Some of you have the best looking emoticons

I don't find the ones here very attractive. Do you mind sharing where you get them from?

Mine just happens to be a pic of my boy when he was little. But I chose this one because it was a head-shot only so that it could translate well in such a small space.

Speaking of small space - that is the key. You need to choose a pic, whether you took the shot or you took it from the internet, that would show up in such a small field so if it's a person/animal it needs to be a close up and not a full body shoty.

If it's something else, make sure that the picture is bright and clear. I've seen pics, used as avatars, that could be cleaned up and sharpened, making them show up a lot better. But it's not nice to critique I guess so I don't try to help.

BTW, you can just put into a search field (I use Google so I'd pick 'images') and type in whatever it is, for example: baby goats - or whatever you want to see pics of and you'll probably get a zillion choices.

Can't lose with birdies! I love birdies so much that I probably take 50 to 100 pics a day sometimes, of the birdies around my house.

CB, I just posted something on Pet Lovers about birdies... and cats...

I just google different ones, like "laughing emoticons", or "bird emoticons", whatever I want to find. Once I find some I like, I usually remember the website that has them, but I guess I should start saving them... then I won't have to go back and look for them agan!

I did save this one... it's one of my favorites!

That's a cute birdie, Cherry. You could crop him down a bit and he might make a brilliant avatar.
