Smileys allowed in game chat

Post by ManBungalow »

Concise description:
  • :!: Yay smiley
  • Allows smileys to be made in a game chat
  • Smiley selection box (such as the one we see when posting a reply etc) is accesible in a game
Specifics:
  • Just the same as we have in the forum, but in the game :o
  • I use smileys all of the time 8-)
  • We could also have a function which allows for the in-game smileys to be turned on/off (for those with slow computers etc)
This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • By making games more interesting
  • Allowing more epxression (reactions etc)
  • :!: There's no stopping me now

The forum can manage it...
Maybe we can have a "turn smileys on/off" button ??

Sure it would... You've got a bunch more (albeit, small) images to deal with which requires more resources to handle, ect. And, you gotta remember, 10 1kb images require a lot more power than 1 10kb image. But, really, as long as nobody spammed the chat with them you should be good...

Also - remember that the smiley images are bigger than the text - so would change the spacing of the text adversly.
