Fodors halloween icon?

Boo!

I've forgotten how to pull up the Fodors icons!!! And lost my printed sheet! :-( HELP!

Hi Tandoori Girl, the icon you posted is from MSN Instant Messenger.
Sorry, can't help you with any others; I'm icon challenged LOL.

Okay, guys! No problem - I found the icons in my "favorites." For anyone else wanting to use icons:

The "count"is flying above on the left of fodors, but you can't see his fangs,
he's flying through the O of .com on the main page.

bonnie, I've pasted the smileys page as one of my "favorites". When I want one then I pick that page, copy the icon, then go back to the fodors page and paste it. Works everytime.

Wanderluster, why would anyone want a icon of the MSN instant Messenger? And although that answers my question I still don't know what those figures are.

Sigh. Life can be so confusing.

I think it looks like either a mouse or a frog. But if you right click on the icon and then click "properties" you can see what it is "named." Often that gives you a clue. In this case, it is "png" which makes me think these are 2 penguins.

I wish they had a "mother in law" icon. Now THAT'S SCARY!!!!!!
:-O))):-o =-O

Papua New Guinea ?

I'm betting that "png" is "ping", as in "pinging somebody with a message", or "I'll ping you with the answer" - especially applicable with wireless devices. Ping is the onomatopoeia for radio waves. Think submarine movies and the technician is using sonar to locate something underwater.

png is the file format
png = Portable Network Graphics

At first I thought - penguins? It looks more like a couple of mice. Or falsies. Or something. But as I look at it, I can sort of see one penguin in front of another one, if you can imagine green penguins. I'm a penguin freak, though (you should see my house and my office - more penguins than Antarctica) and a bit of a purist. There is no such thing as a green penguin. Blue ones, yes, but not green ones.

here_today_gone2Maui - that's twice! I need your email so I can pass my responses by you for accuracy verification.

They sort of look like pawns in a chess set to me :-?

TripleSecDelay Oct 30th, 2004 12:51 PM

Now that I look at my error pattern, they're both on saturday mornings. Friday night is my night to howl - and we went through a bottle of CaboWabo & some CalinforniaCatnip during last night's poker game. I'm off to the kitchen to brew some KonaSunrise...

bonniebroad Oct 30th, 2004 12:56 PM

TG, they look like two people walking away to me! So they could be ghosts........ Now you have me so intrigued! #-o

Marilyn Oct 30th, 2004 01:00 PM

TripleSec, and that relates to the graphic in what way?

cigalechanta Oct 30th, 2004 01:02 PM

They look like pawns to me and that's what I call them when I have trouble with my msn messinger.
