Suggestion: PSU element icons as emoticons

[Kietrinia]

Just had this odd idea that might work.

Would it be possible to add all the element icons from PSU into the emoticon selection? Like the fire, ice, light, dark, neutral, etc icons.

The reason I'm suggesting this is for people who put up tradelists or want to mention weapons that they have. It'd certainly add some color to some otherwise boring lists. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

Example of how it'd look (borrowing PSUPedia's icons for this)
- Double Agito - 20% http://psupedia.info/images/c/cc/GroundIcon.png
- Ank Dedda - 32% http://psupedia.info/images/6/60/DarkIcon.png

Of course, it can be shrunk down to fit in-line more nicely.

It'd be possible. The only thing I would need to implement it is a decent set of elemental icons.

Hmm, sounds like a request. I'll get on it then. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

Edit: All done~

They look very nice, but I think those particular icons are too small. The dimensions (or something close to) you used in your original post would probably work better.

[Kietrinia]

I made them that small so they wouldn't add the extra space at the top of a sentence. Fonts are 10 pixels tall on this particular forum, so they'd line up perfectly.

Those look good but I agree with Ryna, they can afford to be a slight bit bigger. The only problem you might run into with the smaller ones is people might not know what they're looking at. Some people run pretty hueg resolutions and may not have quick Magnifier access.

Otherwise, looks good.

I've created entries for new element icons. You can invoke them with the following codes:

:dark:
:light:
:fire:
:ice:
:ground:
:lightning:
:neutral:

For the moment, large icons are being used. If they don't work out, they can be replaced fairly easily.
