    Default New Smiley...fug much?

    I don't mind change. I really don't. Change can be good. Great, even. But sometimes change is bad. I think a case of "bad change" can be made for the new smileys. Aside from the fact that the size of every smiley's eyebrows have increased by a factor of 4, they're just way too big in general. I find them distracting from the text of posts. Before, they were managable. Now, not so much.

    What do you think if them?

    They're part of ongoing changes you'll see through the next day or two. Kindly hold off on any judgement calls until the changes are complete.

    What the complete changes are, you'll just have to wait and see.

    We could return to the old smilies -- I'm not opposed to that.

    Eh, I have a small rant prepared. I can wait, though.

    So if you meet me, have some courtesy, have some sympathy, and some taste. Use all your well-learned politesse, or I'll lay your soul to waste.

    That sure gets my vote!

    I really quite like the whole new look of the main CBR pages though. Much more professional looking somehow.

    These new smileys are a little creepy. Wouldn't mind the old ones back.

    Please? These suck, in size, action and design. Just yuck. I'd recommend staying away from the animated ones, myself. Too limiting in use, and most of the animated ones are just goofy (and usually not in a good way).
