs but raster images probably aren't going to look good scaled like that lol

I can work on a few, but I wouldn't want to be held responsible for all of them. They're pretty simple so I'm betting anyone with Inkscape or some @!$% will be able to help

tbh we could just do it with the current raster images and individually fill them in with SVGs if/when we get them. Hopefully seeing the raster ones scaled will motivate someone enough to make svgs for it lol.
