Emoji Salon allows you to customize the colors of emojis,
just like dressing them up by various cosmetics or coloring them by different paints.
In this branch, we will use Twemoji SVG data for demonstrations. You can select, color, and download your creation as an SVG or PNG for your use.
Additionally, if you intend to use your creation on the website, you can make use of the Twemoji-colr webfont along with modified CSS. The HTML and CSS codes can be found in the Share and More panel (click the Share and More button on the desktop website)
Moreover, the colrv0
branch demonstrates the use of COLR/CPAL v0
color fonts to achieve the same result as svg approach. And the colrv1
shows the advanced experiment about COLR/CPAL v1
by using Noto Color Emoji.
For some people with color vision deficiencies or color blindness, it may be challenging to correctly identify certain emojis that are too similar in color or overly vibrant.
For instance, ๐ฎ๐น Italy and ๐ฎ๐ช Irelandโ ; ๐ท๐ด Romania and ๐น๐ฉ Chadโ ; ๐ฑ๐ป Latvia and ๐ฆ๐น Austriaโ ; ๐ฒ๐จ Monaco and ๐ฎ๐ฉ Indonesiaโ .
However, most current emoji designs do not take them into consideration. This website aims to provide easily distinguishable emojis for such individuals.

COLR
(Color) andCPAL
(Color Palette) are OpenType technologies to enable the use of multi-colored glyphs and emoji in fonts.

is an extended version ofCOLR/CPAL v0
, designed to elevate the capabilities of color fonts, such as gradient color support.- For example:
@font-palette-values --overridePalette {
font-family: "Twemoji";
base-palette: 0;
override-colors:
0 #00ffbb,
1 #007744;
}
.mod-emoji {
font-family: "Twemoji";
font-palette: --overridePalette;
}
