Description It's coming...
After one and half months of work, with more than double the number of smilies in the past FeltTip Retouched, you're looking at FeltTip4. Some of the smilies are not finished yet, and some are rough and definitely need work (beautiful-female really bugs me). Please let me know if there are any you think could especially use attention!

The final will be released as usual under a Creative Commons license in vector goodness and all sorts of sizes after a final stage of polishing.

Change "beautiful-female" to "Brooke Shields" and you got a winner! Looking forward to the final pack!

Ha. Actually, after much thought and frustration, I ended up ditching the lips and drawing on some feathered brown hair that I'm quite satisfied with. It scales really well, and I think it's quite beautiful, in a pretty ambiguous manner (which is what I was shooting for). So, not exactly Brooke Shields, but pretty close
The only problem is, now, the beautiful-male icon looks downright pathetic! Creative Commons all the way, man. Thank you for the comment.

Thanks
I've been wanting to contribute to OCAL for a while, and when I was looking at submitting FeltTip, I saw two reasons to not do it. One, I think of FeltTip as a cohesive set, and with it's high specialization and large number of icons, I didn't think OCAL was the optimal place to put it. Two, while I do want the smilies picked apart and used for stock/clipart purposes, the Public Domain requirement is not something I am ready to do. The FeltTip project started as an experiment in the Creative Commons, and I would like to keep it that way. While I want these icons to be widely distributed and modified, Attribution and the Creative Commons use limitations are things important to me for this set.

very nice - maybe you could round the edges of the 'dark' icon - it would look much slicker that way I think...

Great idea M3tzger! I tried that out, and the dark smiley looks so much better. Thanks
