Tue, 13 Feb 2007, 16:55
Jayenkai	Wednesday Workshop #087 : The Smiley Challenge Time until Deadline Week : 14 February 2007 The Reason : Suggested by Skypenguin The Challenge : This week, use the site's collection of smilies in some kind of game. Extra Info You may use as few or as many of the smilies as you want to. Obviously, you can also include other art, too! The whole pack of smilies is available here Weekly Rules/How to Enter You have until Tuesday Night/Wednesday Morning 00:00 BST to submit your levels. ^ See Deadline Link! ^ Wed.Workshop is at SoCoder.co.nr. If you can read this, you're probably already there! Stick your entry underneath this post, leaving a link to your exe or the source of your game, or whatever. (I'll get round to allowing uploads sometime, honest!) If you can't figure it out, or have a really rubbish server, send it to Jayenkai@Gmail.com and I'll stick it straight onto the SoCoder (Official Wed.Workshop) site. Entries will be collected during the week, and entered into next week's voting. (If there are any entries..) All entries will be entered into voting which will take place if there's more than one entry.. Please try to keep all entries within small file sizes. 2Mb is the average maximum for files. Additional Rules are available at the SoCoder (Official Wed.Workshop) site, under the list of previous workshops. Last Week's Games Only I entered this workshop, but which is better.. A Speedboat, or a Snake? There's only one way to find out! Vote!! Comment on the entries, and don't forget to leave votes. The game with the highest rating at the end of the week is declared the winner. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

shroom_monk	\|moan\| Since all of the smilies were converted from GIF to PNG, they have all been squeezed into the same size of picture, so they are either in pictures larger than they are, or are distorted (in the case of SHRUG and YEAY). \|moan\| -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Jayenkai	Have they? checks Sorry, I didn't notice! Irfanview usually does a better conversion job... .. ... Aaah, I left the Advanced Options on. No idea what I must've been doing before, to leave "Squisho" mode on! File fixed -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Phoenix	Do we have to use the smilies on this site? They're so small, I want to make my own, bigger smilies.
Wed, 14 Feb 2007, 06:53
shroom_monk	They're not that small if you use 640x480 screen resolution like me... -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Jayenkai	You have to use the smilies from the site. Feel free to resize them, if you absolutely need to. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

power mousey	how about some depressies, jokies, angries, saddies, and even the weirdies and some pyschoties too. cheers

shroom_monk	Well, I guess all of those words apply to what we define 'smilies' as. Our 'smilies' are not really 'smilies' at all. They are a mixture of all that. -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

power mousey	and the mushroomies too?

Sun, 18 Feb 2007, 10:21
shroom_monk	Eh? It's 640x480 screen resolution. I'm not sure what's causing that... \|edit\| But the background colour is blue... \|edit\| \|edit\| Anyone else had this problem? \|edit\| -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Sun, 18 Feb 2007, 12:50

skypenguin	Noooo - my ww entry is officially mucked up - and I don't think I will enter now because i've lost the original file. So GO SHROOM - I take back my comment from earlier.
