ICQ 8

You can use emoticons in your messages to better express your feelings or to brighten your conversation partner's day with a funny face.

To send an emoticon, in the conversation window click on the  "smiley" icon. A list of emoticons will open. Click on the desired emoticon to insert it into the message. You can also switch between the tabs below the list to find the emoticon that's right for you.

In addition to emoticons, entertaining "toons" will delight their recipients. You can share a wide range of emotions with your conversation parter, from "You've bored me to death" to "I want to be with you!" and "I love!".



To send someone a tool, click on the  "toon" icon.  

A brief title of each toon is shown when the mouse is hovered over it. To preview a toon before sending it, click "Preview". You can also switch between the tabs below the list to find the toon that's right for you. After you decide which toon to send, click on it.

Note that the Flash Player (version 8+) is required to view toons.
