Four kinds of picture
Pictures in colored squares holds eleven pixel drawings, from a heart to a sailboat, each seven squares wide except the rainbow, which is nine. Shapes built from one emoji has six, such as a heart of 27 hearts. Scenes has eight, each four lines of six emoji.
Put your own words in a frame
Five frames come first: sparkles, hearts, flowers, a party and a rainbow. Paste one, then type over the line in capitals. The rows of emoji above and below stay as they are, however long your line is.
- A box narrower than a row wraps it. The wreath is narrowest, five emoji across; every note gives the size.
- Tales told in emoji, one scene to a line, are on emoji stories.
Questions and answers
How do I copy and paste emoji art?
Tap a picture and all of its lines are copied, line breaks included. Then paste into a message, a comment or a bio. Nothing is typed by hand unless you chose a frame.
Why does emoji art come out scrambled?
Usually the box is narrower than the picture, so each row breaks in two. Eighteen of the 30 pictures are seven emoji wide and ten are six. The emoji rows hold no spaces, so squashed spaces are not the cause.
Do the colored squares show on older phones?
The black and white squares date from Emoji 0.6, and the seven colored ones arrived with Emoji 12.0. Twenty-one of the 30 pictures need Emoji 12.0; nine get by on older emoji, and each note says which.
Where is emoticon art made of keyboard characters?
On the text art pages, one subject to a page: cats, hearts, stars and more, drawn in typed characters. This page keeps to pictures built from emoji.
