The lovely Rosesarered has a lucky Shamrock (or 4 leaf clover) emo.
Can we please have one
It would be very useful.
better sometimes than a bunch of flowers
Do you think your techie people might be able to sort out

The crowns and hats only work on the faces.

rosesarered Sun 10-Jan-16 16:03:44

crown

Ana Sun 10-Jan-16 16:07:36

I meant they won't work with things like the shamrock or dragon.

The crown seems to be a stand alone one, but the other tcrsmile only works on smileys!

It only works on the ones that tech has made with crowns and santa hats and so on and saved in a file somewhere on the site. Same with all the saints day ones and Halloween and so on. If there was a system, with a standard bit to add to give a hat or crown to a standard emoticon, and all the possible combinations were stored somewhere, we could just type in the one we wanted and it would be found and shown.

Oi! Tech! You must have recovered from the holidays by now!

We can already give a hat or crown to a standard emoticon, Elegran tcrconfused

Elegran Sun 10-Jan-16 16:28:43

But we can't do EVERYTHING to ALL the emoticons, or access the appropriate code for all the emoticons that are rolled out through the year.

I might copy as many as I can find into a file myself and keep it on my laptop. (You can tell the weather is keeping me indoors at the moment)

Greyduster Sun 10-Jan-16 16:47:36

Can't we have some moving ones? On another forum i'm a member of we have a emo with his hand over his eyes, shaking his head (exasperation), and a whistling one with his eyes raised ("it wasn't me guv" mischievous comment - not that i'm insinuating that anyone on GN makes mischievous comments). There are some others but they're a bit 'blokey'!shock
