Chat stickers do NOT expire. You can use them as long and as many times as you want. They're much larger in size when used in the chat and are animated compared to static smaller emoticons.

In Steam comments you will only see emoticons, in Steam messenger between friends you will see the emoticons as well the chat stickers.

To add on to the above.

A sticker cannot be attached to a sentence. An emoticon can be used in any part of a sentence or standalone. That's why stickers are huge in size.

A sticker is for reaction, an emoticon is to indicate emotions attached to the sentence. Emoticon too can be a reaction with lesser emphasis (lack of animation & smaller size).

How to use them - they have the same function. To express emotions in the absence of body language.

To Steam, it's just a way to monetise more cute stuff and collectibles while meeting new interweb trends.

chat sticker and emoticon?



Emote ICON is an ICON that like probably 13 Year olds care about,
& they are for posting what Mood your in, as you chat with your Friends...

They come in various types of Small images...

Stickers on the other hand, are probably what 7 Year olds care about,
Large Images of Child Friendly stuff, that Animate... They seem to be
of Random Images, that do strange & goofy things...

If any of these Interest you, by all means, go for them...

You can find both under a Category Box, when you go into a Chat with someone,
It should be close to your Send Button for the Chat...

The Box looks like a Smiley Face...


Good Luck...
