Hi Phil Thank you for your very fast answer.
I really don't know what they are called. But i guess they could be called Emoji since they are sent on a iOS device. It's the users of the app that use them and I'm the one who receives them via pidgin. I'm using Windows 8 so should i be able to read the somehow? I do not care about sending emoticons back to the users. I just want to read them :) 2013/10/7 Phil Hannent <[email protected]> > Good evening, > > I am just guessing with this advice, btw. > > On 7 October 2013 15:28, Sebastian Bergström > <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hello.
