New Emojis for TVTropes!!! :D [YourChoiceHere]

Go To

In one of my upcoming updates i'm adding the emoji bar/support, preview & img upload buttons to the TLP, Queries, Discussion pages and Reviews but i realized tropes is using very old Font Awesome icons.

I am going to add updated emoji choices everyone can use in the main forums as well as all the other areas i've added the bar to but i wanted to know if any tropers would be willing to custom create some emojis for everyone? We could use newer font awesome icons but custom ones would be best if we get some volunteers.

Volunteer Artists making icons:

NOTE: current emoji choices are staying since it needs to stay for all the old comments anyways and if people still want to use the current ones they can.

    FA Icon Suggestions: 

    Twiddler’s List of FA icons 

Rocket launch, for launching pages.

Can icons be combined? rocket + ban symbol, for "don't launch"/"not launch-worthy"?

Also the ban symbol on its own.

Bomb and some kinda hat? (can't find one that matches the TLP hat symbol. maybe the cowboy side one?)

Though hats can also be fun on their own. wizard, witch, cowboy

raised fist. also rotated versions for fist bumps? (hm... can't find a left-facing version) handshake, hand point up, hand point down, hand holding heart, hands clapping, hand wave, hand, hand spock, hand horns, hand peace, hand fingers crossed

tools? hammer, hammer knock, screwdriver+wrench, wrench, shovel, screwdriver... ooh, scissors! That'd definitely get some use. hand scissors? magnifying glass ...kitchen knife? broom

sparkles, sparkle, fire, star, stars. Hm, some magicky icons could represent wiki magic. wand sparkles, wand magic sparkles, hand sparkles, book sparkles, lasso sparkles, hand holding magic, aah there's so many. rainbow? it only allows for up to two colors at once, though

media icons: book, books, tv, tv retro, tv music, camera movie, film, video, camcorder, compact disc, music, guitars, violin, piano, saxophone, saxophone fire, oh my god there's so many musical instrument icons. I'm gonna have to cut myself off there or we'll be here all day. headphones, record vinyl, camera retro, microphone, gramophone, cassette tape, album collection, turntable, microphone stand, though bubble, masks theater, user shakespeare, gamepad, game console handheld, joystick, alien 8bit, game board, dice, headset, d8, d20, there's a bunch of different dice ones, also chess. Lots of stuff comes up in a search for 'game'. puzzle piece, puzzle, spade, club, heart, diamond (could get those in different colors too, 'specially the heart). palette, paintbrush, paintbrush pencil, newspaper, mp3 player

lightbulb gear, trophy, trophy star, clipboard, clipboard check, clipboard list check, clipboard list, pen, pen nib, pen fancy, pencil, pen clip... there are a lot of pens. feather, typewriter, keyboard, eraser, stamp, brain circuit, brain, head side brain

We don't have an angry emoji so maybe this?

Might be a problem because it's pro, but a party popper or something would be fun! Always a good thing to have if something celebration-worthy happens.

I wanted that too! We use [awesome] for awesome moments but a party emoji would be nice too and probably more intuitive.

We have a font awesome account so we should be able to add literally anything they have. Just post the links to whatever ones you want and I’ll make a big list.

This diagonal mouth works for an equivalent to :/, to indicate skepticism or uncertainity.

Oh, if the pro ones are on the table, maybe one of the confused ones? Very similar to the diagonal above, though. [lol]

A check emoji would be good. Basically could be used as another way of saying "Done" or "Completed".

Perhaps the information symbol to indicate important information?

So it seems like everyone is suggesting the “solid” style for icons. Should we only add one type?

If we have Heart, can we have it in Bright Red? Solid makes sense for most simple symbols?

I could add several primary colors for each icon or something like that? If other colors of the other icons would also be wanted.

Also, it’s okay to suggest random fun ideas like worms or whatever. smile

Maybe an x-mark to match with the checkmark too?

Personally, I prefer the line over solid, especially for faces, but I think that's just the artstyle. Consistency seems more important in the end.

I just linked one without thinking about the style. [lol]

As an in-between for checkmark and x-mark, we could probably use this pen to square glyph to indicate work currently in progress.

How about a handshake, as another form of showing agreement. And I saw the party popper suggestion earlier, here's a link.

Also, maybe lock and unlock emojis?
