You've probably seen others use smilies before in email messages or
other bulletin board posts. Smilies are keyboard characters used to convey
an emotion or feeling. Let's face it; sometimes words alone do not suffice.
Adding a winking smilie, for instance, may help you clarify that you are
joking. Use your smilies sparingly, though-- if overused, smilies can be
downright annoying.
If you have used email or internet chat, you are likely familiar
with the smilie concept. Certain standard emotions are automatically converted
into smilies. Here's the list of currently accepted smilies:
