So we've enabled Emoji on our iPhones. People on Twitter are using it, we can post it in the forums and view them in Mobile Safari, but on the Mac and in Windows the characters just show up as squares.
A friend and I searched around in the iPhone and have found the Emoji images. They are in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Webcore.framework/ and they are called emoji-XXXX.png, XXXX being the unicode character for each image.
I have extracted the images, gotten them onto my computer and fixed the PNGs so they are viewable on my Mac.
Anything beyond that is definitely beyond my technical ability... Does anyone here know how one might be able to get these Emoji images to show up system wide on the Mac? After talking to a few friends all they could think of were Firefox extensions and Adium xtras.
I want these in Apple Mail, Safari, Twitterific, Finder folders, iCal, etc. they have so many potential uses.
At the very least, I want to be able to view them on my Mac. It would be just awesome to be able to type them, but maybe that is asking too much.
