I fixed the background. You have to go to each frame and remove the white. You also have to tell each layer to replace the previous ones.Wooster really needs to get the new smilies up!
Also, I'm just going to throw in this trophy "smilie" I made. I don't know if they'll want to use it but it's worth a shot!

I have a hard time with faces (
) but I'll see what I can do. I just don't get the Lotta feel from it... To my sprite folder!

Edit: I made one minor change,
I added eyebrows. Once I did that I saw Lotta and didn't have to do anything else! It must have been the empty spot on here forehead that got me.

Anyway, I'll do a tweak of my own and see if I can get it looking less demonically-possessed. It's the eyes... :P

How many of the current smileys have noses and ears? Why do you think that is?

Igarashi has a bright red nose, hence needed.
The early phoenix ones aren't great and the nose contributes to that.
Mo has a clown nose, hence is a vital feature/
Shoe and Missile are animals, and they ARE resized profile pics.
Gant... where is his nose? I made part of the base with this one, and I can tell you, even at 1600x zoom, there is no nose.

Bah, this one really is impossible to do perfectly, so I went for the best possible approximation. Here's hoping this satisfies Don and the rest of you. :D
OK! I think we need to collect all the new smilies for submission together and put them in a single post, like the last time. We've waited long enough, I think. :D

Compare the two and see which one you prefer. As for the reason smilies don't usually have ears or noses, it's because they're normally too difficult to draw properly on an image that size without wrecking the clarity of the image. On rare occassions they have to be there or the sprite doesn't look right.
If you removed the ear here, it would make the hair look ridiculous... I mean, more-so than it already does, but at least this way it actually resembles the original character.
The critical elements of the original animation - the facial expressions, the hair and headband, the hand movements and the seed box - were lifted and used as a base to make this animation; however, Victor looked absolutely ridiculous without his trademark chin and the hair looked odd without the ear, so I drew them back in manually.
Whenever it makes the final product look better, not worse, particularly when it's a key element of the character's features, you have to include it or you make an inferior product. It's as simple as that.

Wooster said that he doesn't have the time right now to do that. Plus he said he has over 200 smilies if I'm correct. That would take allot of work. It would be nice, but not life or death.
If I could organize them I would. I have the time and wouldn't mind. But I can't. So it's just something we have to live with.

You're far too picky. Chop off his chin and you'll see what I mean; there really isn't any other way to do a decent Kudo smily with facial features that distinct. :P
Anyway, this leads me to my original point, which got glossed over earlier: at this point we should put together in one post all the smilies to be submitted for Wooster's benefit; that way he doesn't have to trawl through month-old posts to find everything.
If no-one has any objections, I'll collect them all together myself.

And I'm not being too picky, and I know from experience that you only improve by listening to criticisms and working on them. Look, this still looks like him but looks like a smiley. It's about knowing how much detail to add, and what to leave out.
If I were to do a Lotta of that kind, in response to Donald, I would make it look like this. Hair from sprite, face completely scratch. No nose, no ears.
It isn't perfect cos I rushed it a bit, the mouth could be a little better, But I hope it shows that you don't need a nose in smileys.

It looks better than mine!
And UP, you had that 500 thing to huh? I have like 5 or 6 posts in the Last Poster topic because of that!
Yes! We need to get all the new smilies together. I would do it but I'm afraid of getting 500 posts in a row because of errors.
Oh! One more thing UP. You Lotta looks great!

I do this kind of thing for fun; I'm not really interested in becoming especially skilled at it, but by doing enough of them that'll happen anyway. As for this:
...his face is far too round for my liking; it looks like him but it doesn't at the same time. In fact, that smily bothered me so much it's why I made mine in the first place. XPOn the other hand, Elise turned out great with just the basic circle; for me whether to stick with the circle or not depends on the shape of the original character's head, and when it comes to Ace Attorney most of them are pretty standard; Victor is not.
Now that the forum is behaving, I'll see to sorting out the collection for submission.

I also tried to make an Ashley, too, but it came out kinda weird:
(I can GIF-itize later if there's enough demand.)Hmmm... maybe I'll have a go at that one too...
I have way too much fun making smilies.
