Smilies. I like 'em sir, yes I do. But this doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement.
Take the , or embarrassment smilie, for example. Looks a bit too much like the 'angry' smilie, wouldn't you say? For the record, I'd like to see an 'ouch' smilie:
><
O
An ASCII version, for your perusal. Would've centred the 'O', but couldn't, y'see?
Where real change is needed is the Message Icon list. That uniform shade of blue just isn't expressive enough. As an act of protest, I have boycotted the choice of icons granted when writing a new post, so this thread starter will sport the default 'paper list' icon. Born to be wild, I was. 
Also, I have read genuine complaints that posters (people, not the wall decorations) have not been able to alter their message icons when editing their posts. A minor, perhaps even insignificant, quibble, yes; given the extent of the tragedies we see daily on the news. But there you go.
Well, what d'you think? Like to see any smilie/icon reform going on? Write here, or forever hold your piece...sorry, peace.

Speaking on behalf of Markos and myself, I believe that the smilies are fine the way they are; naturally, there will be those that disagree with us as is the nature of anything in life.
Again, we don't see nay reason to make any changes right now, but if those who would like to see changes make suggestions not only what they think should be replaced but what they believe they should be replaced with -- a process that has already begun -- we'll listen.

How difficult will it be to add couple smileys?

Replacing existing smilies is one thing, but adding them is another.
In addition, we have other plans in the works that could easily interfere with any such plans in this regard -- you'll see.
