I've been scouring the interwebz. I've found other websites that use the smilie and have contacted the administrators for where they got it from. I'm going to hunt the creator down.

I think this conclusively shows what the form of the smilie was from. Therefore it is evident in my opinion that the smilie is looking down and to the left. Until I get contact from the administrators from the other internet forums, this is the best I can do.

It's facing down and to the left like most people have said, it was a remake of a previous facepalm emoticon.

 the part closest to the observer would seem smaller (i.e. "scrunched up") compared to the further side of smiley face.
Fuck that, look at the top of Picard's head in the facepalm pic.

He's clearly facing left, and yet the left side of his head slopes down much more sharply than the right, completely consistent with the 2 pixels on the left and three on the right along the top of the graemlin's head. It's a trick of Patrick Stewart's long chromedome.

Anatomically speaking, it's hard if the left hand covers the face for the neck to extend in such a way that the left palm covers the right hemisphere of the face. Therefore the neck is tilted down and to the left as well, while the palm extends over the top half of the face to inicate it's down and to the left.

 YES!

It's entirely possible to facepalm using your left hand when facing either left or right. Try it and see for yourself. The act of facepalming doesn't prevent your neck from being capable of rotating.

Indeed, but from a prone position, is it not uncomfortable for someone to typically cover the other side of their face with their palm when a left palm over left side of the face would suffice with less strain? Subconscious face palming would dictate the left palm would cover the left side of the face.

indeed.
and, as you can see. the facepalm smiley's hand is directly in the center.

Who only facepalms on one side of their face? You'd end up looking like you're covering your eye for an eyesight test!
When I facepalm, the blade of my hand is roughly parallel to the ground, and my hand spans from cheekbone to cheekbone, pretty much right in the middle of my face (along the horizontal axis). And when I facepalm, it doesn't take any extra strain to face in either direction, regardless of which hand I'm facepalming with.

Lies, after smacking your forehead you slide your hand down your face thus creating a facepalm.

In such a case, does your neck not crane downward to conform to the palm of your hand? And in such an anatomical position does it not also have the supinated palm in a position that has the chin pointing down and to the left, in a position that indicates that an anatomically correct human being coincides with evidence indicating that the smilie is looking down to the left?
Gentlemen, we have found the smoking gun. 

This thread is fucking lulz.
