Okay so, Emojis are these: 😀😁😂😘, and Smileys are these: :) :D :P, right?

So, i dont like emojis that much, they can take a long time to find if you dont know where they are, and generally it just looks too cheesy to me.

Smileys on the other hand, Im kind of more familiar with so i prefer them a lot more than emojis.

BUT

My random thought was that while using a smiley face at the end of a sentence, is it "Blah Blah Blah. :)" or " Blah Blah Blah :)." Or "Blah Blah Blah :)"? What is the correct way of using Smileys???
