My suggestion would be to find a set of PNG (or other) images that you
like, put them all into some subfolder and then define a list in the
spirit of:
\def\smiley{\externalfigure[img/smilies/smiley.png][height=\lineheight]}
Of course you can also use fonts (even marvosym), but they will only
show ugly black-and-white strokes which is probably not what you want.
Well, you can of course colour them, but it will still be plain
single-colour vector image. If you want your documents to look nice,
you should fetch nice images from somewhere.
(If you want auto-replacement to work, you need a few more hacks, but
I would personally not like smilies to be inserted automatically.)
