Smilie Faces

[bigmck]

Does anyone know of a site that lets you DL smilie faces for email use that is not loaded with virus' and other bad stuff? I know that is a tall order, but just thought I would ask.

I used a site, smileys.com which has lots of smileys. I bought the pen drive that contained the program and all the different collections. They do have some that are free.

Try this, it's from MSN's smiles.... free.

Photobucket is a good source too, run a search for,say, "Angry smileys".

Do you have to install those or does just produce a smile?

I guess I just answered my own question since I typed the colon and close parentheses and ended up with a smiley face. So cool. Thanks,

That's due to them being installed in the forum software and recognized as such, like if one types a "w" followed by a "7" without spaces, it produces "w7". It wouldn't work in, say, Word.

Well that won't get me the smileys in email then. Back to square one. I was trying to find some that are like here where I just click on them and I can use them in email. I am scared to just DL any off of sites.

I use Yahoo email and I can't put an image in a message. I have no idea how the forwards I get with silly pics are made. I have downloaded a couple dozen from Photobucket with no issues. As someone else said, for some you can right click the smiley the Save Picture as.

you have to insert an image from the web for it to show, highlight the pic you want and right click /copy image.
it should then just paste into the email

I just downloaded what was supposed to be newest free version 6 but when I started the install it said "Trial version 5.0" so backed out. Then went back to site to double check myself & as far as I can tell I didn't click wrong. And in further reading it kinda looks like there is 'no free version' anymore. Very confusing site to me anyway.

Anyone else try it? With what result?

Thanks,
grits

 

[Britton30]

Make sure you choose Custom or Advanced install, maybe there is an option that way?

 

[grits]

I'm not sure 'cuz as soon as I saw "Trial version 5" I backed out. I just now went back to site & went thru the FAQ & found where I'd read that maybe the free version has been pulled. I'm sure disappointed 'cuz like Bigmck, I'd really like to have Smilies for my email & a better variety to use for posts here. I was quite jealous of all the 'goodies' that were used to wish Kari a happy b/day.

You can right click a smiley, animated or static, then Save As a .gif to be able to use it. Try it on this one:



Photobucket is also a good site to search for free ones too.

Sorry to hear you had problems with the site. I'd let my membership lapse, probably because I didn't get a notice it was up for renewing, but before then had bought the USB drive that contained the program plus all the packs available at that time, which was actually quite a few.

I'd got it when I was using my Windows 7 machine but I'm now using them on my Windows 8 Notebook.

Joan -- You were the one who steered me to Smileycons. I downloaded it and am using them. The one thing I don't like about them is that they have the arm's and hands on them. I like the head only like here. Since you had a Smileycon subscription, I just wondered if that gave you access to a different smiley, maybe with only "Heads"? Thanks,

I like this. Thanks Britton.
