How do you add emojis to your signature?

@divinedolphin
Fun question If you go search on the internet for "unicode emoji," you might get a website like this one which lists the unicode for each emoji.
For example, I want to add a "hugging face" to my signature. The code for this is "U+1F917."
Linux
If your operating system is Linux (like mine), you will press these three keys simultaneously: "Control-Shift-U".
You should get an underlined "u":
Now I'm going to type the number that appear after the "+" sign in the Unicode, which is "1F917" for "hugging face."
Now I press enter and get my hugging face:
Windows
On the other hand, if you're using Windows, there are some instructions here that I found while poking around the Internet.
Some websites tell you to type the number code first, and then type Alt-x.
Mac
Or on a Mac:
"Choosing the Unicode Hex Input method alters the behaviour of the “option” key. To place U+03B1 into your document, hold down the option key and – while holding it down – tap the four keys 0, 3, b, and 1 in sequence. On pressing the last of the four, the character α appears; you can then release the option key."
Sorry that I'm unable to test out the Windows and Mac instructions! Please leave a comment and share with us your methods for manually typing in unicode symbols.

I'm trying to change my signature to a green shirt, but the shirt emoji has red and white stripes on Windows (it's green on some computers).

What if I set it in my signature?

Yeah in the signature it's a red and white striped shirt, but in a message it's green.

For Mac users, you go to Edit on the menu bar and click on it.
Then, go to Emojis & Symbols and click on it.
Then, you can choose which emoji you want.
If you want multiple of the same emojis, highlight the emoji you want to copy and press Command+C. Then, press Command+V as many times as you want of that emoji. You should have multiple emojis now.
