Can we please get a facepalm smiley?

Simple really, the question is in the title.

For those times when just isn't enough. I know it doesn't bring across the true feeling that a facepalm can. I think it would be a great addition to the list and it would fill in that last space on the right for symmetry's sake.

Something along the lines of this. [atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/a57910b0ce28.gif[/atsimg]
Of course it's just an example, you could design your own but you get the idea.

Naturally it could never be used just as the content of the post, normal posting T&C would still apply.

I don't know, what do others think, good idea or not?

cool idea and great little smiley thing.

s&f

lol it would quickly become the most overused smiley on the boards lol, maybe it would be a good gauge of how bad a thread is, see 8 facepalms within first page and you know not to go any further

sounds like a good suggestion to me, actually I'm surprised we don't already have one as if there was ever a board where I felt i was face palming constantly, this would be it

No offence, but is'nt that a nazi salute?

Just saying.

I love it because I have to *facepalm* quite a lot on ATS

You got my vote.

This is a issue I have considered and at the end of the day I decided to ignore it and just carry on like it won't be a problem.

It's good to see I'm not the only one who thinks it's a good idea.
Cheers guys and gals

Absolutely, I wish we had one to express exasperation sometimes. That and a "Homer Simpson" DOH! smiley.

Start a petition I will sign it. Wait I guess this counts

Trowa

I guess this could count as one, although to be fair this could of been asked in the Board Business & Questions section but somehow this feels more at home in BTS. I remember there used to be a heap of different smilies to choose from here, I think the code still works though if you know it.

Any update on this?
I feel it is needed more now then when I first posted this question.

Can we?
Please
