Communication on the Internet has long been colored with numerous emoticons, reflecting all the changes in the mood of the respondents. You can decorate with them not only a message on a forum or social network, but also your site.
Instructions
Step 1
Check out the standard set of emoticons. For example, go to any forum or social network. To insert a ready-made smiley on these resources, click on the button with its image in the message editing window and select the one that will really convey your mood at the moment. In addition, you can enter emoticons using special characters or ordinary punctuation marks. Find out what kind of emoticon will turn out if you type a certain combination on the keyboard.
Step 2
Find out which emoticons, in addition to the standard set, are especially popular with Internet users. Many forums and almost all social networks have their own unique set of icons. Choose the ones you like so that later there will be no difficulties with which and where to place. Refer to other online archives and collections to find rare emoticons that would become the "highlight" of your site.
Step 3
Click on the smiley image in the directory and, going to the next page (sometimes it is not required), find out its html-code. Copy it and enter your site as an administrator in the page edit mode. Choose a place to insert the emoticon and drag this code there.
Step 4
Use special programs to insert emoticons into your site. Download, for example, programs such as PostSmile or Sweetim. Embed them in the browser you are using. With these programs, you can liven up your page by posting both static and animated emoticons.
Step 5
In order to be able to insert any smileys into mailings, create a separate folder for the most interesting ones on your computer. Open Outlook Express. As you write your letter, press from time to time the "Insert Picture" icon, indicating the path to the folder with emoticons.
