Facebook smileys

Why are Icons for Facebook secret?

This is a query that has certainly long puzzled those who like using popular internet sites. Why, if there are features such as emotions available, would the company not inform people about them? The answer is evident – if you let us know how to insert them you dirty the screen space and make it messy and more dirty. You also would create a more cluttered and less streamlined website – something that Facebook in particular has been trying to stay away from with their website. It really moves them away, and makes them very special. In fact, it’s quite a sensible take on creating a social network.

Tell me what different different Facebook chat smileys are possible?

There are a huge number of smileys available for you to copy, but sadly users can’t use them in your Facebook status or on the walls of other Facebookers. Currently, the one way to use these Facebook chat emotes is to use chat on Facebook (which you can locate in the bottom right of your monitor, in the newly unleashed ‘Facebook bar’ that is now available when you first sign in to FB).

Here is entirely a simple intro to chat icons, in future postings I will inform you more about the ones that are possible and what to do in order to insert them in your chat box!

Facebook chat emoticons

Penguin Facebook chat emoticon
This one was a real shock to most people, because it had been a while since FB added any new content to their chat service – then one day up popped a Penguin! Cool. I liked it too because I use Linux and everyone knows that the penguin is like the mascot for that, so i’m happy!

Facebook Shark chat emoticon
This one was a really cool addition to the normal smilies, because nobody else had thought to put a shark into the Facebook chat program. When it was added, people went mad sending them to their friends, sometimes like 100 at a time! They also terrorized the penguin when it came out by making the shark eat it.

The pacman emoticon
Ok so it’s not technically a new emoticon, but the Pacman symbol is pretty much the best icon I’ve ever been able to send to people. I can’t believe nobody thought of it before actually!

Anyway that’s just my two cents, you can check out Facebook chat emoticons if you want to see a full list of all of the emotes for the chat software, otherwise stay cool and I’ll talk to you some other time!

My favourite emoticon on Facebook is the shark. It’s crazy – when you put a shark at the end of a conversation and your friend sees it they usually freak out! I sometimes use it to scare my Facebook friends into thinking I’m going to eat them.

I also sometimes use the devil emoticon on Facebook if I’m feeling a little naughty or flirty – I think my friends like that one. Facebook emoticons can also, of course, display the opposite emotions – and usually if I put a devil then my friends put an angel

That’s all I wanted to say anyway, if you ever need to find the full list of Facebook emoticons for their chat program then go over to their site today!

The Facebook shark emoticon reminds me of Jaws, the popular big great white shark from the movies in the 1980s. It’s pretty cool that Facebook have decided to make an emoticon about the fish, and even more cool that they have made it look like a fish too (the way to do the emoticon is (^^^) which looks a bit like the side of a shark when you look at it in the water.

The head of the Facebook shark smiley is sticking out of the water, a little bit like it’s about to eat someone. I like that. Anyway once again, the Facebook shark emoticon is here, and it’s cool!
