Dear god-king Retro of the NerdZone Empire, I as your humble netizen ask for your consideration to add the following emoji: the Shifty shifty.gif

The Shifty is a remnant of the Hype.fm forum, a once flourishing community for appreciators of all sorts of EDM styles. If someone posted a cheeky comment: shifty.gif
If someone would reply to that cheeky comment: shifty.gif
If a user got mentioned and that particular user would later enter the thread: shifty.gif (without added text, just "shifty.gif", as it would just say it all).

The Shifty has character, it is incredibly versatile. And it is an extremely rare little gif, it truly is a genuine gem from the old internet. For about 23 years I have saved this legendary emoji (back then people more often called them emoticons even). Implement The Shifty and it will light up the entire empire, your majesty, I promise you.

Thank you for your consideration.

Cute emoji! 😇 I have many emoji's saved from the early 2000's that are my fav's including rare emoji sets that I would pout greatly if my laptop crashed and I lost them. :cry: *I do have them on an external drive, I think? Now I'll have to look since my laptop is acting up again since a Microsoft update.😠

I'm fine in principle with adding that emoji and even others, but it's gonna be in a while I'm afraid.

I've got that OSA headache to look at which will decide the whole future of the forum first, so everything else is on hold at the moment. Also, I extended the Like icon set a long time ago and don't remember how I did it, so will likely need some help with this. Note that the rendering style and size of that emoji will have to fit in with the existing set and won't be animated.

Very understandable, first things first! No rush, I'm happy enough that you're fine with it. Hopefully things will work out with the OSA.

Until then I will.... shift.... manually. 1000011156.gif
