Emoticons can generally be divided into three groups: Western or Horizontal (mainly from America and Europe), Eastern or Vertical (mainly from east Asia), and 2channel style (originally used on 2channel and other Japanese message boards). The most common explanation for these differences is how the different cultures value different parts of the face, i.e. eyes often play a bigger part in figuring out mood in the East while the West puts the eyes as equal to the rest of the face.
Western style emoticons are mostly written from left to right as though the head is rotated counter-clockwise 90 degrees. One will most commonly see the eyes on the left, followed by the nose (often not included) and then the mouth. Typically, a colon is used for the eyes of a face, unless winking which uses a semicolon. However, an equal sign, a number 8, and a capital letter B are also used interchangeably to refer to normal eyes, widened eyes or those with glasses. One can also add a "}" after the mouth symbol-"(", ")", etc.—to indicate a beard.
Eastern emoticons generally are not rotated, and may include non-Latin characters to allow for additional complexity.
The Japanese language is usually encoded using double-byte character codes, which can be reproduced as ASCII art.
