Making Smillies

If you want to learn to make smillies you've come to the right page! Read below for instructions on how to make your very own smillies!

1. First open up a drawing program. I like using mspaint best for smillies. Then use the circle tool or draw your own. circle.
2. Next add details to the outline of the circle. For example if you didn't want to keep your smillie as a circle you could change it into a pikachu head or something like that.
3. After that colour your smillie. But don't add any expressions to it just yet.
4. Now that you have coloured your smillie copy it. Paste it as many times as you want smillies. For this tutorial I'll just do 5 smillies.
5. After you have pasted them all out you can start putting emotion into them. The reason why i didn't have you start before and just erase the emotion from the smillie is i find this way easier.
6. Now you should have a set of emotions. But wait! There's still one final step to do. Crop and save each emotion so they can be used later on your site or whatever.
7. This step is optional but i find that this step is good to do. Next you can use a site like iaza to make your smillie backgrounds transparent or use a program that can do that.
