I can see the brown heart. I can't see the image before it.

That is the image, it's showing the alt text.

Interesting. When I quote madge's post I just see the emoji in the comment box. So madge just posted an emoji and the page is showing me a broken image but then showing the emoji after it anyway?

When I type an emoji it seems to replace it with an image of the emoji, but with the emoji as alt text.
<- I typed an emoji, appears as <img alt="" class="emoji smilies" draggable="false" src="//twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f431.svg">. So if the image is broken, it'll show the emoji from your system font instead (since it's the alt text). Looks like your browser also shows the broken image icon next to the emoji.

<- I assume this shows as "[broken image icon] Image" on your browser, whereas mine just shows "Image", and if the image existed it'd just show the image.

You assume correctly!

that was all very techinical!

yes i did a brown heart. i am rotating between all the heart colours when i do heart emoji because my humanhusband got so confused when i sent a few purple and blue hearts to him, he wanted to know how eomen choose their heart emoji colours, so now i'm going to use every colour in rotation

brown is a very cat/rat friendly oclour though as it's the colour of many of their fur!

(Only some of those show up on my computer)

What I see there:



Looks like for grey and pink it doesn't even try to show me an image!

My personal favourite heart emoji is:

mine looks exactly the same!!!! thank u for saving me the trouble darling

Anything for you, sweetheart!

i'm glad we help each other out~~~

I really like yellow and double heart

i never really had a favourite heart until i heard the heart with the bow was the least popular and now i like it because we all like an underdog.... er, undercat?

I like that one because I like chocolates and it's clearly a box of them.

*noms*

huh i never thought of it as a box of chocolates! yummo

I think technically cats shouldn't eat chocolate, but we can say they're cat-friendly ones somehow.

or we're chocolate-friendly cats

they're pretend chocolates so we can do whatever we want

*pretends to eat*

*pretends to find them delicious*

*tries to find some way to multiply them by -i*

aye aye, cap'n !

Take a shower.
