August 8: We Need New Emoticons!--WINNER POSTED

Aug 8, 2011

    1. When I post on DoA, I like using smiley faces.:)

      And winking faces. ;)

      And…well, I really would loooooove to make a puppy growling face, but there’s no emoticon on DoA for me to use. And I can’t even use an emoticon to pout about it, because there’s no pouting one either!

      Here’s where you come in! I’ve managed to sneak the blank DoA emoticon away from the mods. Here it is:

      [​IMG]

      I want you to make some new emoticons for DoA! You don't need to make a full set, just an expression or two that you think would be fun. Upload them to your favorite hosting venue (Photobucket, etc) and then post them into this thread. Simple animation is okay as well. I might be able to sneak some of my favorites into the permanent emoticon lists on the forum, and I think I have a prize for my very favorite.

      You have until August 10. Get creative!
       
    2. If we don't meet the requirements to participate in a contest, can we still make some emoticons and just not be eligible for a prize?
       
    3. aha my entries ^^

      *EDIT*

      [​IMG][​IMG]

      :P and O_o
       
    9. Just out of curiosity how many are we allowed to make?
       
    10. Wow, you guys are getting busy! I like what I see so far. Just a reminder: We need the finished emoticons to be the same size as the blank, i.e. the current ones used on the forum.

      To answer some questions:

      1. You can play along even if you aren't eligible for the prizes. This is more about having fun than about prizes.
      2. You can make as many as you'd like!

      I also have a great update! The extremely kind ShadowLink has offered runner up prizes for second and third place! A huuuuuuuge puppy thank you to her!
       
    11. Thanks for the clarification Truffle :)
       
    12. Oooh, fun!! I did a couple. ^^; Maybe if I get some more ideas I'll do a few more.

      [​IMG] = XP

      [​IMG] = Unimpressed
       
    13. Ok, here are a few I put together.

      [​IMG] No means no

    14. Fun idea! I tried a few... I might do more later when I have more time to play!
      In order : "peeved", "proud", and "oh no! what have I done to my doll!?"

      [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

      And to note, I am not eligible for any prizes :P

      ETA: I am also happy to clean up/readd transparency to any you pick to use in the permanent emotes if they need it.
       
    16. I did similuar to NY_Kitty, I did Truffle and Farinelli.

      [​IMG]

      I can turn the images into gifs if neccesary later.
       
    17. Here are mine, Truffle! I know I would use them! *grin* Sorry I don't have a photo program that does transparent backgrounds.

      Hehe... It's mostly faces that I use and have wished that there was an emoticon for them...
      Even if I don't win, I hope someone else do these faces so I'll have a little icons that I can use instead of just text form :3

      Thank you~!
       
    19. Here's one for when you're feeling growly:
      [​IMG]
      And here's one for the pouting, but you don't need to pout now that there's a growl!

      Or if you don't
