Emoticons
posted by silvercord 1 year 8 months ago • 323 views
At the risk of sounding like a noob (which in many ways, I suppose I am), I'd like to know about emoticons here on the Sift. Quite by accident, I did a "smiley" without a nose and viola! . . . an emoticon! I had seen them before here but never knew what you guys were up to.

Also, I've notice in some music posts that LadyBug can get little musical notes to magically appear.

I'd like to know what keystrokes are involved in placing emoticons etc., here on VS.

Thanks,

Sc

As far as the music notes go, you can copy and paste them in from Word. (open a document, Insert...Symbol, then look for the notes there.

another option for the music notes is to go Start > Run > "charmap"
look for the music note, doubleclick so it's in the text field, copy, paste.
also, with most characters, in the lower right you will see "Keystroke: Alt+####" simply enter it as such and you will see the character.
© = Alt+0169 (Note: the numerals must be entered on the keypad, not the line of numbers along the top of the keyboard...)

Dag, in that post by Lucky he shows that you can make the emoticons have eyebrows too.
How?

Add ">" or "*" before the colon. It works for most of them.

Anyone bookmark my post? I found them all and put them in here with escape chars, so it was the copy and paste code ">:)" instead of >: + ) =>

Anyways.. I had a master list somewhere.

Geez finally found it.. Had to look through pages of old comments. (FYI, Dag, you still have Virtual Dir Listings ON!)


-->  :) :( :o :p :D :/ :)) :(( :s ;p ;) >:) >:(
--> add a "*" before above

In addition to copy & paste and/or alt+0128 stuff, you can google for ascii html characters
and....
"&#0189;" is same as the alt+0189 (charmap stuff) ==> ½ ½ (indeed it is)
