Hi Eleanor I just do them, or sometimes I simply write "smile" as it's quicker. Doing the number one twice doesn't work for me, but I'm not a predictive texter. Come to think of it, I'm not a particularly predictive person either! (smile).

Do you have a Template for it or just do it as you go?

For a smile, press colon dash and right bracket. For a sad face, do colon dash left bracket. You have to have punctuation on Talks set to none or even some to make it say "smiley face" or "sad face" though. I'm not aware of any other ones that Talks describes in this way. My son did explain that the positioning of these three symbols makes it look like a sort of smile or sad face, but I'm not brave enough to elaborate more than that as I've never seen what they look like anyway. (smiley face).

I think Carol is one person who can tell me how to do it. How is it that talks is able to recognize the image and call it a smily face. Actually if there is a down or miserable face too, and any other facial expression, just a frown or whatever I would like to know it. I am not looking for a list of moticans, just the ones one might use when sending a text. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
