That is the question! So, I guess I am really asking about how all the wonderful and silly little emoticons I see here are produced? Is this a function on your keyboard, or phone? Where do you get them? I am just curious in case I decide I want to be more creative and express my happy, sad, mad, depressed, discouraged, angry, hungry, silly, laughing, bored, meh, etc., etc., etc., face! LOL!!

I see someone has explained it to you already. I don't use them very often.

It took me a while to figure it out for myself. After putting myself to the challenge I figured it out.

Your post has made me look closely at my use of these things. I appear to have become over reliant on two. These being and .
Looks like I need to start displaying more emotion. Could be difficult though, what with being diagnosed a psychopath!!
Just kidding. I haven't been diagnosed. Yet!!

I would also like to know that, or does myLot produce emoijis because I love using emojing since they are cute and sometimes, they explain better what I feel when talking to someone. As I have trouble expressing myself through words.

@jahunt Oh. They pretty much resemble the emoticons on a forum where I usally stay! Cool. Now I know how to put some.
And they actually use the same code! Cool!

Sometimes I emote, sometimes I do not. I see your question has been answered.

I don't know where you get them, but they are coming after me. Yikes!

I imagine your question has been answered by now, that it is the link that says "myLot Code," where one can go to find all sorts of emojis. I like to use emojis once in a while when I think they'll be helpful in making my point.

I just figured it out yesterday through the help of a fellow myLotter. It's fun but I'd rather use it sparingly.
