This font family contains special symbols for programs that support opentype features. 

Type ** for the boy monkey
Type ## for the girl monkey
Type << for the lips
Type <3 for the heart
Type <33 for the wide heart
Type =) for the smiley
Type i<3u for the I WUV YA!

Why aren't the special symbols working for me?

You may be using a program that does not support opentype features, such as ms paint, open office, libre office, gimp, etc.

Examples of programs that do support opentype features are: photoshop, illustrator, or microsoft word. If you are using one of these programs, make sure you have ligatures turned on.
Paint.net is the only free program that I know of that shows the symbols.

An alternative is to use my ding sets, as they contain all my special characters and should work in any program.

MF Dings & MF Dings 2 contains the special symbols for this font.
