Thank you.
I do have a lot or most of those but I don't think I have seen the hearts and diamonds. I didn't think it was in with the smiley's. I saw a red one but it was animated.

Molly, if you use Windows, hold the windows key and press 'r', type 'charmap' and find any character depending on the font selected.

Oh, of course, and my plug to my latest, and useful tutorial, one of those Internet "know-hows" that help students that feel that streamed video tutorials are too fast or slow for their normal learning pace.

I show the usage of two very simple tools to achieve it:
VLC and Flash Video Downloader:

I would love to have those keyboard icons but unfortunately you need to be able to turn numlock on, and my macbook keyboard does not have a numlock key. Apparently, Apple didn't think it was needed anymore, so I have no way to type those cool icons.

It is 10 years since I have used a Mac. Hehehe.
