A new emoticon - "Kepping Fingers Crossed" in MSN would be useful.

[Madhu]

How about having a new emoticon added to MSN called "Keeping Fingers
Crossed"? This would be very useful as its one of the frequently used phrases
in conversation. The emoticon could just show two crossed fingers.
An extension of this could be "Fingers and Toes Crossed", although it might
be difficult to depict this as an emoticon.

I'm not quite sure how you would clearly draw a symbol for
"fingers crossed" There is not one in

This is oriented to HTML but the numerical parts of the codes
are the same for the ALT+ method.

About the best available seems to be the "Victory Sign", given
by ALT+9996. If anyone wants to try it, you should go to MS
Word since it does not work for me in Outlook Express with the
Arial font.
