While the emoji's do look and feel outdated, I wouldn't consider this to be a massive priority. It would however be an appreciated change.

+1 for support. I still do believe that the Scratch team should prioritize improving their API before making visual changes. Functionality should be put first.
One of the most well put posts I've ever seen (not that I'm an expert in making them)

Am I the only one here who likes the current emoticons? No support from me personally.

Agreed, I actually think they look good and express a good amount of emotion

I always thought that “emojis” only referred to the specific Unicode icons. According to Wikipedia, “emoticons” only means the text representations. On the page for “emoji” it says that it can either refer to the specific Unicode icons or anything close to them. So, I don't know. I'll still call them “emoticons” because I'm pretty sure that the word “emoji” was created to describe the mobile phone things, and “emoticons” is a combination of “emote” and “icon”, neither of which imply “text-based” to me. Basically, I don't know

minimods that use “Thanks, and have a nice day! ” whenever they minimod up the joint

support, the emojis look really weird and it would be much better if they were in vector

Yeah, emojis are kinda weird on the Forums. When I want to type : P, (there is a space in between the letters, btw), it always comes out as . But when I type xD, it doesn't come out as , because you need to type : lol :

Yeah, they do have that classic look to them. Vector emojis would look bland and generic.

I like how the current ones feel very human and warm, but the ones on twitter and stuff look almost weird to me

They were made by corporations to appeal to the masses, of course it feels robotic and cold like their creators.

I think it might be good to update the emojis. we don't have to completely redesign them, but they do look outdated.

Oh, nice! You balanced a more modern ish look, without the cheesy dumb feel of twitter emojis and the like.

I agree. Maybe give them a more vector-ish feel, but keep the original designs.
