Too big, too small or just right?

[Nedenis]

Nice idea to add these smileys, it makes formation discussion alot easier :)
My formation:

:vik: - :swm: - :spm:
:gun: -EMPTY SPOT- :arc:
:sha: - :can: - :mnk:

Looking at that I think it's about the right size

[PuppyPumper]

Just as stated above, I think these are fantastic for party arrangement discussions.

Ah, it took me a couple of minutes to figure out how to reply.. but it's quite easy, and I do really like your smilies for formation, as already stated..This is my formation.. At lvl 37 hopefully i can add a bt soon..

Thanks. Took a little while in paint.NET to get them all done but I think they turned out pretty great. I personally like the names on the classes, I think that turned out pretty nicely, too.

The sizes, if I remember, are 73x89. ONE of all of those icons had a problem: they were 73x88 originally, and they were missing an entire line of pixels at the bottom. That means that I actually had to redraw the bottom line of pixels on one of the character portraits.

You get a cookie if you all can guess which one of them that is! I'll give you all a hint: it was a ranged unit.

[Demon]

mmm i guess Princess? =x

[diablolover2]

I'm guessing.. gunner ..

[nothingxs]

Not even close. :)

[Demon]

how about shaman!!

[Aryela]

I rather like the smilies myself. I'm sure you'll change them a billion times though. ;)

My formation:

:spm::swm::swm:
:arc::spm::femalehero: (spear main)
:mnk::exo::sha:

Exo's still a baby, so in the back he goes!

I guess it would be cool to somehow identify which class your main was in the pictures, but that would add another large amount of pictures, it might be worth it though. Or just some smaller smilies so you could put a little axe or gun at the very begining.

In fact just putting in some generic little things like axe, gun, staff, cannon and that sort of thing would be very useful in general. then I could do:

:little gun:
:swm::swm::swm:
:malehero::gun::gun:
:exo::mnk::ora:

It wouldn't be that big a deal to just add the weapon over the picture. Just like how it says "Swordsman" over the swordsman pic.

I'd say they're the perfect size, but if possible, you should be able to write in your class for the main character somehow. I'm not sure if that's doable though =P

Maybe if you had the main portraits shorter than the others and bottom aligned so that you can type your character's class in the empty spot? Maybe that's too complicated for BBCode.

[MiaFLSurf]

I think the size is fine

[zanmatto]

Yep! The size is perfect.

[Axiom]

Hopefully ZSpirit will look into adding alternate smileys to specify a main's weapon. Or perhaps someone could open a thread suggesting the change where it can be discussed.

[Kiena]

I think it's a *little* bit too big, but it's a terrific idea, and I love that it'll be so much easier to talk about formations now. :)

Very creative,loving it

My dream formation!

You might try moving the witch to the exo's position, and then move the exo behind the witch. An exo on the front lines is gonna be top priority for your opponent, especially with so many casters in your party.

[Jimsta]

Yea, I like these smileys, gj. :)
Also there are the normal smileys so you can always mix em up. :p

[bddblade]

Just right :)

Since most formation talk will happen in specific main-based forums, you don't need to specify what kind of main you're rocking (since we'll know by what forum we're in).

When it's in general locations, it doesn't take much to just precede your formation with "Sword main" or whatever. There's no reason to make 14 smileys for each sex of main instead of just 2 and letting you type a little.

But well you can do that when your really free,and im sure the community will lend a hand

[Locksley]

Archer, er prophet, cannoneer, arty, inventor, jani? I practically guessed everything...so which one of the above had the issue?

By the way, i think the pics are just fine, i love it, and i might see myself preferring this forum over atlantica forums. this idea is just genius!

[Flexor]

atlantica forum hurts my eye,too blueish,this forum is way better,not to mention merc smileys =D

[Bilge]

atlantica forum hurts my eye,too blueish

Yeah, this forum isn't in the least bit blue.

Owai~

What do you mean "your eye", anyway. Are you a cyclops?

[meloku2]

Yea, they are just right for me, gj. :D

[Newell]

I have never seen anything like it before. A++

[StarElf]

They may be a bit on the largish side if they get used alot in posts, but since the majority likes them as is I suppose it's all good, just my 2 cents =)

[emor88]

it's jst right to me :)
thanks
