built this tool that generates custom emoticons. It’s pretty fun to use, but I feel like it could be better. Since you guys are brutally honest (and creative), I figured this is the best place to ask: What features should I add? Anything annoying or clunky about it? Any cool ideas to make it stand out? Let me know your thoughts. Rip it apart if you have to—just want to make it as good as possible. Site name: EmoticonHub

Just me you and 748 of your closest friends, awesome. Where can I find the source?

that was because I had applied for Ezoic earlier, but I have now removed it and changed the DNS. Could you check if you're still seeing the cookie consent? Since I m in India, I dont see these cookie notices (they're country-specific), so I would really appreciate if you could let me know if they're gone now. Thanks for flagging this

Yes, I was on the website, where can I find the source code?

Brilliant. I do think it would be nice is longer emoticons shrunk once they hit a certain length (though that just may be my phone).

Huh, should this occur with these settings:

Some gaps in the options for mouth and nose.

Ruin it and make yourself miserable by implementing AI into this...

Kidding aside, this is hilarious and useful at the same time! Thank you for doing something creative that does suck ass immediately

Maybe add a "Lemmy mode" since Lenny uses symbols to mark italics, bold, etc, and causes a lot of emoticons to bug out

Like ¯_ (ツ) _/¯ when it should be ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Lemmy uses markdown to format posts. So yeah, a "markdown mode" would be awesome (just insert escape characters before each * and \ etc.)

Or maybe I'm wrong ٩(。•́‿•̀。)۶ (huh, Voyager comes with an emoticon picker)

Edit: it worked, I'm not wrong

Nice (・人・)

This is supa dope! What inspired this? Are there any other similar tools or is this first of its kind?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Not a huge fan of how some of the arms have () in them. The brackets should be place holders for the base, no?

〘/ᓀᨎᓀ〙/̸͆̎/͆̿̇ ͆̅͆͞͞͞͞​ι̿̿̿ ̿̎͆ ̀̈

vs

(/〘ᓀᨎᓀ〙)/̸͆̎/͆̿̇ ͆̅͆͞͞͞͞​ι̿̿̿ ̿̎͆ ̀̈

Love the tool though!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I like it.

May I suggest a “none” option for base/eyes/mouth too?

(・‸・)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Found a bug. Switching from the left pointed finger emotes to pointed both ways or the strong arm emote gives some unicode errors. This is on firefox

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

nice work!

i found a bug though

selecting the sixth option in the base menu puts html in the output:

(this is in Tor Browser, which is based on the "ESR" release of Firefox)
