If I remember correctly, the last time this was discussed there was no major objection to more static smilies (if there was a good reason for them) but animated smilies are right out and will not be installed.

Looking at the linked ones, I can't see any worth having.

A facepalm smiley would be cool:)
Seen as there's no need for two of these-:P- one could be replaced maybe?

The reason there's two is so that both [NOPARSE]:p[/NOPARSE] and [NOPARSE]:P[/NOPARSE] work.

Is there an issue with GIFs or is it just a measure to prevent asshattery?

They are annoying and b/w hogs.
