#### Keys 1-4 for facial expressions; keys 5-0 for poses...?

You can click the numerical keys to have your character exhibit various facial expressions and the AFK animation while standing still.
It would be nice to have access to the falling animation in the same manner (because it would make your glitch look seated), the jumping animation (while remaining on the ground, to show enthusiasm) and any of the other animations you could give us.
This'd allow for a greater depth in expressing things via your Avatar, and shouldn't require more than a UI expansion (rather than adding new poses and etc).

- good idea to reuse parts of the animations!
  the jumping one could work
  a real "seated" pose would need a bit of movement tho, so you don't think it's the "dead" pose ^^

- Nah, just use the one it gives you as you're falling, with your legs tucked up. Main thing is that they don't need to draw additional art!

- I have always longed for the ability to make my Glitch throw herself to the floor in a melodramatic swooning fit of some kind.
  And I just KNOW sooner or later when I type "yay!" into local chat, it will make my Glitch do a cartwheel. I have faith.

- It would be nice to be able to lounge in that comfy bean bag chair...

- Maybe after the bum scratch animation, we could offer our glitch hand in friendship?

- It would be great if pressing 666 would cause the temporary appearance of devil horns.
  Edited to add:
  And maybe a pitchfork.

- I'd still like a genuine sad-face, rather than just the angry scowl ":(" elicits.

- Lol, idea is still to implement some extra expressiveness without requiring extra artwork for every single glitch image combination... so devil horns sprouting or a new sadface are beyond the scope of this one I'm afraid! Baby steps and all... I think it's easy enough to add some access to the art that's already been made without having to do a ton of work... Glad to see interest though!

- Aw ... no devil horns?
  Okay fine. Seriously, it would be super cool if one of the numbers would let me dance, like how I already dance with the subway maintenance bot. Yes I am one of those who refuses to complete that quest because I like dancing with the bot so much. Or just give me teleportation pose, and I can take it from there.

- LOVE this idea!

- I think that hard-coding the numbers to animations is bad, because it puts a small limit on the number of animations. I suggest instead / commands like most MMOs use and the ability to bind these commands to keys.
