Some suggestions: Youtube embedded on forum & new emoticons

These will have already been suggested buttt...

Youtube Links
Many links are youtube links on this forum. I'm not sure what the reason is behind not wanting to put them in, but there are some places where it should be at least enabled to embed videos. The Music forum for instance. Many threads have youtube links and its annoying having to navigate away from this site (and also, keeps traffic on this site). Another place is spam because, well, its spam. Its not needed anywhere else really so just these two places would be cool. It wouldnt drain forum resources, and is hardly a bad addition. In fact, ive seen this suggested many times (just cant remember the reason why.

NEW EMOTICONS!!
I go on a well known student forum from time to time and see so many different images! Theyre vastly funnier than ours. can we please have some additions please. Here are some:

thats just some of them. Any other suggestions?

Also, i dislike this roll eyes one :rolleyes: it indicates annoyance when it sometimes means cheekiness..

anyway, that is all :)

Interesting suggestions :D

I personally like the youtube one however I think General Management have reasons behind not wanting this to be implemented (I may be wrong, but that was the decision made last time).

In terms of new emoticons I will talk with Garion and try and find some attractive new emoticons which will look nice on the new skins.

Thanks for the suggestions :D

i wish i knew the reason :'(

but in regards to emoticons, i cant see it taking up too much space on a server anyway, but also, how many times are the furni ones actually used? I mean i rarely see it used, maybe because i dont venture into the rare forums :P habbos not my thing

I think the furni ones are used a lot in rare values reports. We have no issues with adding new emoticons and I've been talking to Garion, we are interested in having our own unique emoticons created, but we'd like them to look super awesome on our new VB4 skins which are coming very soon.

omg, id be interested in doing some, so long as i get to see the new super awesome VB4 skins so i can er... know what to make them look like and not just so i can see them before everyone else does.. ;D

Garion and I are gonna discuss it at the weekend when we have less work (I have an exam tomorrow for instance:P)

I presume you will see the skins before we need emoticons, as the skins are coming very very soon.

Also i've found these for you:

http://www.habboxforum.com/showpost....4&postcount=78

Which shows the answer this time may not be a no, as I couldn't find a Jin response and Sammeth's posts seemed quite on the fence, so if a lot of people want this and Jin & Sam are willing to consider it, it's possible it'll get put through this time, but I doubt it if it hasn't met approval before :P

hawwwt whens vb4 gonna be installed?! you best give me insider info ;l

shall i create a poll? Actually, can you edit this to add a poll? and change the thread title or something,

Question:
Should youtube embedding be available in the music and spam forum?

Answers:
Yes
No

:)

Added, although, remember: a poll doesn't mean everything.

We need words from Sammeth and Jin too ;)

oh i know, :P, it was just that in the links you gave, nvr mentioned saying he cant see a majority, only 2 people more that wanted it, and you mentioned if loads of people wanted it then it may be considered. anyway, thanks :)

youtube embedding would be cool. If it wasn't allowed in signatures, didn't auto play, and there was a disable youtube setting in user options that would be awesome (yn)
