How to Make the Emoticons Bigger on Yahoo

Emoticons are icons used in Yahoo Messenger to represent emotions, hence the name "Emoticons." The icons resemble smiley faces, allowing you to display an emotion by selecting a wide variety of emotions, including happiness, sadness, hugs or kisses. These Emoticons are typically used in place of text itself, as you can quickly insert the emotion you wish to display at the push of a button. As with text sizes, you can easily change the size of an Emoticon to make it larger.

Instructions

1. Log in to your Yahoo Messenger account.

2. Open an instant message for the person with whom you wish to communicate.

3. Change the text size to a larger number. The text size box will be just above the text box itself, allowing you to choose a new size from the drop down menu.

4. Click on the Emoticon you wish to use. The Emoticons are just above the text box as well, and they also include a drop down menu.

5. View the new larger size of your Emoticon, and press "Enter" to send it to the person with whom you are communicating.
