There's really no smily here that says 'hmmmm?' or 'WTF?!?!?!?!' I'm not at all meaning to be critical, just merely making an observation.  I really like the shrugging smily, and the nodding one is gushing with the 'uh huh, I totally think so!' 
Some new, additional ones would be nice, though...I'm sure we'd find a way to use them.  |
I want one that conveys looking side to side, sneaky like, then laughing. Like "I swear, really! then laugh" Also I think there should be one of someone getting sick to their stomach, but not barfing. Maybe sticking their tongue out? And then there should just be a funny "sticking your tongue out" one, the good ol' rasberry. You know, something between the mad one and the rolls your eyes one? Also I think there should be one that's giggling, with their hand over their mouth, like "teehee, naughty" with the eyes all squinchy, like "I shouldn't be laughing, but I am!"
I like the cartoony aspect, they mostly remind me of how I would look if I made that expression. The big green grin guy I especially identify with. There should be an alternate form of the Angel, too, a snarky one, with the guy switching his eyes from side to side. Like "who, me? hehehehe".
Okay, I'm a little overboard, but I love the emoticons. Wish I could design them.
