Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Honestly, we should be adapting more non English letters into our emoticons. Ü and ö are great examples, but :þ or :Þ looks way more like a tongue sticking out than :p does (though, I said non English, and þorn is, technically, an English letter...

Ÿ could be something... I'm not sure what, but something. Potentially pornographic...

ẞ or ß could be some kind of sideways boobs... Maybe an ass?

ð could be eyes if doubled ð.ð sunglasses: ð-ð

Ð could be gap-toothed smiley. =Ð nerd smiley: 8Ð

There are others, but I only have English, Esperanto, and Icelandic installed right now.

Esperanto has letters with little hats. Ĵ makes a nice little umbrella.

After opening the emoji picker, press in the emoticon in the bottom right. Should be right between GIF and backspace.

Kind of, but Lenny faces are more complex, less easy to just spit out than an emoticon. But just incorporating easy to access symbols into 2 or 3 character emoticons is pretty simple. :þ instead of :p
