Xtras site: The following emoticon set should be renamed

As mentioned in the comments, that character's name is Onion Head.

The uploader didn't know the name, so made one up, thus "cool cat."

As the original author "Ethan" said on his website:

"歡迎大家使用洋蔥表情於個人用途或論壇 ,
但是請勿自行加工修改或用於商業用途 , thanks!!"

"Everyone is welcome to use it for personal use or forum use, but don't modify it or use it for commercial use, thanks!!"
(as translated in one of the comments)

I'd say changing the name would be considered "modifying it." ;p


And of course, this also makes it harder for people to search for it.


So I would like to request the name be changed.


It should be noted that there is already another emoticon set called "Onion Head":

Hmm?

Are you talking about the 2nd link?

Yeah, the 2nd link's emoticon set is correctly named "Onion Head."


The one in the 1st link is (still) named "cool cat."

Ah, I see. Does the one currently named "Cool cat" supercede the existing "Onion head" one such that the current "onion head" should be disabled?

Nope.

Actually, "cool cat" has 54 emoticons while "Onion Head" has 99.

So "Onion Head" actually has many more, though I think "cool cat" has one or two that "Onion Head" doesn't have. (not sure)


I suppose you could rename "cool cat" to "Onion Head 1" (it is the one that was uploaded first)
and the existing "Onion Head" to "Onion Head 2"?

Or is that what you want to avoid?
