Would now also be the time to collect together the other slimies and/or produce some more - any thoughts on any FAQ realted ones? Like a slimie with a light bulb over its head??
________________ Dracusis: I think we should ask Slime about that. After all, their his babies. Although, as mentioned above. One thing that has kind annoyed me about da cute little slimies is that they break the line height in a prargraph of text. Maybe they could be smaller, maybe the line-heights could be bigger. Again, just some general suggestions.
________________ kuckus:
I think it would be a good idea to add align="absmiddle" to the slimies's img tags to make the surrounding text appear in the middle of the line as it is in the Asylum. (Currently, it sits on the bottom of the line.) But as Dracusis said, it would be even better to find a way of having a constant line height, though I couldn't think of one yet (an increase of the overall line height would look as odd as smaller slimies...).
______________ Slime:
Yes, back when Doc Ozone asked me to create the slimes, I faced the problem that they'd be too big for the text. They are right now about as small as they can possibly be without it being impossible to see what their expressions are. The problem really is that point on top. Nothing I can really do about it. But you get used to it after a bit, as long as they're set valign="absmiddle". So just waiting for that.
As for more? I suppose I wouldn't mind making a few more. I'd sort of prefer that I did it if anyone did... I don't mind when people go ahead and make their own for fun, that's cool, but if they're going to be in regular use, I'd like to make them so that they fit what slimes should and always have looked like. =) You know, you draw one character over and over for years, there becomes a right and a wrong way to do it.
So, if Doc and TP are willing to integrate new slimies, come up with expressions that you'd like to see and let me know!
1. An enlightenment slimie with a lightbulb popping up over their head (a bit like the puzzled one with the question mark).
2. A check the FAQ slimie - possible a slimie with an open book in front of it.
______________________ Slime:
Probably best to also explain what text you think should *trigger* the slimie, for instance :enlightened: or !

___________________ Suho1004: OK, OK, I've been thinking about this, and how about these:
:tired: maybe a guy with half closed eyes, bags underneath (or maybe just a guy with closed eyes and "z"s?)
:angel: a slimie with a halo and an innocent look (kind of partial to this one myself)
:devil: well, if we've got an angel...
:greengills: Slimie, green around the gills. Ready to spew. :green: Slimie green with envy. :gold: A solid gold Slimie. When someone deserves an extra special slimie. irate: Slimie as a pirate. When wantonly pirating someone's words/style/etc.. in an effort at humor or poking fun. :rusty: A rusty slimie when doing something you haven't done for ages, or when commenting on crappy work by someone who's done better. :wizard: Slimie with a wizard cap and magic wand. When commenting on something particularly magical.
That's it off the top of my head.
