Lately lots of people have asked me how to make "special signs" (eg.☺,♣,←....), so after a little bit of research and lots of time to waste I decided to post this chart, enjoy. Also feel free to share this information with others, and I would be happy and appreciate it if you told them about my blog.



Before trying these codes, keep in mind that they only work if the Numpad is used (otherwise please contact me)
