Greetings Charles,

Click the Tools menu (or Alt-T if the menu is hidden), then choose the Backgrounds,
Emoticons, etc. and choose Create to make whatever you like.

Hi Charles,

That's completely up to you, you can use an image for either -- it will just be resized as
necessary. Of course, if its small, it obviously would be better used as an emoticon as
opposed to a background.
