Putting Special Characters in Facebook Comments



Would it be fun if we could put special characters into our Facebook comments? It is easier to make those lovely yellow spherical creatures in chat but unfortunately that is not possible in Facebook comments at the mean time. The comments use plain text to save some memory. If it uses the basic plain text, then we can put those special characters in the old fashioned way by using the "Alt + Number". They may be black and very simple but that would nevertheless add a little spice and emotion into our shout outs.

Each special character has a corresponding number code. Press the "Alt" key while typing the number code in the numeric key pad of your computer. The characters with codes from 1 to 25 are listed below but you can find the others by randomly selecting a number while pressing the "Alt" key. Enjoy!
