The smiley for ;) hardly looks like it is winking, and is hard to recognise as a wink for the first time without looking closely. Now that I am familiar with the smiley, I recognise it, but for somebody that has not been on a !WordPress blog before may have trouble recognising it at first. For this reason, I propose replacing the current set of smileys with ones from the [http://tango.freedesktop.org/ Tango Desktop Project's] icon set. The Tango Desktop Project is an initiative started around three years ago that aimed to improve the icon styling and consistency of free software projects. They provide a reference implementation of their style guide in the form of an icon set, which contains many beautiful icons, including a set of smileys. In their [http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library icon library], you can view a [http://tango.freedesktop.org/images/2/20/Tango-feet.png picture] of what their icons look like. You can plainly see that this is an improvement over !WordPress' current icons. [[Image(http://tango.freedesktop.org/images/2/20/Tango-feet.png)]] These icons could even be used in the new dashboard redesign, but they would probably have to be recoloured." enhancement closed low UI 2.7 minor duplicate needs-patch
