Hi all,

wonder if anyone can help me with this, it's starting to drive me even madder than i already am.

i've seen a few people with groups tags, with what can only be described as an ascii crown. I've looked around, but no ascii tables i've seen have such a crown (so i'm guessing it's not actually ascii)

any help would be most appreciated.
thanks in advance

I see a little box with a 26 over a 54. It looks like math to me.

/me scratches head with right hind foot. Why am I not seeing what you see?

"Unicode Plane" is just a generic term for any Plane of the Unicode character set. :)

"Unicode Plane (2600 - 26FF)" is usually referred to as "Miscellaneous Symbols":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_Symbols

The symbol is either the white or black chess king.

Ohhh cool! I learn something new (or nearly new) every day here! ;) I always wondered where those characters came from. Has anyone ever seen a bird?? Worth some Lindens to me....lol. ;)


Now that you've enlightened me about those characters, can someone PLEASE tell me what a LOLcat is?????? It's driving me NUTS! (Ok, not nuts enough to google it, but nuts enough to at least ask)

Isn't that a little plastic duckie?

As for lolcats, just google, but some might consider this definitive:

Interrobang‽

༺tibetan༻ is cool!

Skull and Crossbones: ☠

Postal Mark Face: 〠

Sesame Dot: ﹆﹅

Aegean Number 90,000: 𐄳

Tetragram for Bold Resolution: 𝌣

George Bernard Shaw had an alphabet created posthumously in his will, "Shavian", it's in there.

The duckie Desmond is referring to is a weather symbol: snowman.

Oh, Unicode Character CJK Radical Simplified Bird: ⻦.

funny enough, it looks like my firefox is referencing a different set here because I see a flipped negation (L-bar) with what looks like end quotation marks above it for that character. the one before it looks suspiciously like a steaming coffee cup...
