Re: "I want to be a goat (requests for new avatar icons)"
Just curious, why are you opting-in emoji on demand instead of making all of them available?
Jun 17 · 5 months ago
As mentioned in the first comment, I want to keep control over them mostly to avoid potential UI icon conflicts. Many currently unlisted Emoji would probably be fine, though. It would be ideal if all available avatars were distinct enough from each other as well.
Maybe I'll loosen this up in the future...

Given my last name is Moonfire, I'd love for a non-face moon to be made available. Failing that, just fire.
Otherwise, the trigram for fire (which feels like cultural appropriation to me but moon or fire is better than nothing?)
@dmoonfire Bubble v5.1 has some new avatars for you, available now.
how about a 🦥 ? is it possible to add ?
Any chance of getting the goblin/tengu emoji? 👺

How about the radio? 📻
@solderpunk New avatars are now available.
Sorry about the delay @aRubes and @xergi, I've been in vacation mode so I completely forgot your requests. 😅
Yet another reason for me to look into adding support for emoji to AmiGemini
I'd like a scorpion, if possible! 🦂
@akrabu Scorpion is now available.
how about octopus 🐙 ? (:
btw it would be great if we were able just to paste/input our emoji character as avatar.
or maybe use a line of emojis to describe ourselves.
@norayr See my earlier comment:
Octopus can be added, sure.
How about an owl 🦉? Because owls are not what they seem...
@norayr @albeert Octopus and Owl are now available in Settings.
yaaay, i was checking for it every couple of days. ty!
i was also thinking about owl. because many of us tend to sleep later than others. (:

I desire the power to be a donut, such as I am, if it is deemed worthy as an emoji to add.
@wholesomedonut The Doughnut avatar has been added.
how about a mountain (u+26f0)? mountains are cool.
theres a devil avatar but how about an angel 😇
@murdock @kait The avatars you requested are now available.
Could we please get some form of rabbit? Either 🐰 or 🐇 would be fine by me.
@bubstance Added a 🐰 Rabbit.
It would be awesome to have more options for the profile icon
