EMOTICON SPEECH BUBBLES

Sure, emoticons are somewhat more "expressive" than text, but when you look at them they're just plain numb smiley faces, right? Don't you wish you could add a little more depth to eg. the sarcastic smiley, or the emoticon with his tongue sticking out? We created this simple tool for you so you can make the standard MSN emoticons as well as your own custom emoticons TALK... or THINK.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Your emoticon speech bubble can have a maximum of four bubbles (at least for now). You don't have to use all four of them, just leave the extra input fields empty (If you selected a bubble type by mistake, click the Undo button.)
- You can insert a short pause by selecting the big red cross instead of a bubble type.
- You can create conversations between two emoticons, or a monologue of one. Provided are two speech bubbles (left/right) and two thought bubbles (left/right).
- Per bubble you can only enter a limited number of characters: 32 if you selected the small font size, 5 if you selected large.
- Loading the optional color palette can take quite long (up to 30 seconds). Just leave the field empty if you want to use the default color black.
- When you're ready, hit the Create My Bubble button, right-click/save as the result (if you're satisfied) and add it as a custom emoticon to MSN/Windows Live Messenger.
