How To Make My Trademark Symbol.

I am not TimmyTM. I am also not TimmyTim, though some ladies have called me that in the past. I am Timmy™. Here’s how to be an ostentatious goober like me.

Hold down alt and type 0153 on the numpad. Congratulations, you just created your first trademark symbol. Other notables: 164 = ñ, 130= é. (If you’re on a laptop, you’re screwed. Build a real computer, like Roxanne Covalent.)

How did I discover this? GOTO your friendly neighborhood charmap. (Type charmap into the run prompt. Yeah, it’s around the accessories folder, but I’m lazy.) For most symbols, when you select it, if you look on the bottom-right corner of the window you’ll see “keystroke: ..” and then an alt – number combination. Some do, some don’t. It’s all really quite simple, as I only use a few.

Any questions?

On a Mac it’s even easier. To get ™, Just hold down Option and 2. =)

RYN: Indeed. They are, uh, full of joy and happiness. And writer’s cramp. And rainbows! And sore necks, and sunshine, and…

*yawn* I learned this a year ago. Can I skip this class?

Character map. For everyone.

I always liked Æ too!

Hmmm, I always use the HTML version – & # 153;. I never throw it in because I’m too lazy to type it out, so I always just call you Timmy, but now that I know there’s an easy way around it, I’ll use it more. 🙂

Nope! My middle name involves such a character. Alt+0224 = à! Yay!

Character map is my secret addiction. Not so secret anymore…

Character maps… communication for the extremely intellectual… … or I like to think so! LMAO! Did someone really ask you this?

I do hope no other girls start calling you Tim. That’s my thing, man. I’ll fight a bitch for it.

I can say it a dozen more times, if you’d like.

You are not the only one with that cute little ™. One of my favorites on OD is Lizuurd™. I’ll admit, it is adorable. Timmy™ just goes together so nicely.

™ I did that on my mac though, hehe.

i was going to ask how to do it on a mac but looks like one of your noters answered my question! Timmy™ hehe

Weird! I call my friend Tim in my class “TimTim” because he has a Tin Tin shirt! XD Even though you dislike that and go by ™. =P
