Welcome to Big Boards. Big Boards at one time offered the Zathyus network our long famous Resource Archives, our extensive search indexes, and our info-packed resource forums. Eventually, these were made redundant by upgrades to the documentations and expanded search features added to the ZetaBoards software, and this forum then lost relevancy and subsequently became inactive.

Our team then embarked on a new project called Planet Nexus, where a bold new experiment in forum promotion is taking place. We call it nexworking. NexusTree offers social networking pages for forums in a fully automated format. Your NexusTree page is created instantly when your join the nexus. Find out more by visiting Planet Nexus, and become part of the nexworking revolution.

Welcome to BB's Smilie Search Challenge #2.

You will have 4 days to find the best welcome smilie and post it in this topic. At the end of the challenge we will have a vote on who has found (or made) the best one. Your smilie must contain at least one recognizable smilie face "expression" and not exceed (within reason :) ) a 60px size (either width or height). You may make multiple entries.

Please keep in mind that a smilie is not just any graphic....it has to convey an expression or emotion through it's designs. If your entry is rejected, it will be because: 1. it didnt' fulfill the objective of the challenge. 2. It is not really a smilie. For our purposes, we'll go by this definition:
Quote:
 
The smiley comes in a number of different forms, although the classic yellow round face is still popular a number of different styles have been created. The smiley in web terms is now related more to a small static or moving avatar, which represents an expression of one's feelings.


Deadline for entries is 11:59pm Sunday, August 24 forum time (CDST or -5 GMT)

The winner of this smilie challenge will receive a credit award of 300 BB credits.

sorry, that's way too big to qualify.

You could re-submit it as something in this size range though...

I think we are going to have to put a size limt on the smilies, since we are not restricting entries to images that contain the traditional round smilie face.

How about 60px? We can allow some leeway for signs and added words etc., but I think t really be classified as a smilie, these images have to stay pretty small.

yes, you may enter more than one. I've amended the rules with the size and entry information. :)


[Sorry Chireru...that one is not going to qualify unless by some chance CODA is Klingon for "welcome". :D ]
