WordPress Smilies

Did you know that if you type certain characters in a WordPress blog, they will appear as little images referred to as smilies? Try typing these symbols into a comment or a post and the blog will output these pretty little pictures (or smilies).

Some are duplicates, as you can see. Why? I don’t know. Don’t ask me. Just pick your preferred method and have fun with it.

Check ‘em out.
