Using emotions in your posts

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Yesterday Silvia Weiss asked how we can add these little fellas   :oops: ; :cry: ; :idea: ; 8-) ; :neutral::-) ; :-D to our posts. They are called smileys or emotions.

I am a great fan of smileys. They add some human touch to my texts and help me express what I am feeling. In other words, they help me convey the message in a different way. In my opinion it is the (online) text’s virtual body language! ;-)

I have just put together a small explanation here.

It is really easy to create these nice yellow fellas! ;-) The problem is when the get green! :mrgreen:

Hope you like it! :-D
