Basic Smileys

:-) Your basic smiley. This smiley is used to inflect a sarcastic or joking statement since we can't hear voice inflection over e-mail.

;-) Winky smiley. User just made a flirtatious and/or sarcastic remark. More of a "don't hit me for what I just said" smiley.

:-( Frowning smiley. User did not like that last statement or is upset or depressed about something.

:-I Indifferent smiley. Better than a `:-(' but not quite as good as a `:-)'.

Something is up with the forum though, because all of the " " signs have come out with a bizarre letter instead.

Ah well.
I'm getting back into the Log in The Creek, taking a while though.

There! I just finished reading all six episodes. Excellent. That is something I would have come up with 5 years ago. Of course, it wouldn't have been written as well as that.
