2) Do the Facebook symbols yourself!

This works for some people and not for others, but each of these characters can be typed on your keyboard using the ‘alt’ button.

First, if you’re on a laptop make sure you ‘Num Lock’ is on! The ‘Num Lock’ button is on the top right of your keyboard.

Next, hold down ‘alt’ (the one in the bottom left of your keyboard) and press type the following:

Hold ‘alt’ then type 1 – ☺

Hold ‘alt’ then type 2 – ☻

Hold ‘alt’ then type 3 – ♥

Hold ‘alt’ then type 4 – ♦

Hold ‘alt’ then type 5 – ♣

Hold ‘alt’ then type 6 – ♠

Hold ‘alt’ then type 7 – •

Hold ‘alt’ then type 8 – ◘

Hold ‘alt’ then type 9 – ○

Hold ‘alt’ then type 10 – ◙

Hold ‘alt’ then type 11 – ♂

Hold ‘alt’ then type 12 – ♀

Hold ‘alt’ then type 13 – ♪

Hold ‘alt’ then type 14 – ♫

Hold ‘alt’ then type 15 – ☼

Hold ‘alt’ then type 16 – ►

Hold ‘alt’ then type 17 – ◄

Hold ‘alt’ then type 18 – ↕

Hold ‘alt’ then type 19 – ‼ (it’s one character!)

Hold ‘alt’ then type 20 – ¶

  1. ….However, it doesn’t work for all letters w/numbers. When holding alt & Fn and typing J,1 and J,4 to get the double music sign it automatically takes me to another page, a friends page I think I previously looked at, it did show me the sign briefly before redirecting…mmmmmmmm, weird. It does allow me to post some signs, but others are redirect me immediately??? BTW, this is all on Facebook.


  2. Correction, holding the Alt, Fn and then click on J,1 and U,4 (to get the 14 number and to get the double music symbol)it shows it for a sec and then redirects my page….ahhhhhhh


  3. ‘alt’ and a number doesn’t work on my computer……


  4. It Dont Work On Mine! How Do You Do It Anmd I Can Not Fine The [fn] Key!!


  5. On my laptop I hold down the Alt key and the Fn key which is located on the bottom left corner(on my laptop). Still holding down the Alt & Fn key I then choose the letter J, which also has a small number in blue on it which is 1 (still holding down the Alt & Fn key) then choose the letter K, which has the number 2 on it, to equal 12 let go and you should, or I get, this symbol: ♀
    Other examples:
    Alt, Fn, J-1, L-3 =’s ♪
    Alt, Fn, J-1, U-4 =’s ♫
    And so on….I am using a laptop Gateway PC with Windows Visa


  6. Thanks laurabo someone with a helpful response!


  7. I have a Toshiba laptop so no number lock. Tried the FN + Alt + J and got smiley face. Then FN+Alt+K and my screen turned upside down. What a panci attack. Be careful!!! Managed to turn it the right way by fn+alt+up arrow. phew. I’ll stick to copy and pasting!!


    • Hahahhhaa can’t believe you did this!!! Amazing!

  9. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ – how bout this? . how do we do this?


  10. well after reading and summarizing all the posts, i started experimenting on my toshiba satellite laptop with windows vista basic, i found out that typing pairs of letter/number gives different symbols, eg. Fn+ALT+J1+K2 =♀, so therefore, u can make as many pairs as u like and receive a diffrent symbol, although some pairs gave me numbers eg. Fn+ALT+O6+L3= 4……messd around and cant remember how i got this image ░….but i have something more special for laptop users thatd dont have number lock but just Fn and ALT…post will be continued……


  11. ok so here is something juicy, i just like 5 minutes ago started to experiment after being upset that my lil ole lappy doesnt have number lock and cant do fancy things like other desktops can, so heres a lil something for my lappy users, and the key is to experiment so u can find things that even i didnt find……..post continued


  12. ok so first things first, this is gonna be lenghty, ok here goes
    while keeping ur fingers on Fn+ALT press J1 once u get ☺, press twice u get ♂ three times u get o, four times u get W, 5 times u get ╬, 6 times u get •, 7 times u get G, 8 times u get ╟ and 9 and 10 times seem to give me the same ╟ symbol which, since i am slightly smart, i am guessing that each key has only 8 possible characters…post continues


  13. ok now on to bigger fish, while fingers on Fn+ALT press J1 THEN press L3 and u get ♪ , but it gets juicier, turn the formula around, still while fingers on Fn+ALT, press L3 *THEN* press J1 and u get ▼(but be awar that different symbols might show up because thats what happened to me during my experiment. JUST KEEP EXPERIMENTING…BE UR OWN EMOTICON EINSTEIN LMAO


  14. so lemme see if i can sum up what i have done so far for laptop users with only Fn+ALT. while fingers on Fn+ALT press: J1 1-8 times and u will get the following ☺♂oWg•G╟
    K2 1-7 times and u will get the following ☻▬▐«╬♫Ä
    L3 1-8 times and u will get the following ♥!M♣5§╒U
    U4 1-7 times u get ♦,╝\£∟
    I5 1-8 times u get ♣7+│♥#cπ
    O6 1-7 times u get ♠BÜ◙j*¬
    while fingers on Fn+ALT press these numbers on the number key pad:
    for the key &/7 you get •M○a╤1±q 1-8 times.
    for the key */8 you get ◘Xx╕8 1-5 times.
    for the key (/9 you get ○cτ☼ƒ?⌂ 1-7 times


  15. combinations are as follows: these are all the symbols so far that Fn+ALT+J1+K2 has given me pressed simultaneoulsy and erratically….i tried to delete most of the repeat symbols
    ♀┼i┘@Ö┘σ▐o╘jxÉI▄Çαà○╘|╝∞I§ykj┴ò►ⁿ|█J♂⌡ëÖ|╘1▄I☻1k☺ki▌Ö◄Ibpx\_ƒ&iIÖ▄╒╘ █ ┘


  16. i am exhausted but try all combinations and keep experimenting. Maybe i will come back tomorrow and do the rest, toodles‼â╬↨ΦkT☻


  17. Krysta, you’re a legend. Thank you xxxxxxxx


  18. Oh Carly, thank you..hope u have fun finding more symbols

  20. why dont these work on facebook???????


  21. i couldn’t use these for the mac. IT’s too much trouble to cut and paste having to go back and forth from this page. any other ideas? i have a mac lap top so no number pad with a num lock.

  23. If anyone is still having difficulty with this and owns a laptop, try this.

    In order to turn on some laptops you must press the [fn] button — found next to the CONTROL ([ctrl]) button — and the scroll/ [num lk] button, which how you turn on the number lock.

    Then instead of using the top row of number keys, you must use the keys that are letter keys but have numbers in the top right corner (i.e. m,j,k,l,u,i,o…) 7,8, and 9 are still the same. Use these keys while pressing alt. It should be all there on your laptop, just play around with it a little and you should get it.

    Hope that helps.
