Let's Make Smilies!

Suggested by Geo and seconded by GodKing.

Now, I'm willing to install this, but I need a code and hovertext.  Post your suggestions, please...

[Spacy]

what about just GuyFawkes, or perhaps VforVendetta?

[Unorthodox]

How long is allowed? 

I'm merely remarking on the paradox of asking a masked emoji for hovertext. 

[Buster's Uncle]

I think the code can be .  No idea how long a hovertext is allowed - but we need to figure out a function/meaning for the thing, and/or come up with a good joke...

Hackjob?

[Buster's Uncle]

Oh, I think I put more into it than that...

[Unorthodox]

Well you didn't like my paraphrasing above...

Some quotes that could fit:

There are no coincidences
Symbols are given power by people.
Artists use lies to tell the truth while politicians use them to cover the truth up.
There are no certainties only opportunities

[Spacy]

The truth will set you free

...I'm inclined to let the community decide on this, but I need more input/a final decision...

[Geo]

"Symbols are the key to telepathy"

Or change "telepathy" with "empathy" or "society".

[Buster's Uncle]

Ok - I'm going to go with ";v" and "Remember, remember".  Y'all should find it the last thing in the zoo.

[Buster's Uncle]

The hovertext can be changed, of course, should anyone feel strongly about it...

[Buster's Uncle]

HEY FLUX!  If Jesus Christ ever lets you swing by for a check, you'll be flattered to know that this is official at IALS forum, too.

I told 'em to feel free to steal, and they felt free.  A pity I cannot recommend the place.

SO - while I'm back on the latest smilie kick --- I always thought   -code semicolon modban- kinda looked crap.  The edges of the figure looked jagged.  The black box it freezes on to clearly display "BANNED" covered the face.
Now uploaded and installed under the code -that's semicolon ban- replacing the previous in the Zoo.  This morning I cleaned it up, fiddled the timing a little, and changed the word to a simple "BAN". 

SMF doesn't give me any crap about smilies installed and code will display, but not on the menu, which I wished for at WPC in vBulletin as Sherrif of SmilieTown; would have made the killing spree just a shunning instead, and been MUCH easier.  I set the old modban to Hidden, but the code still works and no garbage displays instead in old posts.


-On that note, I observe that members may have ANYthing installed they ask for as a hidden off-menu smilie, just meet community decency and other standards, give me whatever code you fancy and a hovertext, and it's yours.  Getting included in the [more] (zoo) menu is a higher standard. of course.  Ask away.  Supplying the actual .gif you want means (prompt) action when I'm not energetic.  -This is in addition to previous declarations that anyone can pretty much have one Official on-menu smilie if they really want it.  Something I have to make is, as always, entirely at my personal discretion, but I don't think I exactly have a record of holding out for money and sexual favors.

Ask away.
