Ok, how does one acquire those and put it in posts?

And where can I get that arching eyebrow one, it's perfect for me...

Erm, you've lost me on the arching eyebrow one. See if you can track down where its used, and reply-with-quote on whoever used it previously. Then just copy their code.

I don't understand the banned smilies at all. What are they meant to mean? I can think of a couple of ideas, but they would never be used.

Do a websearch for smilies and emoticons.

the only word smiley that does not have a terminating colon -- the punctuation mark you scatalogical fool!

IIRC it is because the smile code can only have 10 characters, and :surrender fills all 10, with no space for the closing :. All the other smilies have <= 9 characters, so have room for the last :

There needs to be a smiley representing stunned silence. It would be useful in many situations.

You need to visit the CivII forums, they get used all the time. Well, some of them:

We need a :Wutang: smiley, but Stefu's been lax in his job duties of late.

that close enough?

Sadly, I am incapable of seeing animated smilies on this computer. They're eternally stuck in one position. (Makes it impossible to tell the difference between a rant or spam smilie, f'rinstance).

Awesome work IR.
