How do you insert those neat little icons in your messages?

Please don't be upset that I posted this here.
I did do a search for the instructions but I can't find the answer.

I know how to do the smiles with my keyboard but what about the other icons I see ya'll use? Is there a special program?

How do you know what the less-obvious icons mean?

Underhill, if you right click on the icon, then click "Properties," a box will appear that contains the "name" of the icon. You can usually figure it out from that.

I saw the names and wonder what the "_png" means.

It's probably something obvious...

indytravel, I would tell you, but then I would have to kill you.

Seriously, I don't have a clue. A little knowledge is all I've got, which makes me dangerous.
