Hello Friends,

Smiley or a Happy Face is a stylish representation of smiling human face by a yellow color circle(generally) with eyes and lips on them.

Smileys, although so small still add so much meaning to everything..They represent our feelings and expressions so well.We all often chat and mail our friends and love to add everywhere. They are becoming an important part of our life.They present us lively in front of others to whom we are talking online..They also refresh our mood and takes away all the dullness. We find smileys everywhere Posters, T-shirts, Caps, Cups, Cards, Stickers etc. They are so expressive that everyone loves to own them in everything. They are most commonly used with phrases like " KEEP SMILING" or "HAVE A HAPPY DAY".

The most commonly used smileys are :) and :( which clearly shows the two extreme moods of persons which keep flipping whole day. Although now a days we have smileys for all the different moods of a person.

The very earliest known examples of the graphic are attributed to Harvey Ball, a commercial artist in Worcester, Massachusetts with the aim to boost up the morale of the employees. It was further used in 1963, in a children cartoon series titled The Funny Company airing on television, which featured a version of the smiley on the caps worn by the animated children.

The graphic was popularized in the early 1970s by Bernard and Murray Spain, who seized upon it in a campaign to sell novelty items. The two produced buttons as well as coffee mugs, T-shirts, bumper stickers and many other items emblazoned with the symbol and the phrase "Have a happy day"

Today we can find thousands and thousands of smileys all over the web offered by different sites. Through their discovery we can realize the diverse moods and expressions of human beings.

Smileys are my personal favorite and I love to add smileys to my signature many times. They have always helped me in my gloomy days and happy days. They have always inspired me to keep smiling in every situation and winning them :)
