Laughter is the best medicine – always carry a smile in your pocket!A smiley is one of the most recognizable symbols around. It is a yellow circle that has the appearance of a human face on it, with eyes and a mouth in black. The very first yellow Smiley Face was created by Harvey Ball in 1963. He was hired by an insurance company to design a face to be used on buttons and cards in order to raise employee morale. It is noted that it took him 10 minutes to create the design, earning a $45 fee. The happy face gained huge popularity in the following years, becoming an international icon by the 1970's and securing a place in pop culture for the coming decades. The growth of the Internet and the development of modern computer image formats allowed the Smiley to move online, cementing a place in Internet culture. Hundreds of thousands of graphical images of this face have been created for Internet use, many of them animated. Even though the Smiley came to life some two decades before the emoticon, there is no evidence that the creation of the first text emoticons were influenced by it. While there have been some legal issues surrounding the “smiling faceâ€Â, it's worth noting that other than his $45 fee, Harvey did not make a direct profit from his creation. On the morning of September 19, 1982, the use of the first smiley face and frowning face emoticons was proposed by research professor Scott E. Fahlman, from the department of computer science at the Carnegie Mellon University in the USA. In 2002, this claim was verified after the original back-up tapes containing the postings were retrieved by Jeff Baird. In his message, Professor Fahlman originally suggested the use of this emoticon :-) after funny and humorous posts on the message board and the use of this emoticon :-( for every thing else that was not meant to be funny and all serious remarks. The frowning face emoticons used today are meant as an indication of anger and sadness instead.Get Smiley Face Live Wallpaper and always have a good laugh when you take a look at your screen!This live wallpaper has been tested on latest devices such as Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, Note II, HTC One X, Google Nexus 4, Sony Xperia Z.
