Making hearts on computer?

How do you make a heart on the computer? I see people using hearts in their profiles/questions/answers and I wanted to know how to do it!! So??

& hearts ;

except no spaces

♥

&;

Okay lets see if that worked!!

Aww man!! let me try it again ;&

you go to the character map through your menu click programs and then click accessories then click system tools then you'll see character map and look through all the symbols until you find the heart and just copy it and paste it to where ever you want it. LOL Btw this us only if you have a PC.!!!

Darn its not working!

Is there a way to do it on Macs???

Like Babyangel22 said, it's ampersand ( & ) and then the word 'hearts' and then a semicolon ( ; ) without spaces in between. ♥

[& ]the word [hearts] and then[ ; ] with no spaces and you have to post it before you will see the heart cause thats what I did I posted it before somewhere then it appeared only AFTER I posted it but then I got rid of it myself and wrote something else there.

I know that this is not what you asked, but did you know there are other symbols?
