Sending emoticons has long become commonplace in all communication services, including VK. They convey emotions well to the interlocutor, can emphasize a certain thought or reaction, and replace words.

Emoji are included in the Unicode font set, as are numbers and letters. Standardized Unicode emoticons are called Emoji. But different systems may also have their own sets of emoticons.

To send an emoticon on VKontakte, in most cases it is enough to do a couple of simple steps:

This way the smiley will be added to the text along with the message. You can not only send them via PM, but also add them to comments and wall posts. for this you need:

1. Start writing a comment so that the input line opens.
2. Click on the kolobok icon in the upper right corner of the dial bar
3. Select the appropriate emoticon and left-click on it.
4. After adding it to the comment, click the Send button.

If you are writing a post on the wall or commenting on something, then regular emoticons can be placed along with the text, but stickers (larger images in sets) are sent only separately and will be sent immediately after you click on them with the left mouse button.

The set of emoticons and stickers in the mobile version of the VK website and in applications for mobile phones based on Android and iPhone does not differ from those in the web version of the site for a personal computer.

You cannot update emoticons or remove any instances from the standard set. It is also impossible to flip or otherwise edit the emoticons in the list. You can only purchase new sets of stickers or update the entire application, after which changes will occur in the list.

Frequently used ones are shown first in the list of all emoticons, for the convenience of the user.

An alternative way to insert an emoticon

If you have problems with the VK interface:

• you can’t find the picture you need in the set;
• I’m used to typing quickly, and I don’t want to look away from the mouse,

You can write a smiley code in the message. You can do it like this:

You can transfer the ones you like most to a notepad on your desktop, so that next time you can open it and quickly paste it or memorize it by heart, inserting emotions into the text without looking up from the keyboard.

VK emoticons can be considered a decoration for any post, comment and status. Happy or sad faces, as well as other pictures, can replace many words, feelings and emotions of users. In this article we will look at how and why you need to put emoticons in VK status.

Quick navigation:

What is VKontakte status

Before we begin to figure out how to put emoticons in VK status, we will study in detail what a status is and why it is needed.

The word “status” is translated from Latin as “state.” This designation can be considered abstract. It denotes a certain position of the subject, the degree of his rank in a particular area or system, area or structure. In a virtual network, status should be a message, a certain icon (including an emoticon), a phrase that is broadcast and stored together with the contact information of a visitor to a particular web resource or on his personal page.

What definition can be given to VK status?

It is customary to post the status directly on the VKontakte social network on the page; all users and friends will see it when they visit it. In this way, you will report how you are feeling at that moment in time. Status touches deeply on what you want to express to your subscribers in words and phrases. Often popular expressions, wise quotes, and interesting aphorisms are shown as statuses. Entrepreneurs and businessmen provide a link to their blog or website as a status, which provokes an increase in its traffic. Lovers demonstrate their feelings in this way. It is also possible to broadcast music files into status. Most often, songs also express their mood. Constantly changing new VKontakte statuses add fascination and interest to the user’s page as a resource that they will certainly want to visit next time. This kind of service is an excellent option for implementing many ideas. For example, if your goal is to sell something or conduct a public survey, then the status will allow you to attract people for this. If you communicate your intention on your personal page, then all active contacts on your page will be aware and will try to respond. Therefore, asking the question of what can be called the “VKontakte” status, we can say that this is a kind of board for a wide variety of announcements.

How to write a status on your page

To translate into virtual reality the opportunity to express your feelings and emotions in the form of a status, you need to be on your page. Under your personal contact information there is a line “Change status”. By clicking on it with the left mouse button, a field for entering your status will open. Here you should enter the text of the status that you want to broadcast. If you check the “Tell friends” checkbox, then subscribers who follow the activity of your friends and their communities will see your message in the news feed.

How to create a cool status for VK

Many account owners are thinking about what is the best status to set on their VK page. In fact, there can be no definite answer here. It all depends directly on your own interests and desires. If you don’t have your own ideas, then it makes sense to turn to some techniques that will allow you to achieve a truly interesting status. Cool or vice versa statuses with meaning for “VK” at this time are what many are trying to find, so as not to invent them themselves and not invent sayings in their own way. We can conclude that users of the popular network lack originality. In this case, you can add emoticons from your phone or computer, thus diversifying the page. Let's try to figure out what can be entered into the status line of a social network.

Text is the first thing you should think about before you decide to put a status on your page.

The first option that can be considered is to write a regular text that is “spinning” in your head - what you think about and what you feel. If you have no idea what kind of status you can set on the page, then this is a fairly suitable step. In any case, this is what most users do. In addition, you can write about a specific person (what you think about him, what you feel about him, what you want to get from him). The main thing is to do it with soul, with all your heart. You should never hope that such a status will bring you fame and popularity, or that due to it you will receive praise from the outside, unlike those that contain emoticons in the VK status. Most statuses will simply fill in the blank lines of an account. If you want to really cause a stir, then you need to find cool statuses for VKontakte that can attract a lot of attention.

Create cool and interesting statuses for your VK page to attract more user attention and ensure a constant flow of visitors to your page! To do this, you can use various symbols and signs, and broadcasting music along with the message is also a great addition. Experiment and imagine - and your public announcement will be original.

Ready-made quotes for VK status

If you still decide not to bother with inventing a status yourself, then use well-known sayings and quotes, and don’t forget to insert VK emoticons in the status. (Cm. )

This is a fairly popular technique. And, to be honest, it is widespread throughout all social networks. It is important to choose the right topic. It is best to do this based on your own interests (See), current experiences and personal character traits.

For girls, statuses are more suitable - quotes that talk about love or feelings. For men – about intentions, goals and their implementation. The most popular are quotes from philosophers, famous writers and other thinkers. Let's say you can enter the saying of Albert Einstein, Blok, Pushkin, Haruki Murakami, and so on. It is worth noting that recently more and more people who want to acquire status prefer wise and loud phrases from films, cartoons and quotes from fictional characters. Also a good option. The main thing in this matter is to show ingenuity and intelligence. To increase interest, you need to choose something funny and really interesting.

Dilute the text with emoticons

Emoticons in VK status also have quite a lot of weight, because it is the pictures of emoticons that can say more than even the most sophisticated text can do.

The technique of diluting the text in the status with emoticons is loved by young people. It adds originality and unusualness to the page. Just something that will cause a storm of emotions in the page visitor. This is what quite a lot of users are chasing.

In order to provide your status with pictures there is nothing complicated, you just need to insert emoticons with a code, but despite this, many people find it difficult to do this right away. We'll look at how to use emoticons in statuses below.

How to put emoticons in VK status

Emoticons, as mentioned above, can be considered a fairly common option for statuses, or an addition to statuses. But for some, installing it is not so easy. It is quite possible to create a smiley using symbols, but then it will not be attractive enough. But multi-colored “smile” pictures are a completely different matter. In order to embed them in the text or separately in the status line, you need to visit the VKontakte emoticon database, which is designated as “VK emoticon codes” and copy the code of the selected symbol into the status line ( set of signs). It is still invisible to the user, but is recognized by the system as a picture. The image will be visible to everyone when you click the “Save” button in the status bar.

Where can I get all the codes that can be inserted into statuses? In Specialized groups on VKontakte and other Internet resources. They are called “VK Emoticons”. Add some unique artwork to the beginning, middle, or end of your text to add creativity and uniqueness. For example, you can easily draw a heart or a ring, a kitten or a couple in love there. Fantasize and unleash your inner creativity! Cool statuses for VK are the personal work of everyone!

How to put an emoticon in VK status from your phone

It’s no secret that quite a lot of VK users visit the site directly from their phones (See), but this absolutely should not limit people from the functionality that can be used by computer owners. In order to put emoticons in VK status, you can use a special program, or use symbols.

To insert any emoticon, it is enough to write its code in the text; before sending or saving the text, the emoticon will look like a set of characters, but after sending and saving it will take on a graphical appearance and its image will appear.

Emoticon codes for VK

If we talk about emoticons that can be inserted into statuses, then there are a very large number of them - for every taste. The variety of pictures allows you to express any of your emotions in the form of pictures.

Below are symbolic codes so that you can select and copy the code and use them to insert emoticons in VK status or any post, message, comment, use table in VK.

After you add a smiley, you should refresh the page so that it is fully displayed. To do this, you need to click the “refresh” button in your browser or simply use the F5 key.

VKontakte has restrictions on the number of emoticons used in a message. No more than 100, if you do not follow this rule, only the first 100 will be available, the rest will not be displayed. Fortunately, the threshold is quite high and it is difficult to imagine who might need to use emoticons in a VK status or message, more than 100 emoticons in one status or comment.

If a code appears instead of a smiley, even after the update, you need to check whether you copied the code completely and whether it is not attached to a word. And edit the comment.

Symbols in VK status

If you don’t want to display your status with pictures, but you also don’t want to entice a visitor with text alone, you can use the well-known symbol method. Just like for smiley pictures, symbols also have their own tables that can be found on the Internet.

There, just open the list of emoticons and select the one you need. Recently, the developers have added this function for wall posts (see). But with status it’s more complicated. But it's also possible. Now I'll show you

how to put an emoticon in VKontakte status

, and into a new entry. First in the post We go to the wall and click the mouse cursor in the block

"Anything new"

. Find the smiley face icon in the top right corner. Hover your mouse over it. A list of emoticons will appear. Choose any of them. To insert it, simply click on it with the cursor.

It will be added to the message. Write the required text and add the required content. After that, publish the entry by clicking the “Submit” button.

The smiley face will be added to the wall.

😃

Copy the code below, go to your page and click on the status bar. Paste the code there and save (see).

After that, we refresh the pages and see the result.

Emoticons have become an integral part of almost any correspondence. Many people no longer describe their emotions; they convey them directly through small images.

By the way, they have become so popular that they are constantly developing and receiving updates in the form of new symbols. Social networks also keep up with new trends and offer to insert smiles (aka emoji) into posts, on walls and in comments. Well, those who want to stand out from the rest can add a small picture directly to their status.

Previously, to perform such an action it was necessary to know a special image code. But time passes and everything becomes much simpler.

Emoticons on VKontakte

How to insert emoticons on VKontakte

It all starts with emojis in private messages. It is worth noting that this method is applicable to all moments when you need to express your emotions through just a few images.

Emoticons in messages

So, when you find yourself in private messages, you should pay attention to the emoticon image. It will be located on the right side of the message entry line. Here, in addition to the standard images of the “yellow face”, there will be other pictures. To see them, just scroll down the list. Along with the usual emoji, there are stickers here that can also be used to maintain a conversation or embellish the moment after receiving great (or not so great) news.

Having decided on the most suitable emoticons, you need to select them. Click the left mouse button (touchpad) on the icon and watch it appear in text form. Having typed the message to the end, all that remains is to press the “Send” button or the “Enter” key located on the keyboard.

Emoji for comments

Emojis in comments open in the same way. Here they can be used for their intended purpose or sent to one of those who managed to comment on the post. After opening the required tab, first of all you will see the symbols that you used last time. This greatly simplifies the search for your favorite emotions, since they are brought to the fore. At the same time, less interesting options remain somewhere overboard.

Smileys for entries

It is impossible to ignore posts for general viewing. You can’t do without stormy reactions, beautiful words and a large number of hashtags. Of course, the post would be incomplete without adding a few themed emoticons. Before you post your finished version for viewing, be sure to look at all the available emoji options. The overwhelming number of people simply do not want to scroll below, looking for the most suitable option. But in vain, with the help of emoticons you can tell a full-fledged story that can be awarded a thousand likes.

Before publishing, pay attention to the images of the smiling circle. You should click on it again to see the entire list of available symbols. Don’t forget that their quantity is strictly limited, but there will be more than enough for a full-fledged post with history.

Funny status symbols

Well, the last thing in line is a smiley in the status. As was already said at the beginning of the article, previously the social network did not have the ability to freely add images to the status. This feature appeared relatively recently along with a change in the site interface.

Go to your page and go to status. If you have not installed it yet, it will say “Change status”. Click on it. So an input line will appear in front of you. On the right will be a face with a smile.

Click on it again and select symbols suitable for the status. The limitations imposed by the system should be noted. The status can consist of only 100 characters. This applies to both letters and numbers, and emoticons. Therefore, try to correctly distribute the free space.

The only information space where emoticons have not yet found their way into is articles. This function is a recent innovation on the part of the social network and, according to the developers, only exceptional materials should be collected there, where there is no place for additional characters. But no matter how ironic it may sound, they are all available in the form of codes that can be found on the World Wide Web. However, if you are going to release a serious work, we advise you to avoid emoticons, because all the desire to appear serious will sink into oblivion.

Put several spaces in a row

We all understand perfectly well that creativity cannot be hidden, even using emoticons alone. For example, among emoji there are a large number of different pictures that combine well with each other, but for this you need to add several spaces.

The problem is that if you use the standard solution and just click on the space bar several times, the system will automatically remove them. And then the resulting result will be completely broken - the emoticons will appear at the beginning of the input line.

The standard solution to the problem using the “Alt+255” combination no longer works and in the input window it is displayed as a standard space bar. Advanced users use the code: 　.

Please note that while you type it will appear as normal characters, but once sent it will immediately convert to a space. You can enter sequentially one after another without adding spaces. This way we get infinite spaces that will be visible to all users. This will allow you to create real masterpieces using only the characters from the existing emoticons.

Among the interesting features, there is a system for replacing a word or emoticon with a sticker corresponding to the user’s emotions. It works like this: at the beginning of entering a message, if a word or emoji has a direct interpretation to one of the stickers, its image appears slightly higher. This always allows you to stay on trend, communicating more meaningfully with minimal time investment.

But unlike text messages, stickers take up one message. That is, when sending them, they cannot be supplemented with information, which is slightly inconvenient, because then you have to prepare in advance an additional speech about a similar character and the user with whom the dialogue is taking place.

Conclusion

As it became clear from the article, emoticons on VKontakte play a leading role in communicating or expressing one’s emotions without aids. It is becoming easier to use them, and sooner or later there will be support for them when writing opinion articles. Even though they can already be displayed there by entering a special code, this is much more inconvenient than an informative list completed in a certain order.

As for their development in the future, they will confidently remain in their positions, from time to time supplemented by new images based on a particular event. For example, some services add several emoji to choose from. In particular, this applies to labels with people, because the issue of skin color is now more acute than ever.

However, the most important thing is that now you can attach emoticons to any post or message. And also it will not do without the original status.
