Few days after writing the post “Write Orkut scraps in Indian languages” using Greasemonkey script, Google has introduced that feature and now it is inbuilt in Orkut. Now, I will show you the way to embed Yahoo emoticons into your Orkut scraps. A little emoticon can express your feeling much better than words.
For this, we need, as usual, Firefox, GreaseMonkey extension for Firefox, and Yahoo Emoticons User Script.
Read my previous post about installing GreaseMonkey in Firefox. If you know how to install an extension in Firefox, just click here and install GreaseMonkey. Restart the Firefox and click here to get the user script, which GreaseMonkey instantly recognizes and comes up with a window asking for confirmation. Click “Install” and you are done. Now go to your scrapbook and you will see Yahoo and MSN emoticons appearing below the scrap box. Whenever you need an emoticon to be attached to the scrap, just click on the appropriate icon and a link will be inserted into your scrap that turns into an emoticon when it is posted. Enjoy!!!
Update: December 7, 2010
Script is not working anymore on the new version of Orkut. Sorry guys!
Update: May 30, 2008
Modified the script to work for orkut.co.in.
Update: July 17, 2009
PhotoBucket account was inactive and showing up “inactive msg blocks” in place of emoticons. Moved all emoticons to ImageShack for better service.
Update: September 6, 2009
Orkut changed the scrap book path. Modified the script to work with the new path.
hey nice one !!!
hey buddy m nt getting the im options…!

@adesh

Arrey yar yeh nahi chal raha hai community me jab comment post karta hoon tab yeh kaam nahi karta hai
Error loading user script:
404: Not Found
maine to ek hi script mangi thi yeh to 404 kah raha hai
@Sagar,
This is for scraps only.
dese smileys r small in sizehow to improve their size
Search for big size emoticons, download them and upload to photobucket or imageshack. Once these emoticons are uploaded and you got the direct link, edit the script and modify the image URLs.
If you are not able to do that, search for the emoticons you need and mail me the link, I will make the script for you 🙂
myn is firefox 3.5 beta
im facin problm in downloadin the emoticons
can u help me??
There is no need to download anything. They are served from free image hosting sites.

it is saying tht link inactive yahoo emotions’s account is not active since 90 days however i can use the smileys but its difficult as i cannot see wht i am using

Modified the script and moved all the emoticons to ImageShack. Check now and let me know if any problem arises.
Thanks for letting me know about nonworking of the script.
naveen i am unable to get the script how to use it
its just coming in words …not findin the way 2 instal it
hope ull reply soon..thanx in advance
You need to have Firefox and then install Greasemonkey extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748
Click on the Greasemonkey extension at the bottom of the Firefox, so that it turns yellow indicating that the extension is active. Then, click on this script: https://naveen.info/wp-content/uploads/naveen.info.user.js
It recognizes script and installs it. When you go to scrap book…you can see the Yahoo and MSN emoticons below the box to insert it in scraps.
yaar naveen …kyaa baat hai yaar ekdum zakaaas ..yahoo smily in orkut…u r great yaar
Thanks Santhosh for taking time to appreciate my work!
hmm..!! how to install fonts on orkut..??
No, you cannot. Instead you can install in your system, make an image, host it on any free image-hosting service, and add it in your scraps.
hey naveen although i installed the user script its not working for me….
Thanks abhi for taking this to my attention. Orkut changed the scrap book path, which was making it not to work. Modified the script right now. Download the latest.
Deleting the scripts from GreaseMonkey:: Right click on the GreaseMonkey icon in the status bar. Choose “Manage User Scripts.” Select the script in “Included pages” box and click on the “Remove” button on the right side.
heya same here its not working for my firefox too 🙁
Thanks for notifying me. Modified the script. Delete the old script from GreaseMonkey and download new.
done thanks naveen
hey
i think few of the smileys are not working !!!!!
It seems that ImageShack’s servers are down. Will move icons to Google Picasa or Flickr and update the script this Sunday.
hey its done man!!!!!
thannx 🙂 🙂 🙂
wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
awesm man………………………………

its nt working in firfox 3.5.2 why….i cnt able to install grease monkey
Sometimes installing an add-on fails. Just save the plugin to desktop and then open it with Firefox. That will solve your problem.
heyyy thanx a lot 4 dis!!!!!!!! 🙂
Thanx a lot dude..Its really Awesome….
Naveen, Nice work dude !
