I used the standard symbol for a NPN transistor which i suppose fits the TO-92 
footprint where pin1 = emitter, pin2 = base and pin3 = collector. Now, I have 
SOT-23-3 transistors, which always have pin1=base, pin2=emitter and pin3 = 
collector. I didn't notice, so the base and emitter pins was exchanged... I 
solved the problem temporarily by putting the transistor up-side-down om the 
board!

Now, for the next layout , I've made a different footprint for SOT23-3 called 
SOT23EBC which have the pins numbers changed so it fits the NPN-symbol in 
EEschema. 

Is this the best solution to this kind of problem, or is there a better way?
