Changing smileys on SMS

Ok I see I'm not the only one who's not a fan of the green android smileys. Using a 3rd party SMS app, will that give me standard (round and yellow) smileys?

I was going to ask if it was possible to switch the smileys out on Intercept, but I see now it's a general android thing.......which means I should probably be posting this somewhere else...

Edit: I also didn't care for the "bubble" style of the 2 sms apps I saw in the recommended thread. I like the intercept sms app ok, except for the smileys.
