For those that haven't noticed, its my 26th Birthday today, so here's to a great Quarter Century of life, and a better one to come!
 
¡good job on another revolution! it's all about celebrating the fifth anniversary of your 21st birthday!
 
Don't tell her! She's already got the emoticons to abuse!
 
they're all alt-codes. you hold down the alt key and type a sequence out on the number pad (listing such as http://www.coloryourprofyle.com/phade/alt.html are sometimes a good resource) or, you can cut and paste from a character directory (http://evolt.org/article/ala/17/21234/). they're useful if you often write in Spanish or other languages which use more complex diacritical marks (or, if you're hopelessly eccentric, like yours truly). there are actually quite a few different code standards which result in the same symbol

as for the above specific symbols
  • inverted question mark (¿): alt-168
    inverted exclamation mark (¡): alt-173

You can do a search on your PC for something called Character Map it's normally in your System Tools it shows you the codes for alot of different symbols. ÃÆÑ see! :twisted:
 
Oh and sorry I didn't check the posted til today happy bday Lurin.
 
you've got to have "num-lock" on; you must key the sequence on your number pad, not on the number row; hold down the alt key while pressing all three numbers; after you key in the sequence and release alt, the character will appear

and, sorry Dave, for jacking your thread. once again, ¡WELCOME TO THE OLD AND FOGEY CLUB!
 
I'll save ya a seat at the clubhouse Marcena, course I'll have to start calling you Murtle....
 
Yep, they'd catch onto you too quickly if I called you by one of those. Alternately we could use Edna, but you just don't look like an Edna to me.
 
whatever, all you Reagan (and Bushy) babies don't know the meaning of Old Fogey, you rapscallion whipper snappers. why, in MY DAY...
 
They had to walk 5 miles to school in 6 feet of snow, up hill...both ways. Then ask them in a yr and it will be 8 miles in 10 ft. of snow.
 
er--i lost my train of thought. must be time for my pills. mind you, not the pills you kids take these days, but real pills that have to be taken with oceans of water and a shoe-horn. why one time i was taking pills with Methuselah, in those days he went by Melvin on account of his scorn for rutabagas imported from Guatemala, and he said he remembered when pills were made from cat-hairs specially braided with burro whiskers which i thought reminded me of the old hair-lipped yella cow we kept in the back part of our cave with my twelve brothers and two sisters and i, ya understand, not the cave i had later on the side of Pompei, the one we shared with the pterodactyls and the mammoths which really aren't as ornery as they let on, unless of course they get a snoot-full of rot-gut, not the rot-gut my ole pappy used to make out of boiled yak-spleen but the cowboy boot rot-gut they cooked in the oak stumps out behind Johnson's first place, the one what got burned down on devil's night by that band of neo-nazi hair-care specialists who trafficked in impacted molars. but, the point is, er--¿what did you ask again?
