Default New Smileys?

Is there any chance of getting some new smiley's on the board? I go to another message board, and they are always adding new ones....some good, some bad. Here are a couple of my favorites:

--> Good Posting

--> Pickle

--> BS

--> IBTL

--> Sad Banana

--> StirPot


....and this one is a MUST:

Bah, they look all gimmicky.

In all honesty - time for me to play debbie downer here - but man oh man do I find those things distracting. It really detracts from the content of the post, and I find people just use them....well...because they can....

Not to mention there is a striking resemblance with your Smyth avatar.

Lol.. a few of them aren't too bad, though I want all the smilies to have the same look. Yes I'm a freak.

Lol, crap, I have not consumed enough coffee yet, what I meant to say is I dislike the dancing pickle. The sad banana is golden in both color and amusement level.

I'm with RedHot on this one. Adding more smilies is just gonna increase the amount of "useless" posts. People get pissed off now, wait until you have to sift through every third or fourth post with nothing but a dancing pickle or a sad banana

Considering there is already around 60 emoticons and the threads aren't riddled with them I don't think it's going to become much a problem.

And if a dancing pickle isn't funny I don't want to know what is.

EDIT: Also the dancing lock amuses me immensely.
