I use the Smileys given on GN in my posts but how do I put on an Emoji? I tried my usual way when writing email etc. but it won't work in these comment boxes. Image shows how I normally do it.
Thanks

Hi WOODMOUSE49
The emojis that you can use on GN are below when you write a post along with what you need to write to include them. The emojis that you use in emails are different to the ones on GN but hopefully there are enough of ours for your messages 
Ah I've just been corrected - every day is a school day! On a phone or a tablet you can add emojis like you would in an email, text message etc but we're not sure of an easy way to do this on a laptop.
If anyone has any suggestions please do share
Does anyone know why some come out as little empty squares (snapshot)?
Any way of knowing which emojis do this?
I think GN's own emojis are more suited to Gransnet. Why? Do you think we old dears have to use emojis designed specifically for us? Not use the wide range of emojis everyone else uses? 
Why would I think we "old dears" (!!! bloomin' cheek) need emojis specially designed for us?
It's a matter of aesetics.
Oh OK, it's cos they're smaller. Yeah, I get that. Wish we had more though. There's rarely one on the little GN list that expresses just what I want. Except this one , which I wish the other lot had (FB, twitter et al).
No one uses it though. 
No one knows what it's for!
Don't believe it was specially designed. Reckon Cari just had it in her drawer and thought, "that'll do". (ie, shut her up).
Can't believe it's still there actually.
