HOW TO USE THE SAVE FEATURE:

To add an emoticon to your list of saved emoticons, click the 'Save Emoticon' button (NOTE: This does not actually store them), then to store all of your saved emoticons for future use, click the 'Store Emoticons' button. PLEASE READ You can not save emoticons with spaces in them, e.g. you can't save this: ( o_o), but you can save this: (o_o)

Whenever you use Unicode Keyboard, make sure you click the 'Load Emoticons' button before saving anymore custom emoticons, otherwise it will overwrite your previously saved emoticons. It's a bit of a pain, I know, but I haven't found another way yet.

Ever seen people type those more detailed smiley faces and the table-flip meme with those strange characters and wanted to be able to easily make your own? This extension provides a simple, easy-to-use way of creating your own Unicode emoticons which you can then simply copy-and-paste into your post, allowing for more detailed expressions in your text!

What's New:

  • You can now save custom emoticons and then load them as custom buttons the next time you use the plugin!
  • Fixed the question mark buttons (removed them as they were also playing up for me as well)

Fun to play with it.

This is pretty good if you want to quickly make emoticons without searching it up on google. However, it could use a few more symbols. Maybe add ▿ ? Save and Load don't work though... But yeah, I'd recommend it. (◕‿◕✿)
