Complete list of Facebook Chat Emoticons

Submitted by Caleb Brown on Wed, 23/04/2008 - 11:07pm.

While playing with Facebook Chat I wondered if it supported emoticons. Turns out it does. But when I tried the >:-) emoticon (a 'devil') and saw it printed as boring text, I wondered, "what smilies does facebook actually support?"

So with the help of Safari and some javascript hacking I present to you a complete list of facebook emoticons.
