Hi Tandoori Girl, the icon you posted is from MSN Instant Messenger.
Sorry, can't help you with any others; I'm icon challenged LOL.

Okay, guys! No problem - I found the icons in my "favorites." For anyone else wanting to use icons:

The "count"is flying above on the left of fodors, but you can't see his fangs,
he's flying through the O of .com on the main page.

bonnie, I've pasted the smileys page as one of my "favorites". When I want one then I pick that page, copy the icon, then go back to the fodors page and paste it. Works everytime.

Wanderluster, why would anyone want a icon of the MSN instant Messenger? And although that answers my question I still don't know what those figures are.

Sigh. Life can be so confusing.

I think it looks like either a mouse or a frog. But if you right click on the icon and then click "properties" you can see what it is "named." Often that gives you a clue. In this case, it is "png" which makes me think these are 2 penguins.

I'm betting that "png" is "ping", as in "pinging somebody with a message", or "I'll ping you with the answer" - especially applicable with wireless devices. Ping is the onomatopoeia for radio waves. Think submarine movies and the technician is using sonar to locate something underwater.

At first I thought - penguins? It looks more like a couple of mice. Or falsies. Or something. But as I look at it, I can sort of see one penguin in front of another one, if you can imagine green penguins. I'm a penguin freak, though (you should see my house and my office - more penguins than Antarctica) and a bit of a purist. There is no such thing as a green penguin. Blue ones, yes, but not green ones.

Now that I look at my error pattern, they're both on saturday mornings. Friday night is my night to howl - and we went through a bottle of CaboWabo & some CalinforniaCatnip during last night's poker game. I'm off to the kitchen to brew some KonaSunrise...
