Aug 11, 2016 6:56 PM in response to Madisonlclark97by Kurt Lang,The forums won't show an emoji font character, so I don't know which one you mean. You'd have to take a screen shot of the emoji and drop it into a post as an image.
But anyway, Apple has nothing to do with what emojis are used. The Emoji Consortium decides what goes where.

Apple Color Emoji - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Color_Emoji
Apple Color Emoji is a color typeface used by iOS and OS X to display emoji, a series of ideograms originally created by Shigetaka Kurita for use in Japanese mobile phones.[1][2]
The inclusion of emoji in the iPhone and in the Unicode standard has been credited with promoting the spreading use of emoji outside Japan. Unlike the black & white outline of early emoji, the typeface has full color images for each of the 1407 glyphs it supports. As with many Apple icons past and present, they feature a design based on deep, saturated colors and gradual transitions of color, often incorporating subtle gloss effects.

Aug 11, 2016 7:27 PM in response to Kurt Langby ChitlinsCC,Soooo, if one is viewing in OS X version that has AppleColorEmoji font installed on the system, one should be able to see them
Methinks that the " **** " is one of the 7 words you can't say on TV

Aug 11, 2016 9:00 PM in response to ChitlinsCCby bobseufert,I think it's a Forum thing rather then what operating system you're on that determines why we can't see them.
To test I'll add an emoji.
And no emoji show up. Bummer.

Aug 11, 2016 9:14 PM in response to bobseufertby ChitlinsCC,it was just a theory anyway... I can't even think of how one would invoke AppleColorEmoji font in the TinyMCE editor... copy/paste from some other app? Dunno.
The point is, even if you could see it yourself, a Windoze computer would not see it
The Apple "character" used to be a problem for Windoze until Apple changed to this neato new font which has the character as part of its character set
I have it in a Clipboard add-on where it looks like this until it posts
.  .APPLEapple
If Apple loaded AppleColorEmoji FONT like it does Myriad Set Pro FONT, we could emoji 'til the cows come home.

Aug 12, 2016 4:28 AM in response to ChitlinsCCby Tom Gewecke,Your postings on this are not very accurate.
Windows and Android have their own emoji fonts and, just like Apple devices, normally see all those allocated by the Unicode standard, either in color or black and white.
The Apple character is not an emoji, it is a special character in the Unicode Private Use Area and is normally only included in Apple fonts, so Windows and Android users will normally not see it unless they install something extra.
The non-display of emoji here is an app or forum software problem, you can easily find it in the source code for the page, it is the one for "Hole", U+IF573

Aug 12, 2016 10:47 AM in response to Tom Geweckeby ChitlinsCC,OK.
You just proved what I said... AppleColorEmoji is a font just like Windoze and Android emoji - Apple devices do not see "specific TO" those platforms any more than they see Apple's
My point about the AppleLogo character was that it is included in the font that is loaded by ASC for viewing teXt in this venue - AppelColorEmoji is a font - Myriad Set Pro is a font that includes the AppleLogo character so Windoze and Android CAN see it because it loads when those users visit ASC
Your black hole posted is an IMAGE inserted here, not using unicode to post it as a text character

Not sure exactly what you meant by that. But emoji are standardized. Every platform should see them, using the installed emoji fonts. There should be no need for any web font to be "loaded" from a web server. It should work for ASC just like it already works for Mail or Message or numerous other web pages. I don't know why it doesn't, but Apple should fix it.

Aug 12, 2016 12:26 PM in response to Tom Geweckeby ChitlinsCC,If all that is so, my Win10/FF and my AndroidFone/FF should see your emoji, right?
I refer you to my post with screenshots showing that it apparently ain't so > Re: Re: Hi I was just wondering why the **** is this an emoji?
I personally do not miss emoji in ASC... Emoticons suffice for me and if I need further stuff I can always GoggleImage for it
Off with their heads!

No, because ASC doesn't work right for emoji with any platform.
Do your Win10 and Androidfone have any problem seeing emoji in email or messages or properly done websites like the Unicode Chart (Brow. column) or Stack Exchange Ask Different (megaphone in first line of question)?

Aug 12, 2016 12:40 PM in response to ChitlinsCCby Kurt Lang,AppleColorEmoji is a font
Yes, we know that. But the Emoji Consortium decides what Emojis are in the font, which new ones are added to it, and in what Unicode position. Apple just follows along with those guidelines.
Here's the current chart from the site I initially linked to:
http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html
It's very long. You should be able to find the matching Unicode entry for every Emoji in Apple's font to that list. For instance, the baby at u1F476:
And yup, that's where it is in Apple Color Emoji.ttf:
You'll also notice that many of the Emojis that could be in the font, aren't.
