The >:D smiley looks like Thufir Hawat with really big eyebrows. :rofl: 


The ::) doesn't actually roll eyes anymore and I agree that the   :angel:  angel looks like he has a loaf of bread on it's head. :P

If we're changing default smiles, I want to find a set where the emoticons are all Justin Bieber smilies.  Especially want to see Justin Bieber with bread on his head. :whistle:

One big problem I have with them is that they don't match the other ones.  :twak: is yellow,  ;) is orange.

That and they looks silly, the   ::) is definitely a downgrade.

Given that reverting has more than all the other options put together, and more than double the next option, is there a reason we haven't gone back to the old ones?
