Google Adds New Smilies to Gmail Chat
Update: For a complete list of Gmail chat emoticons, including the new category four smileys and the new robot and poo smileys see Gmail Chat Smileys.
With the recent update to Gmail chat, Google has added (both round and squared) graphic smilies. What’s more, some new hidden smilies are showing up.
Old-timey smilies are still the default.
The standard old-timey animated text smilies are still very popular amongst quite a few Gmail users, and are still the default set. Now you can view them in the smiley popup window (accessible from the lower right corner of the chat window).
Of course this window does not show the hidden smilies, which are detailed below.
New round and square faces are now available.
Now, however, you can switch to rounded yellow and squared yellow smiley faces by clicking the appropriate tab in the smiley popup window.
What do you think of these new smilies? Twelve standard emoticons in three flavors. Wow. Kind of underwhelming.
What a fancy smiley interface you have.
Popups. Tabs. Well, the new smilies do add a bit of color to chat sessions, but they feel kind of limited compared to, say, Yahoo emoticons. The tabbed popup interface seems a bit complicated just to select from the twelve standard emoticons.
Along those lines, the difference between the original faces and the round yellow faces is pretty stark, but between yellow round and yellow square is awfully small. Really, why bother? Has there been a serious clamoring for square smiley faces? It would be better to include Japanese smilies (face marks), like (-_-).
Hidden Gmail Chat Emoticons
Though sporting such a limited set of standard smilies, Gmail chat redeems itself by including some hidden emoticons. A slew of them turned up in comments to our Gmail Chat Fun article from last year.
The original hidden emoticons are still there. The equalizers ( =/ =( =p ), wince ( >.< ), the monkey ( 
|) ), the devil ( }:-) ), the heart (<3 ), and the ever-popular more cowbell ( +/’\ ).
But now some new hidden emoticons are showing up. The heart is becomes a broken heart if you put a slash through it ( </3 ). The kiss face is here ( :* ) as well as an alternate ( 
). And, oddly enough, a crab has appeared ( V.v.V ).
Update: as ev noted in the comments, there is also a pig. :)
Update 2: and Crystal points out a mustached man. :{
Update 3: added the alternate kiss face.
Update 4: added the robot and poo smileys. [:|] and ~@~
All of the hidden emoticons have their filled-in versions as well. Check out that monkey.
Have you found any others? If so, post them here.
Suggestions For The Gmail Chat Developers
First up, the hidden emoticons. You have the devil, so why not the angel or halo emoticon? O:) Really, it only seems right. Also, the chicken. ~:> Why on earth is there no chicken in the menagerie? You have monkeys and crabs, but no chickens?
Second, there is a UI design issue here. Take a look at that smiley interface. It’s nice and gets the job done, but something about it is just out of whack. You have three tabs on a popup panel on the popup chat window, but a dearth of smilies grace each tab. However, the big problem here is the similarity between the round and square faces. It’s like you give us the option of a pogo stick or a light gray rocket or a dull silver rocket. How about original smilies, yellow round smilies, and Japanese facemarks? Now that would be cool. And it would balance the choices a bit.
Overall, a welcome upgrade
The new smilies are welcome, the gee-whiz interface is okay — but it makes us a bit hungry for more tweaks and enhancements.

so cool
6 bill // Dec 16, 2007 at 9:09 am
@FrozenPandaMan –
:) does look like a cow as well as a pig, but if you turn on the graphic smilies it looks a whole lot more like a pig to me. Thanks for the list, but I don’t see anything new there. In fact, it’s missing the broken heart.
@moose – XD ? Not a smiley in gmail as far as I can tell.
7 Solanum Tuberosum // Dec 27, 2007 at 8:58 pm
You forgot (\m/) Rock on.
8 bill // Dec 28, 2007 at 10:17 am
@Solanum, \m/ rock out is not a hidden emoticon; it’s listed in the table published by Google, also listed in the Gmail Chat Fun article here. Thanks though.
9 Vincent // Jan 4, 2008 at 5:10 pm
=/’\ is cool, too
10 animation freek // Jan 14, 2008 at 6:22 am
what is the | for the monkey face
what is the letter or something?
11 bill // Jan 14, 2008 at 9:36 am
@animation freek – the | is the vertical bar, or shift-backslash, above the Enter key, on a normal US keyboard.
12 bill // Jan 14, 2008 at 9:38 am
@Vincent – not sure what that is, but it doesn’t work for me in Gmail chat.
13 Jed // Feb 8, 2008 at 5:30 pm
>-[= should be Mario green pipe and the red spotted pipe plant ^_^ totally
14 Chunmei // Feb 11, 2008 at 6:35 pm
OK, the DEVIL —> }:-) is now square! Since like 5:30 PM February 11th, 2008! By Chunmei!
15 Chunmei // Feb 11, 2008 at 6:45 pm
Guess what? The devil is back to normal. For a second, it was square!

16 bill // Feb 11, 2008 at 11:17 pm
@Jed – um, not sure where you’re getting your pipe or plants. Not from Gmail chat, that’s for sure.
@Chunmei – yeah, that’s the squared smiley style. Just click the little face in the lower right and choose the squared one.
17 kingofk13 // Feb 24, 2008 at 1:38 pm
the square devil still works….
18 someone // Mar 5, 2008 at 10:43 am
do you know where the back slash key is
19 bill // Mar 6, 2008 at 7:22 pm
@someone – yes; see above if you’re having trouble finding your backslash key: “shift-backslash, above the Enter key, on a normal US keyboard.”
20 someone // Mar 10, 2008 at 9:13 am
Thanx !!!!!:D
21 someone // Mar 10, 2008 at 9:15 am
Do you know smilies other than the above?
(the chart)
22 bill // Mar 10, 2008 at 4:18 pm
@someone – well, of course there are the standard ones, listed here in Gmail Chat Fun.
23 jeff // Mar 27, 2008 at 7:30 pm
The coolest one I have found to date is this…
\m/ >.< \m/
It does the “wince” face with two “Hands of Rock”
I figured it was too awesome to keep to myself and have already shared it with all my friends on gmail chat!
24 chocomichie // Mar 27, 2008 at 9:48 pm
ok i heard there was a duck!!! and that =/’\ dousnt work!
25 bill // Mar 28, 2008 at 8:33 am
@jeff – nice combo
@chocomichie – I have not seen the duck, and =/'\ doesn’t work because the emoticon is +/'\. What is =/'\ anyway, “the same amount of cowbell?” +/'\ does work (“more cowbell”).
26 Nicole // Mar 29, 2008 at 10:21 am
ok, how do u make the “/” mark go the other way?!
27 bill // Mar 30, 2008 at 12:14 am
@Nicole – we are joking, right?
28 Rod // Apr 4, 2008 at 11:37 am
How do you make a blush face?
my guess was @’.'@
but that does not work
29 bill // Apr 5, 2008 at 10:41 am
@Rod – tell someone something embarrassing? Seriously, if it’s not listed, I don’t know it. If you find out, or if anyone else knows, feel free to list them here. Thanks.

61 Global Warming Girl // Oct 19, 2008 at 1:38 pm
Wow! Some of these people are so dumb! Gmail chat is fun, but some of the signs are out of whack and need an opposite (devil : angel..etc). Thanks for posting all the emotions, and thanks for responding for all these comments because I can tell some of them are, “Where have you been?” kind of questions. Thanks again and Go Gmail!!
62 bill // Oct 19, 2008 at 2:07 pm
@GWGirl – Hey no problem. You’re right about Google needing to add some emoticons, esp the angel. I’ve kind of stopped replying to most of the comments. It’s just so inane. You think some of these comments are lame, you should see all the junk comments i don’t approve.

*Jake: it doesn’t shrink, and if you look at it the period in it is the same. the only diffrence is that it has a line on top of it, and that is because u put – around it. Thats supposed to cross it out. haha.

Guys, I think you are too obsessed with chat smileys…When are your contacts on anyways? How much times in a hundred can you chat with them? Think about it…unless you have an exception.

190 Rae // Jan 8, 2010 at 9:30 am
i suggest you suggest a cow. why the cowbell and not the cow? the blush face is a good idea, and i think you left out that the \m/ is also a radio on different settings. and why are there more emoticons on gmail email than gmail chat?
191 Jaclyn // Jan 15, 2010 at 11:15 pm
i looove the pig!! ITS SOO CUTE!!!! i also like the crap haha its cute too!
