A workshop for the memes of production.
Submit new emoji here.
A good submission is:
- Visually clear at a small size (120 pixel width) [This does not mean upload the small image, this means upload the source image or full size cutout but test prior.]
- Have a transparent background to the greatest degree possible. This online tool can remove many backgrounds.
- Display a clear emotion or purpose
- If including text, should be properly sized to be readable
- "Evergreen" and not something that will be irrelevant after the next news cycle
- Formatted in PNG, GIF, or SVG to make our file optimization cycles easier. If svg initially, send svg in a seperately hosted link to WhyEssEff. Same with gif, as we render them as mp4 IIRC.
- Have proposed title as the title of the post, nothing more, nothing less.
- Post body should include a suggested category and keywords.
- Max height of 3 times the width.
Rules:
- No reactionary or reactionary-adjacent expressions. The purpose of an image is what it expresses. Some clear examples for this rule:
- Allowed: Broken fasces, burning stars-and-bars, rotated Mussolini
- Disallowed: Body-shaming, Pepes, gay-shaming the enemy (e.g. those pictures of Putin and Trump that libs love to post), certain hateful wojaks (even if recontextualized)
- If you think you have touched on a grey area, see rule 7 for how to litigate this.
- ~~Nothing Vaush-related is allowed~~
- To be honest, I broke this rule, so it's pretty much moot. Just run it by me first in DMs or matrix. Vaush is a bit of a dead horse, so to speak, so they're still generally discouraged. The qualification for a viable emote referencing his existence is more a matter of execution

- No desecration of religious imagery. This includes things like burning Israeli/Saudi flag emojis. If you can modify the flags while still accurately representing countries without including said imagery, it is much preferred.
- A grey area can be argued around whether the symbol has colloquially evolved past its religious origins (one example of this that can be relatively agreed upon is the Union Jack, which is more a symbol of colonialism if anything). See rule 7 for how to litigate this.
- Nothing sexually explicit or overtly horny is allowed
- :hentai-free:
- No sectarianism in submissions. Pro-tendency content is fine, but we will not accept content degrading specific tendencies.
- No gore, no SA, no sui-bait. Nothing that could reasonably trigger a comrade.
- If you think you're touching on a grey area with a submission, message @whyesseff:matrix.org to clear it before you post.
- DISCLAIMER: Clearing does not necessarily mean that I'll add it, just that it's alright to submit and the rules will not be the barrier to its addition

- No content that breaks the Hexbear Code Of Conduct.
Emoji are added to the codebase periodically. Emoji may or may not be accepted and the dev team has final decision.
All images submitted must be ones you have the right to share with the project. By posting images in this comm, you are agreeing that you have permission to share this image with the project.
Hexbear Code Of Conduct, ToS, Privacy Policy, etc all still apply.

i know. i feel like not even redditors are this much of a redditor.
some of the "memes" in the emoji just reek of like 28 year olds that think they're getting old and say shit like "adulting is so hard! harry potter doggo pupper! when you're adulting but your precious heckin chonker says 'oh my hooman where are you going' and that's a mood for the day."
They're starting to claw their way to the "calling everyone kid in a condescending way totally makes them seem cool and not out of touch and boomeriffic" bracket of internet people.
Alright champ, that's enough Internet for you today. Off to bed.
I'm sorry that you're not a grown-ass adult with a real job or else you would accept the way the world works and stop singing kumbaya.
It's amazing how they have this attitude until someone actually acts on the fact that people don't just magically get along in the real world.
Violence is only acceptable when it's inherent in the system (and benefits me) so that I can ignore it's happening. Any violence done by "the bad people" (doesn't benefit me) is simply anti-democratic terrorism and we don't need to think about why it happens.
This is why one of the youngest people on hexbear is in charge of emotes, I think they're 19 or 20 years old? Prevents stuff like that.

How many emotes does this site have anyways lol
if my personal folder is to be trusted we just hit 2200
More please
ok:
Millennials used to have porn folders, but zoomers just have emoji folders instead
🫡
How long until we have enough that we can start coherently using them as a logographic writing system?
In 2000 years internet archeologists will discover hexbearoglyphics, and not know what to make of it.
I dream of the day my emojis will be guillotined as boomer
28? reads more like someone who's 38+
If you want to see just how down bad Lemmy dot world is on its Reddit addiction, just type old.lemmy.world into your browser's address bar. I'm saying it again, but yeah it's something else.
