Hey all,

I need some help. I've been trying to find some POC smileys/emoticons (as they have been requested and it's been something I've been looking for). That said, when I do searches the end results have been less than stellar (either racist or stereotyped).

So, I need some help. If you know of some good POC smileys (I'd prefer to stick with the smaller smileys/emoticons if possible) can you please let me know?

Lady Snow: thanks for the help. It's one of the reasons I've held back on putting any up. And it's really disappointing at this day and age that there isn't/aren't any good POC emoticons.

I did find some from a POC forum (with brown skin and fro) but want to find more POC and more of a variety of POC, if possible.

Linus,

I've been looking for a while too and it's just ABYSMAL.
We do have quite a few talented graphic artists here so I would be willing to have folks design and submit some new ones. Might be fun :)

Thank you for keeping this on your (large) list of to-do's. :angel:

Ok. I've uploaded the ones I've found under a Smiley category of POC (you should see it as the 2nd category. I did not make them and did find them on a POC forum. I'm curious as to what others think of these and if there are others (e.g., the ones Medusa posted) are better.
