Naming of a Program

Well Rift, Nem, and Myself all decided that I should make a program for emoticons a while back (like 3 months ago). So Since [i]The KillaBlogger[/i] is almost done....(Hopefully will still work with KillaBlogs v2.0) I decided that I'll start thinking of the back-end code of this emoticon program. The idea has been posted before by ada... but I'll post it again.

The idea of this program is to provide the user an easy to use interface providing them with emoticons for theri use on forums, e-mail, websites, and even more. Upon opening up the program there will be categories of emoticons. Clicking on one of the categories will open up a database of emoticons. Using the power of PHP, Visual Basic 6.0, and Adobe Photoshop, Code name [i]Uncle Emoticon[/i] will take over the internet! MUAWHAHAHAHA /diablo.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(evil)\' /> oh wait..that's the other project, nevermind /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> No, but seriously, It will allow you to hopefully drag and drop the emoticon to where you want it. May it be a text box for a forum to a RichTextBox in a program, I want it to be as easy to use as possible. Hopefully that explains the majority of it.

I'm not happy with the name I have for it now so it is a code name I guess /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> If anyone can think of names for this program, it would be greatly appreciated. I don't want KillaNet or anything relating to KillaNet in it's name..KillaNet will be put in the program though /bigwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />

Thanks in advanced,

hmmm, not sure Josh ... here's a couple of ideas:

Easy Emoticon
Icon Magic

Not sure if that helps you and I certainly won't be offended if you think they suck...lol

Good luck with the program Josh /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

lol, well I want something that sticks out.. "Easy Emoticon" would be seen in context if someone used google or something to search for it. Example: "...this tutorial demonstrates how you can make some [b]easy emoticon[/b]s for your own..."

Icon magic sounds more of a program with icons, not smilies...

Sorry if I'm being so picky :\ lol

We can scrap the idea until I figure out a work-around for bandwidth...

Here's what I came up within 5 of coding, eating, and babysitting:
