Member Appreciation Thread -- trickblue

[Reality]

I thought it would be great to every so often recognize members of our community who have contributed something extra special to CowboysZone so that everyone can show their appreciation for how that person has helped this community.

The first person I would like to recognize is .. @trickblue

trickblue was an original member here and was also a moderator for a long time. While we could say that about other members, what makes trickblue's contribution to this community even more special is something he did long ago that we all still benefit from today.

trickblue is the one who came up with the idea of making animated Cowboys emojis (emoticons back in the day) and made several of them for the community to use.

So every time you see any of these ...



.. and possibly other emojis used on this site, you can thank @trickblue for making that possible!

Thank you, trickblue!!

@trickblue

Did you ever think after all of these years later people would still be using the emojis you created?

In a tribute to trickblue, I have never used any emojis on this forum. (I'm not a big emojis guy lol). But, for this occasion I will use a few to say thank you!.

@trickblue is my guy.. I can't really share how much he has meant to me since I joined CZ, while he was on staff, our occasional insider jokes that only mean something to he and I, and just being an overall good person.

I sure didn't think they's still be around. I remember some other sites that took them from here and used them on their site...

Emoji's were a great addition.
There used to be a lot more of them, what happen to them?

Not anymore... snuck into his treehouse fort and took them...

Just out of curiosity, are you a priest? That's a cool avatar

 

[DallasEast]

@trickblue is THE Man! He has been my inspiration for many of my animated gifs although none of them have come close to being as cute as his emoticons.

HOW DID YOU MAKE THEM SO DARN CUTE!

I am not.... but I've used it for 15 years. Couldn't let a pipe smioking priest get away from me...
