Little known fact: the Philosoraptor was created by a young engineer as a funny tee shirt template to sell at the local Saturday Market. His name is Sam, and he actually finds it hilarious that his design has gone on to become a globally recognized meme. (He's also created an affordable set of bluetooth headphones specifically for use in "silent disco" parties.) πŸ€“πŸ€ŒπŸΌ

I hope you are not being sarcastic. It is exciting to find people that don't know about this. And I am totally serious because this is such a cool discovery. While we knew for long time that birds are dinosaurs, seeing the latter with feathers makes today's chicken looking even more majestic.

The theropodes (raptors of all sizes) all had. Some even had some huge feathers on their heads, maybe with vibrant colors.

I'm not sure what is currently known about the others. I know some definitively didn't have feathers, and it was not only the theropodes that had them. The feathers had move diverse shapes than on the birds too.
