Re: Emoji for major planets at least?

Perhaps we all shall stop being ironical to each other, calm down, sit and discuss how to encode 3D animated emojies (animojies) in Unicode. Adopting something like COLLADA would be sweet. I guess COLLADA, being XML-based standard, already can be encoded by Unicode, so it shouldn't be a lot of

Sorry guys if I step in uninvited, but I must say that I had hoped that the subject of this thread was ironical. Do you guys want to have an emoji for every entry of some encyclopaedia? You need JPEG, PNG, etc., not Unicode. Sorry Walter 2018-01-18 22:10 GMT+01:00 Philippe Verdy via Unicode

Well, you can go with Venus = white planet, Mercury = grey planet, Uranus = greenish planet, Neptune = bluish planet, Jupiter = striped planet. As you say, though, without a context, none of them convey much and Venus, at least, would just be a circle. Plus there's the question of the context
