    :astonished: doesn't look very happy and smiley-ish to me, however it does remind me of the best emoticon EVER:

    Sorry, had to share that. This might be the one you're looking for: :surprised
    Code:
    :surprised

    :astonished: is a default smilie that comes with vBulletin software (as are smilies such as :slight_smile: :frowning2: :confused2: :rolleyes: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: :wink: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:). The code used to make that smilie appear is what vBulletin automatically sets it up as, and I believe it's meant to just be an embarrassed face, rather than one that is considered to be smiling (even though it is doing that too).

    If you type o: it works just as well, and no weirdly satisfied-looking purple smiley appears. That's what I typically do. :slight_smile:

    You could also put in a space, or a dash for a nose, or use a zero or a capital-O, like so:
    : o
    :-o
    :0
    :O

    LOL.

    well, i guess unlike most forum and chatroom, this is the one forum that : o without the space don't yield a smiley face equivalent...
    this thread is done now i guess lol

    Haha, my boyfriend texts me with the : o face to act surprised, and my phone turns it into an angry face.

    Here are some more surprised faces (remove the *s):

    :eek: :*eek:

    :icon_eek: :*icon_eek:

    If I do the : o face on my phone, it turns it into a 'cool' face (the one with sunglasses, typically represented by B) )
