I just made a little something for everyone to see and will hopefully enjoy. I know it's a little early but I'm too excited to wait. Your eyes aren't mistaken!, that is a Koda emoticon. ;D. This is my first try at making an emoticon, and I have three others here as well: I pretty happy with how they came out, all though I can't seem to be able to represent the hair of the top of Koda's head right. Let me know what you think and if there is anyway I could make them better. Enjoy and a have a happy holiday!

AH! That's SO awesome! I blinked a few times, and knew there were different icons floating around the page, but I didn't notice it until I read the forum. I'll keep an eye out for more, Remmus! ^_^

Thanks liefgreen!, but these are not official emoticons. I have since decided that I needed to rework koda to better represent him. I can't take much credit though as I based the design off the Kenai emoticons that already are on here, so the credit should go to Spectrum for creating such an awesome set in the first place. Yep, that's koda again. . The trickiest part is getting the timing right though, I think that I will have to work on that part. Maybe if I stop watch and watched spectrum's emoticons.

Well, you can do it! I understand that Spectrum should get 75% of the credit , but they're still fascinating! Keep it up! ^_^

Those are really cute, Remmus! ;D Nice animation on the crying one.
They compliment the Kenai set nicely. ^^

Thanks Epesi, I'm still relatively new to photoshop ;D. It took quite a few different tries to get the perfect koda look, but I'm pretty pleased with the results on that last one. Currently I'm trying to get different positions for the ears, muzzle, and many other things so I can get more fluid expression. I plan on redoing the the previous set with the new version of koda and I kind of hoped maybe when I'm finished that we could use them on the Awaken As A Bear boards along with the ones that spectrum made. I do realize this is most likely not going to happen, but I can hope . I am worried though that not everyone can see koda correctly due to the the colors I used which are not completely web safe. I did try, but koda's colors didn't match any of them. If I get real good, I'm thinking about a set that includes Kenai and Koda together, but that's a far off idea right now and not a realistic goal.

Those are really cool! I think you did a very nice job on all of them. It would be nice to see those as part of the board's smilies.
Can't wait to see your finished set. ;D

It's been a few days, and Christmas and all I haven't had a lot of time to work on the Koda emoticons, but I think I have the final version here, now the only thing let to do is make some other angles of it and animations. Anyone who tells you that making a set of emoticons is easy is Lying! I gone through several remakes already trying to get Koda just right. So... without anymore blabbering from me here is Koda. Let me know what you think about the color scheme since I pulled some of them directly from pictures of the movie and if the neck band on koda is too elaborate. I do have some simpler versions of it still. When I'm done (...that's if I ever stop modifying the basic form ) I plan on putting them a website to permantly host them. Maybe I go with deviantart since that's where a lot of you post your art. I will put a link in my signature to a page that provides the url for all of the images for easy copy and pasting for posts and such.

Very nice job. I think my favorite might be But I really like them all. I'll definitely be using them around the site. I really like too. Any plans on fixing that up for this set also? Anyways, nice job again! I think they fit well with the Kenai set ;D
