Earlier this year, I started a journal feature called Random Emote Awesomeness. It showcased a variety of emoticons, some old, some new, some by seasoned emoticonists, some by new artists. There was no real rhyme or reason as to which pieces were featured. Sometimes I picked a theme such as animals, other times is was just whatever struck my fancy. I have decided to resurrect this feature as a news article. Below are a group of awesome emotes hand-picked by me.
Much like the title, this News feature will publish a bit randomly. Maybe weekly, maybe every third Thursday, maybe three days in a row--but always at least once a month.
The first issue in this series features all of the emotes I showcased in my journals from January to May 2010 (at which time I put the feature on hiatus). Future issues will feature fewer emotes and may feature come commentary on exceptional pieces.
Note that several emotes have been excluded due to the fact that the artists removed the deviations.============================================
