Anybody have a good kaomoji pack that I could use? I've spent a good half hour looking around now and I can't seem to find anything that good that isn't dead.

Kao means face in Japanese, Kaomoji could be loosely translated as emoticons (although is more something like "facial expression characters"), Either way they are just like our own using punctuations symbols like =), ;P, XD, etc, but taking advantage of the extensive library of 2 byte characters.

You can use this pack deadgye:

Kaomoji
(I trust you can read Japanese but if you can't just click on red banner with the big "download" and follow the image instructions)

That pack has all the common ones (don't remember exactly but the total is over 600):

( ^-^)_旦~
( ̄。 ̄)y-~~
Ψ(`∇´)Ψ
ヽ(´―`)ノ

Cultural note:
- the kanji for Kaomoji is 顔文å—
- In my personal experience Japanese dislike people how pretend to be Japanese by writing kana or using kaomojis, is better to introduce yourself as foreigner always and as you may know with English is quite easy to point who is native and who isn't.

I hope this helps.

Ken.

i have this bookmarked if it helps.

(i hate to actually say this, but since i'm so nice i'll note that, no, this does not link you to a video of pants wrestling all-stars; rather, it links to a page of 顔文å—. if you'd rather see some スパンã‚ング though, i'm the man to ask)

Thank you, but your application does not meet our criteria at this time! We will, however, keep your application on file so we can laugh at it regularly.

Also, apparently I finally kicked over 3.50 Karma. Next stop: 20k, where Sage goes in every response.

Thanks a lot. I had gone through my old bookmarks but all of them no longer worked, even after internet archive searching them. I've gotten back pretty much all the emoticons I normally use now. Just need to try and get that one table throw one back and everything will be back to normal :3

edit: Actually.. that's in the list but it's not coming up. I'll just blame it on me not restarting right now. If that doesn't fix the problem I'm sure I'll figure it out later.

No, that's Jumanji. You're thinking of the boiler man from Spirited Away.

Well, he was on my server after all, skilling up his club skill for his "uber BLM" on the beach along side low level parties trying to exp... how could I forget that? Smiley: lol

Surprisingly, Google does a halfway decent job translating it.

This is my favorite one: http://club.pep.ne.jp/~hiroette/en/facemarks/body.html

I use the "ouch" one in my Convert macro.

This helps greatly. I've been using windower's IME for maybe 2-3 months now (boy can it get annoying at times), and last month I activated the dictionary that has the components used in all the kaomoji. But I didn't have a dict with a bunch of them already included. ヽ(´ー`)ノ yay.

It seems easy to edit in your own entries into an existing dicionary file, so I might add a couple that aren't in there, like (@∂_∂) 凸(▼▼メ), etc.

Personally I don't think any JP's have been upset with my use of kaomoji, but it's probably because I can speak enough to communicate w/ them in hiragana.
