Instead of giving us a brown mushroom πŸ„β€πŸŸ« emoji why didn’t you just make the option for the existing mushroom πŸ„ to change colors? And do that for other emoji’s like swan 🦒 The option to change it to black πŸ–€ and peacock 🦚 the option to change it to white 🀍 and the heart emoji’s just give us the color change option 🌈 same for the flowers πŸ’ especially the rose 🌹 still wait on my sea 🌊 turtle 🐒

I like the harp. New emojis are always cool, especially musical ones. I’m still planning to submit my Lighthouse, Barn and Dragonfly in the next round. Please keep me updated on the next date to submit. Thank you.

Is it possible to submit suggestions for an emoji yourself? I have designed an emoji and would like to have it reviewed. Maybe you like it.

Why does the fingerprint’s assigned codepoint differ to what it states in the original proposal?

Here’s the original proposed sequence:

β€’ Joining

– index pointing up (U+261D) + (magnifying glass tilted left (U+1F50D)

OR microscope (U+1F52C)) = FINGERPRINT

Purely curious how this is decided and would appreciate any insight, thank you!

Will any of these be emoji zwj sequences or are their assigned codepoints likely finalised?

I'm convinced that if I could arrange these 7 new emojis in the right order I'd get an episode of Columbo . . .

Have these been added to 16.0 officially, or are they still just candidates? This seems a bit unclear on that point.
