        My only concern with these new reaction emojis is the sign of the horns. While most of the US and Europe see them as meaning “rock on” or “cool” some folks interpret them negatively and their meaning might not be clear to others (that’s why we also have the explanations above the emojis). If anyone here has concerns about any of the emojis, please…Read More

      @lamia6 Like me, you have a pretty diverse musical background — but in the end, I think you might also find this amusing. What do you think? My daughter is pretty candid when I show her designs, and she really liked this one a lot. So, we have the youth vote in — and it’s favorable!

      I had too much fun making these. I had input from my daughter, a HS student who loves graphic design and has taken a couple of courses. My objective was to make these emojis fun and rock and roll. I’d love your thoughts.

      After trial and error, I replaced the LIKE reaction for OPEN MIC with a hand doing the sign of horns. The emojis are really small and it was difficult to make anything out. So, after trying some variations, I found one that worked best (the emoji you see above this text).
