Hmm... Upon first glance, nostalgia and familiarity said "Nope, keep the old ones." But nostalgia and familiarity are stupid criteria, and now that I've kicked those two out the window, I like them. They're a good blend of the originals and what I'd assume is your personal style. My one suggestion would be making them a bit smaller. I already felt like the old ones were a bit big, so making even bigger ones is not a good thing, in my book.
Either way, I like these and think we should use them.
I COMPLETELY know that feeling. I get the same way looking at my emotes too actually. XD I wanted to try and retain the essence of the originals without being a "copy" of them. I'm still thinking about perhaps changeing them just a bit to make them a bit more like the old ones? Main thing I was thinking was adding more contrast to the shadows and make it feel a bit more "3D". What do you think?
And yes... these are most certainly in my own personal style. I don't know if you noticed that I added just a subtle hint of blue for the character's eyes? Kinda like how they have Pikachu techally have brown eyes though in some artwork it can be drawn as black. If you follow what I mean by that? (I can also use different eye colors depending on the emote like a nore red tone for the angry ones.)
I was wondering about the size actually. I was worried if I made them TOO small they would loose their details. They didn't seem to be as sharp as the original emotes are in smaller sizes, on my computer anyway. I'll see what I can do.
Any ideas for other emotes or things you might add? :3
IMO, there's already a great amount of contrast. It's subtle, but definitely makes it look like the irl piece. Honestly, even more than the originals
No offence MO, but I kind of dislike the blue bricks in the background.
If you must know the truth, that was not me. And I dislike it too actually, though I'm not going to change it without having a different better design ready or without speaking with the other staff members.
Also, what are your exact thoughts on it? A specific reason for disliking it? Do you have any ideas for a new design to improve?

In my opinion, it's kind of bland. There could be artwork in the background, like backgrounds from LU or just dark/light art that captures LEGO and looks marvelous.
"May the downtrodden one day rise up and take the place of those that would oppress them."

"There could be artwork in the background"
OOOoooohhhh.... Now we're talking up my ally. ...
Or Jah's.

So we are coming up with new ranks then? I think we should do ranks based on status rather than minifigure like the old ones if we do:).
what do you mean?
I mean like the old ranks. The new ranks are just random minifigures. The old ones actually showed status without having to know which rank number it was.
~l)~/\/~/-\~ The tie between real life and legos is imagination .
Also, maybe something like a tool box in the sig box?
I don't know if a tool box for customizing signatures would be that phesable. It would be convenient, yes, though I think like the old MBs we can just have it so the users can code them.
