For those that love using Emoji apps for emoticons, why aren't they updated??

Why don't the people that make these emoji apps UPDATE THEM???

They are fun to use, but they havent been updated in years!

Is there a way we can make our own funny icons?

I believe the reason they are not updated is there really is nothing an update can provide. The emoji font is already on your phone and all these apps do is enable the existing font.

With iOS5 you do not even need one of these apps, you can just enable the emoji keyboard natively in iOS5.

Hmm, so how and who would be the ones to ask if we wanted updated icons.

This explains who controls the standard.

Wow, pretty involved I guess for it to be updated.
