This has been one of the really famous plug-ins that I wrote a while ago (more than 11K downloads as of 17th June, 2009). The intent was to use smileys in my posts easily from the blogging tool itself. Since I used Microsoft - Windows Live Writer (which IMHO, is the best blog editor currently) I was quite easily attracted by the plug-in model it exposed.

Later on, I created more plug-ins which pretty much uses the same code base, called Fancy Bullets plug-in, and Quotations plug-in.

I don’t want to post this software anywhere else now (earlier, it was…), since it doesn’t give me full control. So, here you go… download, and enjoy!

Once you are done, you should be able to see this in your Windows Live Writer…

Click on it, and you will be shown a list of different smileys…

If you like, you can also add custom smileys (or URLs for future reference)

Hope this helps,
Rahul
