Seeing which ones both Chrome and the board supports. (Do any of these NOT display for anyone?)

I think this is more a matter of having installed the right font that supports all the Unicode glyphs. For the record, I saw all of them on an up-to-date installation of Chrome and Windows 7. Interestingly, only a few of the glyphs showed up on mouseover preview, the others being rendered as boxes.

I only see a handful of them, most of the render as squares.

Using Chrome 43.stuff on an old MacBook Pro running 10.6.8

They all render on my Moto X. One of the few things that works better in tapatalk than on my laptop. 🙂

Ok, too many people wouldn’t see them, so no emoji in posts.

I’m on my work computer now, which is also Win7 and Firefox. I also see all of them in the OP.

ETA: They also all show up correctly in Exapno Mapcase’s quote.

That’s weird. I’m using Chrome and I can see them here in the thread and in the mouseover.

I’m using Win 8 rather than 7. Maybe that’s the difference.

I see them all on my iPhone (iOS 8), but that’s to be expected, though I never really thought to use emojis on a message board.

Win8.1 tablet with IE11.

The OP and **Exapno** ’s quote of the OP are 100% good. The various cut & paste exercises are about 95% boxes & 5% emoji. I suspect the problem is they didn’t have the right support on their device & pasted boxes, rather than them pasting legit emoji and the rest of us now seeing boxes.

Same result on a Winphone 8.1 using IE or tapatalk. Same as above.

Interestingly, the emoji are in color in tapatalk but are B&W in IE on the phone and tablet.

Chrome 43 & Windows 7 64 bit.

\*\*Lumpy’s \*\*original is fine, \*\*Exapno’s \*\* quoting of it is as well, but \*\*Czarcasm’s \*\* post is mostly black diamonds with questions marks in them.
