The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Hi all!

First time using a poll on the new forum - hope it works well.

So we're trying to get some new LBT-themed emotes for both use here on the forum and in the Discord chat. People can draw a design for an emote or post a screenshot which they find best fitting! The first round of submissions has just concluded, so here's the time for a vote! This poll will be open for exactly 7 days, after which the winning submission will be converted into an emote.

I've added this week's submissions as attachments, fingers crossed that works too  :Mo

Small rule: please don't vote for yourself! That will be all ;)

I went with Guido as it's a less represented character in a voting pool full of Ruby :p

I really like the Guido one... his eyes makes him look ditzy. :P
Would it be possible for swimmers and flyers to get more love around here? Both figuratively… and literally. ♥

Of these ones, I vote for Flathead's draft. The expression in his drawing has the suspicious, ironic hint I'd expect from this kind of emote.

Going with Guido here.
Growing up I was a big LBT fan and had seen all movies and TV series episodes. On the forum, I was formerly known as Hypnobrai until Nov 11, 2017.

In recent years, I have gained an interest in the production of The Land Before Time, particularly the deleted scenes of the original film. New discoveries have been made in the last few years and continue to be made, so I feel that it is a good time to contribute.

I have always loved sharpteeth more than any other creatures in the franchise, such as the fourteenth film's Carnotaurus, the fifth film's Sharptooth, and #1 by far - the original Sharptooth.

From 2017-2019, I was an administrator for the LBT wiki.



(I'm a runner-up for the Appreciated Member 2017 award.)

I didn't know Sneak was gonna submit his, kinda made my drawing obsolete since I tried to copy the expression of his emote :P

I voted for Flathead's expression though, it's nicest :D
Inactive, probably forever.

Congrats Flathead on the win for #1! Will you attempt to turn it into a digital 200x200px emote yourself or will you require some assistance? We will do the rest of the resizing.

How did I miss this?

Anyways, thanks everyone. I'll try and do it myself at first and let you know if I'm struggling with it haha.
