Emoticons

Emoticons or emotes are little faces and symbols that can symbolize how Penguins feel. They usually appear in speech bubbles accessed by clicking on the "Emote Menu" or by pressing "E", followed by various keys.

The "Skull emotion" was deleted, along with the heart emote- however, due to popular demand, the heart emote came back a month later. According to Club Penguin: "There are plenty of other ways to show you don't like something besides using the skull." One of them could be the tongue emote. There is also a special sun emote which can be found by pressing E and D together.

Trivia

 * All of the emoticons were designed by Rsnail.
 * There is an Emotes Background.
 * There are some fan made emotes made using the keyboard.
 * One emote, the Skull, has been removed because penguins were using the skull in a bad way, like threatening of murder or reference to death.
 * Another emote, the Laughing Emote (or the Smile Emote) was revamped in October 2007 as the old one looked very similar to another smile emote on Yahoo.com
 * However, in The Awesome Official Guide to Club Penguin, which was published in 2010, shows the old Laughing Emote, despite its revamping.
 * Most penguins use the Heart Emoticon to show that they love someone.
 * If ten penguins use the smile Emoticon they will get a Stamp.
 * The Cookie Emote, Freezing Emote, and Falalala Emote will only come for the Holiday Party 2012, disappointing some players.
