List of emoticons
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of emoticons. The items in the list are the most notable and commonly used emoticons, or textual portrayals of a writer's mood or facial expression in the form of icons. The Western use of emoticons is much different than the Eastern use, and Internet forums, such as 2channel, show expressions in their own ways. In recent times, graphic representations, both static and animated, have taken the place of traditional emoticons.

Western
The emoticon in Western style is written most often from left to right. Thus, most commonly, one will see the eyes on the left, followed by the nose and mouth. Typically, a colon is used for the eyes of a face. However, an equal sign, a number 8, and a capital letter B are also used interchangeably.
