Step 1. Log in to your Blogger account and go to Template - Edit HTML

Step 2. Press the CTRL + F keys to open the search box

Step 3. Search (CTRL + F) for this tag:

</body>

Step 4. Copy and paste just above it, this code:

a) For previous commenting system with comments that have no reply function:

<!--kolobok-smileys-->
<script src='http://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/[helplogger.blogspot.com]smileys.js' type='text/javascript'/>
<!--kolobok-smileys-->

b) For threaded commenting system with comments that have the reply function:

<script src='https://helplogger.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/kolobok threaded.js' type='text/javascript'/>

Note: ignore steps 5-8 if you are using threaded comments!

Step 5. Now find this code snippet:

<b:loop values='data:post.comments' var='comment'>

Step 6. Paste the following code just above it:

<div id='smileys'>

Step 7. Find the following code (look carefully, it should be somewhere below the code from step 5)

</b:loop>

Step 8. Paste the following tag just after it:

</div>

Step 9. Now find this code:
a) For previous commenting system:

<data:blogTeamBlogMessage/>

Note: if you'll find it like 4 times, stop to the 2nd one!

b) For threaded commenting system:

<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'>

Step 10. And add this code just after it:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'><script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[
function moreSmilies() {
    document.getElementById('smiley-more').style.display = 'inline';
    document.getElementById('smiley-toggle').innerHTML = '<a href="javascript:lessSmilies()"><div style="font-size:small; font-weight:bold;color:#000000;">Hide Emoticons</div></a>';
}
function lessSmilies() {
    document.getElementById('smiley-more').style.display = 'none';
    document.getElementById('smiley-toggle').innerHTML = '<a href="javascript:moreSmilies()"><div style="font-size:small; font-weight:bold;">Show Emoticons</div></a>';
}
//]]>
</script>
<div class='emoticons'>
<span id='smiley-more' style='display: none;'>

.emoticons {-moz-background-clip: -moz-initial;-moz-background-origin: -moz-initial;-moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;text-align: left;width:400px;}
.emoticons a, .emoticons a:hover {margin-left: 20px;text-decoration:none;}
