Very nice idea, grigoriou, however I think the execution isn't that good, I think it could be much better if you adjust the 'SME' style to ';)' making it also warped/doodly... Good work, nonetheless!

hmm, not a bad idea houston, but my initial thinking is that if i warp all the letters that way then the smile wont be as noticeable, especially in a black and white.
i'll try it though! thanks!

Ah I get it then. Well, if you decide not to change anything, I think this would look great on white if you just make 'SME' black/grey (unhappy) and the ';)' red/yellow. This way the I L would try to cheer the unhappy world around them )) If that makes any sense LOL

I'm wondering if you can just make the bottom eye straight as opposed to warped? The lowercase 'i' would read much better this way and he would still be winking. ;-) Nice eye-dea.

really like it... i think it reads fine, nicely done... i wondered if you had maybe tried, if you hadn't already, the face just a tad larger (i dont mean the weight of the lines but just in overall height) that might make your "il" stand out a little more... just a thought
