Little animated characters?

Sorry, I don't know what to call them. I have been gobbled and boo'ed and some christmas ones, but does anyone know what these things are called (the little images). I hope this is clear.

avatars?

I peeked to see what they are called. Good question. There were 52 who looked but didn't post so I guess they didn't know either. I just call them icons. They are cute little things. I'm looking to see what someone comes up with for Valentine's Day.
