And where is the missing link?

You need evidence if you're going to suggest that the latter is a descendant of the former. ;)

Agreed... We must document a specific evolutionary course.... Otherwise the cyber-creationists will merely claim that http://michiel.160blog.nl/smileys/smiley.gif was created originally by God as a unique creation, and all the rest were merely lesser animals which were killed out in the world wide flood of information when ARPANET went global.

See, the cool people don't use the smilies that go graphic, see.

And here's why: one day, Jolt will just decide that : ) means :upyours: and everything else is the :eek: ... and no-one will ever be able to fix it, and then smilie people like you will have a LOT of editing to do.

So don't do it if you want to be cool like me. : ]
