now i am really confused. the link you gave me to download the free emoticons for the yahoo messenger doesnt work. it takes me to some website about some pictures and layouts but there is nothing about emoticons for the YM mesenger. i was only able to find something about msn and aol but not yahoo. i wanted to get some nice and funny emotion icons for my bf so i can surprise him. tell me where i can get them and install them for free. i started downloading the once you sent me but they dont install properly and when i start the yahoo messenger it doest come up i cant see them anywhere i also i have a live.com account can i use them for that too?
