Hello friends.... smile Routine is monotonous... so its time for some fun again. I feel proud to introduce you all our very own 'smiley userscripts' that run exclusively on DesiDime. The scripts lift off your limitation to smiley usage in posts and offer you a huge variety of smileys that you can use in your post/topics/chats/pm etc. So now you all can be as expressive as you always wanted to be wink Those who do not understand what userscripts really are, just consider it to be a kind of code that adds more smileys to your default DesiDime text box. Its very simple to use and does not require any special skills. The best part is they are 100% optional. I owe a huge thanks to Admin who helped me all the way through in making the code, since I'm not much of a techie to be honest. Without him this would not have been possible. The scripts have been designed to be used on firefox, but they are equally compatible with other browsers. We have tested them with Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari on our machines and I will be describing each of them.

So guys here we go....!

DOWNLOAD USERSCRIPT
Smiley Arena (Full)
The complete pack with almost all genres of emoticons (smileys). View Script | Download (for Firefox) | Download (for other browsers) | Download Optimized Version (all browsers)



Smiley Arena (Lite Ver)
Those who prefer simplicity. It includes only the basic emoticons (smileys). Suitable for even very slow connections. View Script | Download (for Firefox) | Download (for other browsers)



Smiley Arena 2
Another mega pack with 93 different emoticons. Contains exclusive DesiDime emoticons as well. View Script | Download (for Firefox) | Download (for other browsers) | Download Optimized Version (all browsers)



INSTALLATION
On Firefox
1. You require Greasemonkey plugin. Download Here. 2. Install Greasemonkey, restart firefox. (Skip if already installed) 3. Drag and drop the downloaded script (which ever version you prefer) onto the open FF screen. 4. Click on 'Install' on the pop up page. It will install automatically. Tip: You can install both script and enable/disable them in greasemonkey itself.

On Google Chrome
1. Open Chrome browser. 2. Drag and drop the downloaded script onto the open screen. 3. Click on 'Continue' when the alert message pops up at the bottom left. 4. Click on 'ADD' on the 'confirm new extension' window. It will install. (No plugin required) Tip: Install one script at a time to avoid duplicating the smileys. The full version contains all the smileys of the lite version. Update: Due to change in Google's security policies, third party extensions/scripts are not installed by default on Google Chrome. Follow the steps below to add the userscripts manually: 1. Download the userscript file to your computer. 2. Open Chrome browser. Navigate to Tools >> Extensions. The extensions page will open in a new tab. 3. Drag and drop the downloaded userscript file onto this open tab. 4. Click on 'Add' button on the confirmation window. (No plugin required)

On Opera
1. Keep your downloaded file in a new folder and save it at any desired location. 2. Open Opera browser. Go to Settings >> Preferences >> Advanced. 3. In the left window select Content and then click JavaScript Options button that appears on the right side. 4. A new window will open. Click on 'Choose' button and browse to your folder location created in step 1. 5. Click 'OK' and exit. (No plugin required) Tip: Install one script at a time to avoid duplicating the smileys. The full version contains all the smileys of the lite version.

On Safari
1. You require Greasekit plugin. First, Download SIMBL and install the dmg package. 2. Restart Safari if you are using it. 3. Now, Download Greasekit Plugin. Copy GreaseKit.bundle file to ~/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins. If you dont have that folder, you can create one. 4. Restart Safari again and you will see Greasekit plugin in the window. 5. Drag and drop the downloaded script (which ever version you prefer) onto the open Safari screen to install it. Tip: You can install both script and enable/disable them in greasekit itself.


On Internet Explorer
Just to make the list complete, I'm discussing IE even though we have not tested personally. For Internet Explorer you may try the free softwares namely Trixie or ie7Pro. However, chances for working with IE9 are less.

INSTALLATION VIDEO TUTORIAL
Those who are experiencing any sort of difficulty with the installation can view the below video tutorial. This will make things more clear and easier. ">

USING THE FEATURE
Like already said, it is extremely simple. You just have to click the smiley you need to insert. That's all!!


So just check it out friends. All comments and suggestions are welcomed smile Happy DesiDiming!



+UPDATE LOG:+ 09 April 2013 - Revised installation tutorial for Google Chrome added (View) 14 July 2012 - Smiley Arena 2 added to the list (View)

Excellent Work!

Finally got the chance to download and inspect the userscript. I can only imagine the amount of time and effort that you must have put into this. https://cdn0.desidime.com/smileys/hats%20off.gif


Thanks for following my advice and not putting your efforts (and money) to create browser extensions that have their own pitfalls. Most active DD users (on the website) already use the smiley script by DM so there was no real “barrier to entry” as far as userscripts are concerned.


Now DD forums will be full of colors and dimers will have a lot of options to express themselves. I just hope that people don’t overdo it and I request people to use the emoticons appropriately. Refer: http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...


The admins and mods have already appreciated your efforts, so I don’t have to request them to do that. I also added some Karma as a small token of my appreciation. https://i.imgur.com/Scf6JRp.gif

Based on my quick observations, I have two suggestions for improvements:

  1. Change the “@include” parameter to run this script only on the following URLs. This will solve the problem on the post “Edit” screen highlighted by @16ujjwal and will also prevent the script from slowing down the browsing experience on pages where it’s not needed.
    1. http://*.desidime.*/*...ly*
    2. http://*.desidime.*/messag...ew*
  2. People can follow the simpler instructions posted by me to install userscripts on Chrome. Refer: http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...

P.S. Now I can finally release my userscript without worrying about raining on your parade. https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_wink.gif
