There was some discussion of it in the Custom Reactions thread and I liked it too, so I figure I'd make it an official suggestion.
I think it’d be nice to make the reactions part of the emoji list too so they can be used in posts instead of relying on the ”Facebook” emojis.
Though I understand if that might look cluttered.
Wouldn't it be possible to add the unused ones or the ones that didn't make it to reactions, to the smilies/emoticon thingies? That way the work put on them isn't lost.
Add reactions to an RGT section in the emote list so we can use them like this: ::dkapproves
And some others too.

WarCraft 2 - Evil Grin / Grinning Goblin

I didn't play these games and there didn't seem to be many things suitable for emotes, so it was hard to figure out. Decided on an edit of the Goblin Sappers unit. I think it's pretty good.
Sounds good!

All there is a left is the grunt icon he is just SCREAMING in that icon

I was actually looking at that one when I was deciding on a WarCraft emote.

Unfortunately it's too big for 32x32 and too small for 48x48.

There's a similar looking orc in another icon but it still a bit too big for 32x32 and too much of the right side is chopped off.

I suppose someone could redraw it but that's beyond me. The amount of detail they shoved into those icons is astounding.

Outstanding work bro I admire your efforts , yes blizzard decided to focus heavily on artstyle in wc2 which resulted in very good looking icons like the paladins and death knights
 
Redraw of Chocobo Wave:

I knew it was on the small side and I wanted to redraw it before but I failed at it twice already so I gave up. Gave it another shot yesterday and it looks good. It's still got some weirdness, especially in the feet but that's impossible to avoid with the odd scaling.
 
I think we could do with a laughing Kefka emoji.

Here's the 24x24 original, a 32x32 I did real quick, and a 48x48 upscale.
32x32 has the same problem as the chocobo though. Odd scaling makes it weird in places.

EDIT: May as well post this too.

Higher quality, cleaner, and no more chopped off arm.

Be damn cool if we get an emote from every FF game of the first 6 games , FF1 and FF2 better use something more up to date like origins visuals.

We NEED the black chocobo doing his little cute dance before flying

I got a rough draft going.

obviously it needs proper timing.

This was a pain to put together because there was no sprite sheet available for the black chocobo.
I had to get a video on youtube, screencap each unique frame, crop and resize each frame, clean up the sprites a bit (could probably use a bit more cleaning on some frames), then recreate the animation.

Wow you work really fast! Nice stuff!
 
Here's a sidequest:
Do we have any "anime sweat drop" smile? I wonder if any games implemented a sprite with it, surely some must have? Something like this:

How about the sonic idle animation?
View attachment 51854
Unfortunately Sonic's standing idle is a bad size for 32x32 or 48x48 (28x38).
Laying down would work as a 48x32 though.

There's was a Touhou one that I was going to redraw but I got lazy.

barely even started.

Sailor Moon arcade also has some but I wasn't sure which to choose. Ideally it would be Sailor Moon but her twin tails get cut off making it look weird.

Awesome work you impress me again bro! You are carrying the emote scene alone
 
you mean as a react or an emoji in general? React discussions go here.
 
Hear me out

Just thought of this and thought it’d be a fire idea to add to the pool of reactions

Happy Harkinian redraw

I had this done about 3 weeks ago. It was for my own entertainment because I found it funny how much he looked like the FeelsGoodMan emote.

I'll get around to the sweat drop emote when I figure out which one I want to do.
