Here's some some friends of mine and I came across...although some of you may have seen some of them before: :) "cute" smiley (button nose) :-) :^) conventional :-D big smile :-P sticking your toungue out :)B - dirty smiley (nude female) (many variations on this) :)BO- (pregnant female) :)8 - female with smaller breasts sorry. I forget the male equivalents for these (I wonder why). *Q.... or *b..... passed out drunk (tongue hanging out w/ drool) O:) innocent smiley ;) flirtatious smiley #) smiley with sunglasses (to signify "I'm cool") :-\ or :-/ for sarcasm :I seriousness :( sadness >:) spite/anger (esp revenge type stuff) >:I serious anger (hard emphasis on how determined you really are) >:( pissed off @:-/ (confused, usuable with any other facial expression (happy, serious, etc) These are just a few I remember from last year that I use to convey my expression and give color to my dialogue on the net. If I can find the file I had with a more comprehensive list, I'll post it.
