Emojione

Version 2.x of Emojione is no longer supported by Ranks.com. Version 3 has a slightly different design and new, more restrictive licensing terms. Some people prefer the flat cartoon design and the FOSS license with actual access to the SVG sources.

EmojiTwo

The artwork of the second generation of the web's first complete open source emoji set. It is and will stay 100% free.

Differences between Emojitwo and Emojione 2.x

Emojitwo is restricted to the artwork, i.e. image files. SVG is its native format. Everything else is derived from that.

As of its initial release in April 2017, Emojitwo did not contain any additional artwork.

Additions

Unicode 9 beta emojis Rifle and Modern Penthatlon have been resurrected.

Changes

Documentation has been updated to
1. encourage contributions to the artwork,
2. use Emoji Two instead of Emoji One where appropriate.

Removals

All programming libraries have been removed. Reusable meta data files will remain.

Plans

Emojitwo shall eventually include graphics for new emojis:

Characters defined in the Unicode Standard 10.0 (June 2017) and later.
Sequences documented in Unicode Emoji 5.0 (March 2017) and later (UTR#51), e.g. flags.
Characters extended in Unicode Emoji 6.0 and later (UTS#51).
Existing Unicode characters without the Emoji property, especially to match other vendors (especially Microsoft and Samsung).
Custom sequences and alternatives, especially those supported by other vendors.

Emojitwo shall adopt a more restricted color palette. Actual changes will be subtle and barely noticable. This will affect flags.

Emojione 2.x Artwork License

Emojione Artwork Attribution

With the release of version 3.0, the Emojione project also made changes to 2.2.7’s licensing. Previously, Emojione did not require attribution for non-commercial and personal use. Considering that the Emojione project only changed the documentation in that branch to mandate attribution in any case, Emojitwo forked a state before those changes for greater flexibility.

For non-commercial and personal use, you should credit the creators. For commercial use, proper attribution must be given on every web page, app, or video description where our emojis are displayed.

Creative Commons Requirements

In section 3(a)(1) of the CC-BY 4.0 legal terms, it lists the following as the guidelines needed to fulfill the attribution requirements:

If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must:

retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor with the Licensed Material:

indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
