Question Changing the "love" and/or "groovy" react icons?

[V]

One day I was talking with Khastle and I proposed to him to change the "groovy" and "love" react icons to something else. He said that he wouldn't want to change these but they are kinda bad in my opinion, especially the "love" icon. So, I ended up deciding to ask you guys instead whether we should change the "groovy" and/or "love" icon(s) to something else.

Edit: If you have some images that you think would fit send them in the replies

love is kinda mid, but IMO both can stay as they're

Probably change the love one as its an anime girl getting railed but want other views first.

groovy is fine-ish in my eyes but love is genuinely dumb. doesnt fit anything and the idea of "damn i love this music/idea/thread/post/etc" being expressed through some anime girl is bleh.

honestly i wouldnt mind having more emoticons in general, but if we were to replace/add some, i would ideally want them to be music based and or inspired. we could make a big ol thread about it if we really want to go down that route

i know this is an ideal scenario and all that but i wouldnt mind some mariana based emoticons/reactions that can help make this site more distinct. i do know sites like fiverr and such have people who can make that (assuming there isnt some guy here who cant do it already) but i wouldnt be so sure about some of their rates. that and the idea paying for such a simple thing is kind of off putting.

also another potential idea i just thought of would be to see if we can implement animated reactions/emoticons. i think it would go long way and let us be able to chose even more what we could potentially want vs just limiting ourselves to a simple 240x240 png file.

that is assuming that it can be done and be done relatively easily and or cost free

Yeah probs gonna change the love one this weekend, send replacement suggestions in this thread

yeah not going to lie i am struggling to find some love images we can use as emoticons. i mainly have gifs and a few images for groovy, confused, and a few other reactions but nothing for love.

Wouldn't a simple heart work?

i think maybe we could take a similar route to the diamond and find a heart from games or media we can all agree on? gaming wise, things like Terraria's heart crystals and other games heart related items would be great.

This is actually a good idea

 

[playFACE]

we could just add in the simple undertale heart as a potential idea. that or let me make one in MS paint and make that the love emoticon

youre not getting another giant dollar though, the mariana bay's department of finances has taken me to court and i will not risk another lawsuit

 

[Khastle]

Yeah I like this one too, will defo look into this.

i prefer the former but the rather i imagine would look better due to its outline.

if we get the 1st image with an black outline then its golden in my eyes

The terraria one would be nice the first one is not bad either since we can just add an outline
