Add Yahoo Smiley Emoticons Above Blogger/BlogSpot Comment Form

If you have already enabled the comment-form feature in your blog*spot blog, then it would be better to add a list of smilies too, which can be used by the readers while commenting.

The comment-form with smileys, will look like this:

Or you can see it in action [and leave a smiley-comment too], at the bottom of this post !

To add these smileys, follow these steps:

First log in to Blogger
Then go to Layout -> click on "Edit HTML" tab.

Now find this code :
post.embedCommentForm'>

Now right IN-BETWEEN those two lines, add all these lines:
#eeeddf; height:86'>
