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
Nice (・人・)

This is supa dope! What inspired this? Are there any other similar tools or is this first of its kind?
I like it.
May I suggest a “none” option for base/eyes/mouth too?
(・‸・)
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!
(✿◠‿◠)っ¤=[]:::::>
Ok that one wins
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)
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
Please add a link.

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS I LOVE IT
ᕕ(✧∀✧)ᕗ•. ｡˚˚ · • . ° .
I just wish it integrated with my Android keyboard
that is the #1 thing I miss about Gboard (I now use HeliBoard with the disembodied Google gesture typing library loaded into it)
Ah yes I'm gesture typing as we speak
haha wiggly finger go brrrrrrrr
That was a lot of cookies to deny just for an emoticon. But fun tool!
Oof, you're right about those cookies, definitely something I need to streamline. Thanks for pushing through and giving it a shot anyway!
Thanks for the heads up.
OP - my feedback is fix this.
Same here. Was going to give it a whirl. Not if there are a hundred trackers having fun in my browser.
Gotta make money somehow. Are you gonna pay?
found a bug ;)
Edit: where is the link?
Another one: some arms will make the base chars disappear when rendered (guessing it’s a diacritic thing)
thanks for catching that bug, I will get on fixing it ASAP
Is there a way to export them with Markdown to prevent missing arms?
Ooh yeah, good feature request
Agree with less cookies and trackers if possible. Google doesn't need to see my emoticons.
Also would prefer a JS free-version if possible, but I can see how that might not work.
Or maybe you're also collecting the IPs of everyone here by cross referencing usernames with the emoticons used in comments and copied from your site. Statistically, this would actually be pretty easy to use to doxx people's IPs/locations that way.
A JS-free version would have to have the work offloaded to a server via an API request. I'm not sure if that'd be any better. At least with JS, you can theoretically read the code running on your machine
You have something like 2000 friends all wanting to contact me for legitimate interest. Is it okay, if I tell them no?

Hah, this is great ┌∩┐⸦(͠⊙ヘ͠⊙)⸧┌∩┐
Enjoy the hotdogs
For me the drop-down for Mouth/Nose has a lot of empty spaces, that show up when you select them.
As a emoji noob it could be nice with some text naming the specific selection.
I don't think I've ever fully realised the depth of feeling I have for emoticons, let alone that there were others out there!

I tried to recreate the emoticon you used, but this was the closest I could get with the available options.

Nice idea.

Since EmoticonHub is pretty new, I'd love to hear any suggestions on how to get the word out. Any marketing tips would be super helpful

There are few eyes with eyebrows, I can not create Lenny Face, literally unplayable! /s
Could be worth it to separate the eyebrows, because they clearly are available with some eyes, e.g. these are 2 combined characters סּ͡͡ and these also ･ิ
I also noticed a curious lack of flipped tables

Yo that looks nice!

And it izz! I found couple of broken characters though. Could be text encoding or maybe my browser's support. They show up as whitespace in the dropdown. In the screenshot I set the mouth to one of those
