Mate let's be honest, people don't care, DU won't do shit, most users don't see a problem with the current icon. If it bothers you that much, use the redirector add-on and replace it with a thing you like. You're just throwing your time and effort into the bin.

AFAICT he's just doing it for learning/practice, I don't think he cares about all the negative feedback and probably likes it.

DU did say out loud that he wanted to update some buttons. He's a man of many mysteries but it doesn't seem like him to blatantly (and publicly) lie to a friendly stranger's face to waste their time for no reason.

He's a self-loving pseudo-artist who spams the whole forum with his mediocre shit, puts probably thousands upon thousands of hours in, but doesn't realise the talent simply isn't there.

I wonder if the funnies would look better if the jaw stayed in place and the whole upper head moved. Flapping jaw on motionless head has a strange look to it. Probably too low res for it to look natural either way I guess.

Mate let's be honest, you're an untalented, self-important hack.

There, ftfy.
Why are you so butthurt about this guy?

Read the last couple of pages, it's hard to miss.

In case you're too lazy or you don't get it: the normal approach is to create a button and post it. If it's good enough and fills a niche not covered yet, the administration might consider adding it; if so, great honour! But not this freak, he must insult the existing buttons he wants to replace first. And not only does he want to replace them, he wants to replace them with Codex troll versions! Sounds great, right? But now DU has to personally confirm first that he's theoretically interested, because our artist's time is valuable. And then this cretin comes up with the dozens of shit-versions you couldn't tell are Codex trolls nor that they're supposed to replace the lol button?

Yeah, fuck this asshole!

This laughing button
rating_lulz.gif
is total shit, and :lol: is even worse. I very much welcome Zizek's efforts to rapeplace it with a codexian troll, and hope he continues to improve the animation until it feels right. Btw, the monocle troll is already very good (but perhaps the monocle itself should be of a different color, to more easily differentiate it?)

Most of the other buttons I would leave alone, they're fine as they are. Maybe the crying one should be redrawn as well, but it's not as atrocious as the default laughing ones.

Strap Yourselves In

This one is indeed brilliant.

Next set:
P. Removed the teeth, made the horns shorter. Moved the jaw instead of the full face.

Q. More frames, different timing.

R. Back to two frames, shorter horns, tongue, bigger eyes.

S. Longer chin to make it more like the original reference of the troll. Change the shape of the horns as well to better represent the troll. Also changed the eye shape for that reason.

T. Non-frowning, different head shape, different horns.

Here the eyes of R are pretty good, but it needs to be the top of the mouth that moves up and down - not the bottom. Take a look at the yellow laughing smileys:

Your notes/feedback would be helpful and appreciated.

i have poor vision so they all look the same. That's poor design, buttons should stay color-coded.

remove buttons alltogether!
