Silly Onion Emoticons for Blogger

Alright! I have forgotten all about giving the instructions on how to add these cool emoticons in your blog posts. I apologize for the delay. I thought I’d be able to house the pictures or gifs in my own account but couldn’t find the time for it. So, for the meantime you can use this, which is the one that I’m using as well. Anyway, the JavaScript is still my own rendition.

Following the instructions would be really easy.

1. You need to have Firefox as your browser. Yeah, that means download it. I have no other options to give so you really need this if you want the emoticons.

2. If or when you already have the Firefox up, then download the Greasemonkey extension. This won’t take long really. (Note: You will have to restart the Firefox window after installing the Greasemonkey.) After restarting your Firefox window, you should look at the monkey’s face found somewhere at the bottom of the window. That monkey should be smiling (meaning the extension is activated).

3. After that click here Andianka's Silly Onion Emoticons and press install. (if you'd rather have the old style emoticon that's similar to yahoo's smileys, you can use this guys script instead: Basic Smileys. then click install.)

4. Don’t forget to give me a link back!

When you’re done, you can now go to your Blogger’s compose mode to check the smileys waving and doing their silly actions in front of you for the choosing.

Note: The emoticons can be a bit too big compared to the text so you might experience irregular line breaks when you use it in between the paragraphs. You can either resize the emoticons manually to your desired size or you can place it somewhere in your entry where it wouldn’t be able to disturb your article’s construction (like on the very start and ending of your entry).

If you have presets on compose mode, you’d notice that the images (or emoticons) pops in at the very last part of your entry. Simply drag the emoticons to where you want to place it and you’re done.

That’s it! Enjoy the silly onion emoticons!
