Yahoo Messenger for Mac v 2.5.3 Smileys / Emoticons Mac to Windows
k, as stated previously, sending smileys Mac to Mac is a breeze but if you're a Yahoo Messenger Mac user chatting to Yahoo Messenger Windows user then this is where the smiley confusion begins and I'm afraid there is little I can do to lessen it... but as they say forewarned is forearmed :)
Notes:
• Mac users appear to have an almost limitless use of the smileys / emoticons in their IM windows
• despite some of the smileys shown above being animated for Windows users, none of the smileys available in the Mac version are animated
Based on our previous page Yahoo Messenger for Mac v 2.5.3 Smileys / Emoticons Mac to Mac we already have the basics of the drop down menu sorted out so that's what we'll start with in comparison to Yahoo Messenger for Windows

all the smileys shown above are Copyright © 2004 [Yahoo! Inc],
they made created, named, love, care and cherish them :)
Notes:
• any smileys that you see animated on this page will not be show as being animated when used in Yahoo Messenger for Mac as v2.5.3 doesn't support animated smileys in any way shape or form.
• Mac users appear to have an almost limitless use of the smileys / emoticons in their IM windows (I got up to 100+ and then boredom sent me in another direction) unlike your wee Windows pals which if they are running Yahoo Messenger is v6.0 are limited to using 6 smileys in any given message.
