Young Writers Society

A couple of minor changes that will nonetheless be pretty noticeable:

- In order to get the full fifty points for a post, your post must now be at least 200 words long. You will still get at least ten points though. I made this change after some users requested it, and also after I noticed that posts I was making such as "That is so cool!" were getting 40 points.

- 120 new smilies, so that if you get find the right emoticon, you just got problems*

- You can also [s]strike out text[/s], but it [s]needs fixing[/s] it's fixed, just click on 's' to strike out text

I might also be adding new avatar selections since they're getting a bit thin now. If I do, what avatars would you like to see?


[s]*sorry Snoink, I looked for a pig smilie, but couldn't find it[/s]

:pig: (: pig :, but without the spaces)

and my new favorite...
:monkey: (: monkey :, but again without the spaces)

.....
Yeah... Alright... I can live with this...
I suppose... I mean, wow 120? Now niteowl will be giving so many gifts...

The first change is definitely useful.

<---- You have to wonder when this will ever be used, though.

But, still cool!

Yes!... Fencing smilie! ^_^

I suppose there's no way to invert them, so to speak, so that they can fence eachother?

I love the chicken smiley! *huggles*

My fencing smilie will help your chicken smilie catch the chicken. (...and why exactly are we catching a chicken?)

Thanks for the new smilies, by the way, Nate. ^_^

If you have a GIF animation program, you can save the smilie onto your comp, invert it using the animator, save the new pic somewhere on the net (eg. www.photobucket.com or www.ripway.com) and then [img] it onto the site. If you don't have a GIF animator, then I'm sure you could download one from the net somewhere.


Or you could just have one of them stabbing the other in the back...

Whee. Neat stuff. Gotta love smilies.

Wow. That's just gross. Ew.

Holy elephant on a unicycle! There's strikeout! And emoticons! And I'm talking in exclamation marks!

AHHH!

This is so awesome.



*glee*

The smilies are awesome. vs . You could build a whole good-evil war with smilies. Cool.

It's a good idea about the 50 pts = 200 words or up. I agree on that.

If you're looking for some new and intersting artwork, I suggest you ditch some of the Anime (they're fun, but they get a little old) and try to get your hands on some Roger Dean artwork. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!! Those would be truly amazing avatars. Just a thought (that you really should listen to.)

Just made a new section called artwork and added about six of his works into it.

Because chickens are evil! *runs after chickens with a vengeance*



my fear of moving objects on the net has just been reinforced, btw.

I love having so many choices.

- This one brings back fond memories. . . *sigh* (Dusky might remember the stick poking wars from another forum we used to be on. . . Those were fun. . .)

- This one is crazy, man. . .

Oh, anyway, good decisions on the smilies.

I remember. I was just thinking about them actually... *goes off to poke the people on her friend's list* *grins*

I do so love the smilies....
