Also a newbie

Ohhh! I understand your “mind state” … it’s very depressing and frustrating to see all this “dangerous stupidity” going on over the world … but as you say, that’s not for this site!! :wink:

Enjoy your zynthian …
Love and Light!

Bless you!
Cheers!

You are both so right, I hope (and believe) this craziness will go less in the next few months.
But I also won’t discuss this here.

Finally John Miles nailed it back in 1976: “('Cause) in this world of trouble my music pulls me through.”
So let us make and listen to good music. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :headphones: :musical_keyboard: :notes:

The other piece I remember John Miles playing. He enjoyed structural dynamics … :smiley:

That’s a great one to sum up what we need to do! :+1: :grinning: :musical_keyboard:

I had to think about that one for a minute! :wink:
In the one quoted by Whiteman, quite epic.

Remember as a (very young)ish guy in '76 almost blowing up my twin 12" speakers driven by a roasting hot Armstrong Amp (could probably cook lunch on it - just the thing for the Summer of '76 - not!) with that one!

Oh no kind of given my age away now! :older_adult: :flushed:

Two quite different pieces.

Thanks guys! :+1:
:beers:

BTW - we need a Zynthian emoji don’t we? :wink:

+1 to the Zynthian emoji! :zynthian:

@jofemodo is the guy to do this, I think…

…yep, it’s an admin thing.

I’m still waiting for a badge we can award to people who present sound samples…

You wouldn’t believe how many ravens we waste just processing the present load . . . :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Would this work?

That’s a bigun you’ve got there - so to speak… :grin:

I won’t get involved in the “badge to award” thing - not sure I quite understand… Ravens?

My Zynth as a 72x72 icon - bit “squashed” perhaps…

Don’t ask! That way only lies dashed dreams and despair.

And why shouldn’t it be? Appeasing @wyleu is, after all, a BIG deal around here… :slightly_smiling_face:

Actually, the icon is big because I want the emoji to be as crisp and clean as possible. I think it gets scaled down during the “emojifying” process.

@riban
I knew I shouldn’t have asked! :grinning:

@Jtunes
Ah gotcha - I think…

I believe the images are scaled with CSS aren’t they?

Looking at source code for this rendered page, it seems to load images - but when you select a “standard” emoji from the set in edit, you set a text tag that causes the HTML process to load that image? Don’t really know a lot about web code stuff really.

Is that one a “standard” Twitter one from the emoji set, chosen/set by admin?

In the link referenced earlier by you I think I read that custom emojis could be uploaded as image files and would appear in the emoji collection?

Perhaps I misunderstood that.

I must admit that I’m not familiar with the setup with this particular “board” format/admin and what needs to be done to add emojis.

It’s late, and I sense that I might have opened a “can of worms” - sorry…

Ducks and leaves…

Night!

I tried to create an emoji:


but it doesn’t down-scale very nice:

It 's available on the emoji’s palette as :zynthianic:.
I hope some of you improve it and make it down-scale in a proper way.
And of course, i’m open to more “zynmojis” :zynthianic:

This is outperforms my wildest guesses on how that idea would evolve :trophy::trophy:
Love it!

:zynthianic:

Improved a little bit …

Yep that works! :+1: :grinning:

I won’t broach the subject of r@v*ns again…

But what does :zynthianic: mean? We need context here! The kids talk in emojis and I invariably end up embarrassed by some misuse!!! :blush:
