Macromedia Flash 8 can be used to create a simple emoticons, with 10 easy steps.

1. Open the program Macromedia Flash 8.



2. Create a new document sized 32 x 32 pixels or 48 x 48 pixels, in  this tutorial I use a size 48 x 48 pixels. by clicking Modify > Document, the contents of the size Dimensions 48 x 48 pixels or 32 x 32 pixels according to the size you want. as shown in the picture below. then click OK.



3. to assist in making the character an icon, display the grid by clicking the menu View> Grid and then select Show Grid, or by using keyboard shortcuts (ctrl + '). to set the width of pixels in the grid, click View> Grid> Edit Grid> then enter the 4 x 4 pixels as shown in the picture below.





4. Rename Layer 1 to "emo1" to avoid confusion later on, how to change the name is to right click on layer 1 or double-click on layer 1 and then replace it with emo1. continue with the next step.







5. The next step is to create a circle using the Oval Tool to use this tool can be done by pressing the button (O) or by clicking the icon Oval circle tool. then drop and drag the mouse while pressing (Shift) so that the circle is made to be perfect. as shown in the picture below.




6. Fill in the circle that was created with a color that coordinates with our desires, in this tutorial I use the color (# ffcc33). to color objects using Paint Bucket Tool (K) and enter into the circle and then select all objects that have been in color and change the graphic symbol by clicking Modify> Convert to symbol or by pressing (F8), then insert the name and select emo1 graphic then OK, then the symbol that has been made will be in the library box. so that objects that are at the stage we can remove, take it easy because the object is already stored securely on the box so that the library will not be lost.





7. The next step is to get eyeballs to emoticons, using the oval tool for a small circle. then transformed into a Graphic symbol as the previous way and name the "eyes" of the column name. the result will look like the picture below.




8. The next step is to make the mouth of emoticons that are smiling broadly. how to make a square using rectangle tool by pressing (R) and then make to the bottom of the box in a semicircle with the selection tool (V) drag and drop these lines was made to a line formed in such a way that it looked like the picture below, then the same as in previous step conversion of objects we have created into a symbol way as in the previous step and remove the objects on stage as well as in the previous step, this will not delete the object we have created because it was stored in the library.




9. all components are made so that the next step is to install all the components or objects that we created earlier. drag n drop the existing objects in the library box and then collated to form an emoticon with a tooth missing (I deliberately made that way hehehehe) as shown below




10 the last step is to export a gif format * way is to click File> Export> Export image and named according to the desired file and then save. and we upload emoticons that we make to the hosting and ready for use.

completed and may be useful
