The one that is used right now is this one: [http://emojione.com/demo](http://emojione.com/demo)

It turns out there are more variations of the emojis that we can use as well: [https://meta.discourse.org/t/emoji-selector-and-custom-emoji/22725](https://meta.discourse.org/t/emoji-selector-and-custom-emoji/22725)

Let me know if you all are OK with this selection or whether I should try the Google, Apple, or Twitter one 🐘

The current ones are decent; hopefully Discourse will just fall back to using actual emoji in a few months/years when Chrome for Windows (etc.) finally supports them properly.
