Actually I like the idea of using little pictures to represent our post count.  IMO roman numerials aren't keeping with the geekness level here.  Greek == geek, Roman == not geeky enough


It's not supposed to be geeky! It's supposed to be insane!

HURRAH FOR HEX ANYWAY

>hex, but instead of 0-9a-f we need an intricate system of smilies to represent the digits.
I like this one the best. :) What better way to utterly confuse the uninitiated and look kewl at the same time?

As for the smilies, give me a list of smilies you think we should use.  Should be more then 10 of them and should be in order

10 is the limit for a post. [insert bitching about lame arbitrary limits] Of course, if you're planning on changing the smiley for every 100 posts or so, it would be more fun to have one smiley for each digit of the post count.

Think base X with the smilies being the digits.  And off course It won't be limited to 10 smilies.  Off course even if it was base 10 having 10 smilies as your post count would mean you spam waaaaayyyyyy too much

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Still a couple details holding the RN up.  Mainly dealing with the bar over symbols for 5k+

Attached cuz it's uber commented...

(psst...why aren't cpp files allowed as an attachment?)
