I have no idea what namida's potential plugin will do. If you can restrict it to a small selection of smileys (thumbs up), that will be good.

The worry came from: If it can't restrict it, and instead offer everything there is, it's better to have explicit thumbs-down than, e.g., abusing the sick smiley. I'm not even sure if I'd still remain neutral on those reaction buttons anymore in that case. I'd probably advise against then.

Do we really need a way to thumbs-down a post? I don't want this forum to go down that road.

On the thumbs down, we should see fingers, such as this: And we'll remove the animation.

Most of Lana's smileys are uploaded. Hard-refresh the page (Shift/Ctrl/both, and either R or F5).

I think you can boil me until soft with the right smileys like these. But still it needs the working plugin.

Thanks for these, Eric!

Will this link change if you update the folder? If so, I'd strongly recommend using a permalink or short url which will stay the same forever, and that way you can add to the folder over time without having to keep reposting the link.

Quote from: Simon on July 04, 2026, 10:37:58 PMThe main hesitation is: I don't want animated thumbs-up under 3 messages out of 4.

We can make an un-animated 'thumbs up' for this purpose, I'd think? Can we choose which lemojis get used for post reactions? If so, definitely don't use any of the animated ones.

Quote from: Simon on July 04, 2026, 10:37:58 PMAmong the installed smileys, there are no good, small, clear smileys for disagreeing.

We can make a version of the 'thumbs up' lemoji with the hand facing downwards instead. And, don't animate it.

I've attached new versions of these lemojis (I couldn't see Lana's anywhere... have they been added yet?). If they look too similar, I'm happy to think of something else. It'd be a shame for 'we don't have the lemojis we need' to be a/the reason not to add this feature.

Per-post smiley reactions have become common on other forum software.

I'm neutral to hesitant about this. I assume that namida (and not I) will look after setting this up if you can convince him.

The main hesitation is: I don't want animated thumbs-up under 3 messages out of 4. But that is the clearest one to show agreement. Nothing comes close. People will want to use that.

Among the installed smileys, there are no good, small, clear smileys for disagreeing. Shocked, devil, sick, forehead-slap, ..., all mean different things, or at least with different nuance. Unless there is a clear one for disagreeing, people will converge on an arbitrary existing smiley to mean disagreement. That would be worse than making a new smiley for disagreeing.

The alphabetical sorting is one source of confusion, but even bigger sources come from Lemmings culture itself:

Oh No More Lemmings was the first expansion by DMA.
Oh Yes Something Something are user packs, they came later.

Oh No, Not Again was a level by tseug.
Oh Yes, Here Again is a variant tseug's level by Nepster.
And your two titles are similar to these two.

Quote from: kaywhyn on July 01, 2026, 11:23:45 PMI got the impression from your groans that you're blaming me for my designs, when in fact you should play the levels before judging.

Hmm. It's a livestream, I say what comes to mind. Solving levels is hard. No worries with the grunts or the rants. Nearly everything in a level is an annoyance (in the widest sense) because it prevents me from solving the map.

Oh No/Yes came from the double-level contest, and it's up to me to guess how much terrain the routes share. I realized that late. Before, I wanted to send lemmings all across the map.

Thanks for following the streams so closely, and for you feedback!

Quote from: kaywhyn on July 01, 2026, 11:23:45 PMwhy do people insist on making my Oh Yes harder than it needs to be?

Psychological reason: If you can do something with fewer skills, it's always correct; if you spend more skills, it may need revision later. And if you drill deep into a local area, you understand it better.

Yeah, I see how you solve the timing issues completely with Dexter's leftover blocker.

geoo blames me for drilling too deep into local areas, and suggests that I broaden the search. His advice is hard to follow but probably better. At least, the drilling found some almost-backroutes (wrong ideas that almost worked) in early versions of his levels, and he was able to patch that to fail more clearly.

Here is another Pack called Scottylems by Scotty.

It includes the levels, music, and replays

Here is another pack for RetroLemmini - Snack Pack

It includes the levels, music, and replays.

Enjoy!

Here are the styles I have so far for retrolemmini, including some new ones (ie, kiwi, dune)
