In msn messenger, 'msn emoticons' refers to the little smiley face icons. Lots of msn messenger live users do talk about msn smileys. Msn messenger gives your some free emoticons but it also allows you to use your own custom msn emoticons. A lot of cool msn emoticons have been designed especially for msn messenger by fans. The custom msn emoticons feature allows you to use animated msn emoticons up to 50x50 pixels in size.
At My emoticons we've used lots of emotions to create our msn emoticons collection. We have romance msn emotions, girlie msn emotions, bad boys msn emotions and really moody msn emotions. We even created adult emoticons and sex smileys. These msn emoticons are not for everyone but they're very funny. We wish Yahoo Messenger would let you use your own custom msn emoticons too. They would be called custom yahoo emoticons. Maybe they will soon? For now, if you use Yahoo you'll have to use the yahoo emoticons that come with the yahoo messenger. Your custom msn emoticons will not work.
What's the difference? The word 'emoticon' is a combination of the words 'emotion' and 'icon' and is exactly that - an icon used to express msn emotions. The 'smiley' or the 'smiley face' is a stylized representation of a smiling human face with the most simple smiley being a yellow circle with two small dots representing eyes. That's the theory. In reality as we look around websites similar to ours we see the words used interchangeably to mean the same thing e.g. some say free emoticons, some say free smileys but they are talking about the same images.
It seems that Europeans tend to call them 'emoticons' and Americans tend to refer to them as 'smileys' and when you get to Asia, it's different again. Confused? We try to be consistent but do use 'smiley' to refer to a yellow smiley face. Messenger users often call them 'msn smileys' or 'yahoo smileys'. There are heaps of sites that give away free smileys - Smiley Central smileys are the most popular. Pay attention, some people write the word 'smileys' as 'smilies'. It means the same thing!
