#2It's simple, but it invariably makes me smile whenever I go near it.
The custom favicon to match any generated 'smyface' is nice touch, too :o)

You mean like this one... http://smyfaceimages.s3.amazonaws.com/moods_orange.png ?

#5This reminds me of something I started many years ago (2007-03-10) I wanted to track my mood throughout the day and eventually over years to see how different events and times of the year effected me, does anyone know of anything that exists for that now?

hm strange. for me, the first time I loaded the page and whizzed the slider back and forth, it felt like each face was loading separately (faces were half-loaded etc).
or it could have been just the large sprite was still downloading as I was sliding the bar.
in which case, probably best to preload it :)

Something we put together back in '98 and one of the guys still keeps it running: http://www.imood.com It's not what you would call "well designed", but it was fun back in the day and managed to get a bunch of users back then.
