Render smilies like as icons
Smilies are common in e-mail messages and bulletin board posts.
They are used to convey an emotion, such as a smile :-) or a frown :-( .
This plugin automatically converts certain smilies to a nice small icon.
Here is the list of smilies supported by this plugin.
To add others, attach new icons to this topic and tweak the table below.
If possible, use single quotes for html attributes
