    Cool favourite text smiley/picture

    What's your favourite smiley face or text picture when you are typing messages - if any.

    I like this one

    O.o

    or variations with a mouth

    O.o
    `
    O.o
    ~

    O.o
    -


    what about you - please share, perhaps we can learn ones we haven't seen before

    EDIT: The ones with the ~ and the - mouths should have a space beofre the mouths, but when I actually post it, the space is removed. I think they look better with the space though.

    Cool favourite text smiley/picture

    One of my favorites is m/ (which, as you can see, is a thumbs-up). In the States, it's a symbol of encouragement (as you see in my avatar) -- although I have since learned that in Australia and in other parts of the Empire, the same gesture is an offensive manuever Americans call "flipping the bird."



    In my case, it's always an encouragement...
    keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

    Actually in Asutralia, giving some one a thumbs up is ok - depending on the situation. If it is teamed with a smile - like your avatar - it's all good - however in older times, it was often done as a way of telling somene "where to go" so to speak. This can still be achieved sometimes today if it is done with a negative facial expression - but generally a thumbs up is a good thing. "Flipping the bird" to me generally means an extension of the middle finger, not the thumb.

    kisses {:ox

    tongue {:oP

    I'm going old school - nowadays we have all those cool smileys I know, but the old school way is fun too sometimes.

    Many moons ago I used to do allot of chatting on yahoochat and saw heaps of stuff - one of the best to use when chatting to a girl was a rose ---/---@

    or, if you have the time, you can do a bunch of roses, but it is to hard on here because it automatically removes unecassary spaces

    And this is one I use on other sites: (;-{>) (gotta give him a 'stache and a goatee)...

    but this one and the "cool" icon I almost always use on my messages are easier!

    See, I never knew about the clown, or goatee - they're cool. Hence this thread and it's importance.
