This is cute and funny .I like how it's not just an ordinary icon but it includes a little story in it

File size limits suck! The first thing I did when I saw this was check it too! `Krissi001 made some good suggestions, other than that I really liked it. Especially the whole EEE part. My wife does that all the time!

I totally agree about the size limit

I assume it avoids some kind of problem, but it seems like they could make it larger. Personally, I'm amazed when people are able to do so many frames with such a small file size.

I don't like it when I feel stress when making an animated icon because I have to keep my eye on the size .I sometimes have to remove frames or replace colors/transparency to avoid it.

That's awesome!
Only the background annoys me a bit. Maybe you could use the colour of the groups page background? And you can reduce the file-size be reducing the amount of colours on the Emotes. The Yellow Emote already has 23 colours and the red 19. Have you tried to use a hand-pixelled shading instead of a gradient?

thanx for the info. *a-kid-at-heart gave me a colour-code. i hope its better now. And I have reduced the colours from 256 to 74. But the next contest with size-limit, i try the hand-pixeling!!
