    This emoticon.
    :astonished:

    ^ That is this face:

    When I type in [noparse]:astonished:[/noparse], I mean for it to look surprised like this [​IMG]

    Is it possible that we can find a new emoticon for this BB code? It just doesn't fit.

    Does anybody else feel like this emoticon just doesn't fit with that text? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    If you want more of a shocked face, why not use the jawdrop?

    :jawdrop:

    Naw, bro. :grin:
    Though I do use the [noparse]:astonished:[/noparse] face a lot, I'm more concerned about getting the resulting emoticon to look like the text face actually does.

    I'd just use the surprised face.
    [noparse]:surprised[/noparse]
    :surprised

    I'm just wanting to get the [noparse]:astonished:[/noparse] face to look like it actually should.
    Looking at the surprised face, it doesn't capture the pure confusion that the [noparse]:astonished:[/noparse] face does.

    [​IMG]
    Look at that. Look at how confused and surprised that green face is.

    I have to constantly remind myself to type it the other way round on EC.

    Activate EC shocked-face mode!

    Or he cut the cheese. Seriously. O faces are weird and the clearest evidence we're descended from apes.

    What's wrong with licking chip crumbs off your fingers? I hate when that happens. Gotta get all the deliciousness.

    :roflmao: Seriously, when I saw the title of this thread, I thought that was the emoticon the OP was referring to. But then I actually opened it up and looked.... I was so very, very incorrect.
