Yeah, that's precisely what i'd like to see, some easier access for different more rare smileys.

Hey, we could probably get one smiley to do the job of both.
The exact reason i put one after the other was to try and get that reaction out of someone, but i didn't expect you to be the one to bite!

I also put sarcasm afterwards too to so i could get someone to ask "were you being sarcastic"?

That'd be cool. Not sure what it would look like, though.
I've seen one or two, it kind of looks like someone raising their eyebrows and rolling their eyes in a very "i'm unimpressed" in sort of way.

I suspected it was a set-up, but it was too hard to resist!

Well, hopefully the mod team can put something together so Marc can impliment it the next time he's around.

-Just remove repeated smilies altogether.
As I said the Skyscrapercity forum which is also powered by VBulletin (or whatever the layout company is called) got some real juicy ones that would be fun to have in here as well. Perhaps they are made by VBulletin and can be added easily?

This is for sarcasm I guess. You say something that sounds serious and add in the end - which basically means: yeah, yo mamma!

Re: More smilies......please!

Cool, having easy access to that when posting here would be good...now all we need is the Pro Bush smiley.

If we got that i think i'd agree with Speasy, Trips, Noa and co that we don't need anymore, just maybe a slight shuffle of what is on the "more" section and what is in the main post area.
