Hi. I want to use the great emoticons from CivFanatics in my own site. How do I go about this? I know it should be easy for simple :) 's and :mad: 's but what about classic animated ones, such as :crazyeye: or :ninja: ? Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

You could ask TF for the whole package(s), so that you don´t have to download each individual smiley.

The image tag is then one way to implement then on your site, if you want more dynamic implementation, then you need to write a bit more code, possible in javascript or php, among others.

But the image tag is fine for just putting them somewhere on your page and leaving them there.
:D

Then use the HTML image code to show the picture (like any picture)

*cough cough*standards :p

Thanks for the smileys, Civ I addict. One question, does anyone know the progamming behind animated smileys? I'd really like to use them! Thanks!

I don´t know what you mean by programming?! :rolleyes:

Animated smiley are animated GIFs. GIF allows a picture to have several layers, those can be shown simultaneously or in a certain order.

They are the same as regular smileys, 1 gif image...they are just a tad bigger but treated the same. If you want to make one, however, that is another story.

ehm, just put 'em there like any ordinary gif or jpg (like in bfl's post) and the browser should display them animated automatically.
