Smiley Designer (IDEA)

I'm currently working on a mini project that'll allow anyone to design their own smileys pretty easily.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

This app was designed to provide those creative genii, who may not necessarily have the software to create good smileys, with something that would aid them in creating a good looking, custom smiley.

Showcase(Smiley's created with this program):

By rhyst1

By YoshiDudeEx

By Doom Mouse
Current Features:
Mix and match different costumes, eyes, mouths etc.
Drawing capabilities, with a color picker, as well as alpha levels!
Save as a png file(You can share your creations with the forum if you upload them to an imagehost.)
Choose preview size from 1x to 20x(default is 20.)

Screenshot
View:
view in browser
Download:
Mediafire
Easy-Share

If you want to run the swf file, instead of the exe, you must install the flash player projector (stand alone player).

Just a smiley designer. Mix and match, pretty much, but you'll be able to draw too.

It works, but it's very primitive. It's just mix and match.

I second this. This should be your priority right now. Everything else looks fine.

I   think you should make the preview a lot smaller...

And whats with the color picker thing? :S

I like it, it tells me what pixels to use in art XD
It also lets you create the dumbest smileys ever:

To Kingjamstar: Nice idea, I'm going to implement that and have a go at the ability to save your smileys.

To Alex: I'll see if I can have a size chooser for the preview. The color picker there isn't just for seeing the hex of a color. I'm going to be adding the ability to draw, so you're not limited to just mixing & matching.

Thanks KRAZYMAN50. Could you upload your smiley to some sort of image host like imgplace.com or something? I can't see your image right now. Thanks. I'm glad you like it by the way.

Great idea, I'm waiting for you to add the 16x16 and ability to save the smiley, I made a smiley but it looks bad in 16x16 (cause I resized it in paint )...

+1 rep to you, darkday!

I worked 1 hour on this concept, please take a look at it:

Other functions (when clicked on < or >)
Defaults: Border, Filling, Eyes, Mouth, Costume
Draw: Fill, Pick, Line

Note
The font I've been used here can be found here (I used the one in .fon format).

AWESOME IDEA. It'd be even awesome-er (Not a word? IT IS NOW ) if it were in the actual game.

Very nice. It looks really clean, and uncluttered compared to my current design. The only things is that the colorpicker I'm using is a component and I can't find a way to theme it. I'll try to implement your design once I've finished with additional features.

Re: Smiley Designer (IDEA)

I dont think its a good idea to let you draw your own smileys,

I like it better what darkdays version is now, possibly with more attributs (headphones, beard)

Ingame idea was bad, I know (I made it because I was bored). But in the normal design idea, there are all the functions as the current one have (sorry for my bad English), but I just added a few more.

Re: Smiley Designer (IDEA)

New Updated Version:
Features:
Drawing with Alpha
Preview Size
Blocks/Items

Upcoming Features:
Saving as image.

Alpha v.1.1
At Echo, I'm not crazy about the idea, and also this is gonna be constantly updated, so every time I update this, that means you'll have to update your link/embed.
