I'm all for it. Just as soon as I can work out what you meant.

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
I see people have already figured out how to use it.
Basic use is just [mirror]:smileytext:[/mirror]
If you want to rotate or invert the smiley instead of mirroring it you put an equals sign and a number after the first mirror word. For example to flip the smiley vertically you'd put:
[mirror=2]:smiley:[/mirror]
The numbers are:
0 - no effect (seems useless but see below)
1 - normal mirror, same as when no number is present
2 - vertical flip
3 - rotate left ¼ turn
4 - rotate ½ turn (turn the smiley upside down)
5 - rotate right ¼ turn
6 - mirror the smiley and then rotate left ¼ turn
7 - mirror the smiley and then rotate right ¼ turn
If the smiley is animated, you can add bigger numbers to the above to speed it up or slow it down. For example if we add 8 the smiley animation runs at about ½ speed:
[mirror=8] [mirror]
(Note: Internet Explorer users may see 'slowed down' smilies appearing to run faster, but this is because IE sucks at rendering fast-animated gifs. If you swap to Firefox you'll see the difference).
And if we add an extra 32 (so 40 in total) it goes about ¼ speed. Below I'm putting mirror=41 so the smiley runs slow and gets mirrored.
And we can add 64 or 128 instead of 32 to make it even slower (see hovertext).
If we start by adding 16 instead of 8, We get a speeding up effect instead. Again the bigger numbers can be added to speed up even more:
You can put the path to a gif image instead of smileytext if you wish:
At the moment, it only works with gif images, but I can easily extend it to work with .png and .jpg if anyone thinks there might be a need for it.

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
I see the hover text is wrong for the slowed/speeded by 8 I'll send an updated file to the admins to fix that.

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
The speeds only work properly for me in Firefox.
It doesn't render properly in Chrome

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
What goes wrong in Chrome? Is it just the speed that's wrong or something else?

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
The speeds for the slowed down by half and regular speed are reversed, and the sped up ones don't work right either - the normal speed is the slowest, 2x speed is faster than normal speed, but the rest are somewhere in between (I can't eyeball the ratio between the speeds).

Re: A Pressing Matter of Smiley Orientation
I think that's just a general issue with the browser and not the fault of the mirror code.
There are lots of issues with different browsers rendering fast animated gifs at different speeds. Take a look at in Firefox, Chrome and IE and it looks very different.
There's an interesting, though slightly dated, article on deviantArt about the problem here.
The summary of most the articles I've read about the problem seems to be, "Use Firefox, if you can."
