A colon, followed by a dash, followed by a closing bracket. They resemble a smiley face.
A simple smiley

This is a list of 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 quite different from Eastern usage, and Internet forums, such as 2channel, typically, show expressions in their own ways. In recent times, graphic representations, both static and animated, have taken the place of traditional emoticons in the form of icons.

Western

The emoticon in Western style is written most often from left to right as though the head is rotated 90 degrees. Thus, most commonly, one will see the eyes on the left, followed by the nose (often not included) and mouth. Typically, a colon is used for the eyes of a face, unless a wink is to be implied (this would use a semicolon to imply one closed eye). However, an equal sign, a number 8, and a capital letter B are also used interchangeably to refer to normal eyes or those with glasses.
