Yahoo messenger has far to many smileys to lead you by the hand through this lot! IMHO, your best bet is to flag using the animated smileys if you're using Yahoo Messenger and talking to a buddy on Trillian.. The animated ones won't work (may do for Trillian Pro Users) and a fair amount of the Trillian smileys just don't match up to the Yahoo ones. Recommendation.. make sure you're both using Trillian to chat, saves a lot of confusion and you'll be able to pick your way through what ones actually work.
