You might find this chart I put together useful both in chat, comments, and your private messages, specifically when you want to portray your Emotions in DeviantART where words may fail you.

You can view it full-size with no blur, right HERE in a separate window by holding down the [SHIFT] key and clicking this link: www.deviantart.com/download/26…

What I did was pop-up the emoticon window, then save off that HTM as a separate file, then I wrote a program in GFA to extract out both the names and image locations of where they were by making an engine code and image sifter for the huge HTM.

Then I captured the screen in Paintshop so I could get use the eyedropper and find the correct 'DeviantART' background color levels, where it varied on each line.

Then I wrote a program to take into account both the name and image and create multiple pages that were screen-saved and I took into account the size of the proportional text for the emotion code (Arial 9 pica) and the image of the emoticon itself, across, and down, and the number of elements, and the fact I wanted to get 10 of these across.

And even THEN I had to take into account some devious (no pun intended) Emoticons were really LONG across or TALL so I had to have the program adjust the rectangles to compensate for that, additionally, and try to catch up to the right grid size on the next line.

(If you haven't yet guessed it, one job I had was writing custom databases for companies)

Anyways, you can also see maybe where I manually pasted the screenshots together if you look at it very closely. I am so GLAD Paintshop could handle a picture this size !

The ending result was one massive image as you see here. I added the appropriate copyright at the bottom, a nice little logo at the top. And there you go !

The best way to make use of this to click on the link above, to open it in a separate process, then press [ALT] TAB and return back to your browser. Then when you want to put an Emoticon in, just press [ALT] TAB again, scroll the picture up and down using your mouse wheel, find the appropriate Emoticon, press [ALT] TAB again and type out the code for it, like so: : relaxed :

Now, =IF= there is someone else that did has done all this work I already did, that would be great to know, if not, then here ya go !

If these aren't enough emoticons and expressions for you, I have several custom-made ones you can find HERE: dw817.deviantart.com/art/Teddy…

Hope This Helps !

Tools: Paintshop Pro 7, Chrome Browser, Notepad, GFABasic (Original Code)
