1. Use Your Profile Pic As Emotion


This trick lets you use your facebook profile picture as an emotion symbol in chat, messages and status updates. You can apply this trick by using [[your username]]. Replace “your username” with yours e.g. [[jerrypalz]] and your profile picture will be rescaled to the size of an emotion sign, view the image below.

2. Change The Color Of Your Status Update Text To Blue


The default facebook status update text color is black, but you can customized yours to be blue by using this code/trick @@[1:[0:1 type your status update ]]. Replace the italics text with your status updated and all is done, your updated status will be blue (in color). It’s as easy as that.

3. Make Your Profile Picture Un-clickable


This is one of the easiest facebook trick, it doesn’t require any code, just settings. Facebook made your profile pic clickable by default so that people can view large version of your image, but if you want to prevent that (viewing larger version of your profile pic) you can make your profile pic un-clickable.
To make your facebook profile picture un-clickable, move to your Timeline – Photos – Albums – Profile pictures – Select your current profile picture – change the privacy from “Public” To “Only me”, your profile becomes un-clickable but you can still make it clickable by changing the privacy back to “Public”.

4. Post A Blank Status Update

Be default, facebook doesn’t allow users post blank statuses, you have to at least type a dot or text before your status can be updated. Here is a trick code to use in posting blank status updates. In your status box, type @[0:0 ] and then update. That’s it, your status update will be blank.

5. Turn Your Status Updated Upside Down
