I wish I was better with photoshop. I wouldn’t be able to contribute in an artistic way but just wanted to say that these are awesome. I always felt custom emojis and stickers were a great way to boost engagement and give the time spent in certain servers a more “personalized” feeling.

Anyone want to make me one? lol :stuck_out_tongue:

JD, you were a crucial part of this from the very beginning. Together, we found great ways to engage the community naturally, just taking it one step at a time without overthinking where it might lead. From those first emojis, who would’ve thought we’d end up with an Emojipedia, a Townhall… Haha! Great teamwork as always, man!

Thanks, @Qwerl32! The best part is that it all came together so naturally, stemming from community interactions! :wink:

Glad you liked it, @sumptuous! Haha, it took some effort, but it was totally worth it! Everything flows when you’re having fun!

:sunglasses: Cheers, @lochie2001!

I’m only just beginning to understand the power all of this can have, indeed!

Hahaha! Yeah, that one’s real funny!
Let’s discover together what they’ll become! The Clan keeps growing stronger every day!

Firstly: What a visually vibrant proposal. I don’t think, out of all the proposals I’ve seen across the many governance forums I’m on, one as visually appealing as this.

Is the plan to put all these cloudie emoji into the Discord (I see a bunch are there already) or is there a plan to expand out to other channel too (aka TG)? Obviously there’s going to be a limit to how many you can add, what happens when you hit that? Is there a process for cycling emoji out and new ones in? Will this be an ongoing thing or one time campaign to get the emoji filled out on the Discord?

Do you have any ideas about how to get them used on the Discord more?

As goes rewards I’ll throw in 100 $CLOUD. Just let me me know when and where to send it.

Hey Andrew! Wow, I can’t thank you enough, once again!

(Side note: Guys, for those who don’t know, Andrew is always organizing Sanctum Art Contests, rewarding people for their creations!)

I’ve set up a wallet specifically for this initiative and the NFT Collection grant, so you can send the $CLOUD there, please:

It’s very rewarding to hear that you found this proposal so appealing! We’ve put a lot of effort into the Emoji Clan, and seeing such positive feedback makes it all worthwhile - this is for the community, after all! I’d say their unique quality isn’t just how beautiful they are, but how meaningful they’ve become, each one full of stories and fun details, which is why I had to document everything!

All the emojis are already up on the Discord server and getting lots of use! I’ve also started creating emoji and sticker packs on Telegram, so feel free to reach out to me there if you’d like them (@luciotamino). Discord’s emoji limit is pretty generous - 250 emojis - so we still have room for 176 more! If the numbers start to get overwhelming, we can think about curating them. We’re already working on sorting and organizing, so it’s a good start. They’ve become a hit on Discord, so there hasn’t been a need to push their use, but if you have any ideas for boosting them anyway, I’m all ears!

The goal was never just to fill up Sanctum’s Discord with emojis. It all developed naturally, one emoji at a time. The idea for this collaborative project came to me after @Halfa donated the first 500 $CLOUD for the creation of POAP NFT #04. I had the idea to make it a collaboration rather than a competition, so I needed to find a way to include the contributions of as many community members as possible in a single piece of art, which wasn’t easy. That’s when I came up with the idea of the emoji mural, and it’s proving to be the perfect solution!

This will stay an ongoing project, but once the POAP Collab wraps up, there won’t be necessarily token rewards tied to it anymore :wink:

Brother I appreciate this. I can’t believe something that we started to have fun with and just playing around with emojis we would love to see, ended up generating community engagements and active participation. We gave to an entire ecosystem of emojis and community alike. They had become a representation of us, embedded into the Sanctum universe (Sanctu-verse).

Cool. Tokens sent.
What if I wanted to get a hold of the assets and run some art remix contests on Solarplex/Kaichi? How could I do that?
You’ve posted images in this proposal but where did those come from?

Received! :raised_hands: Thank you again, on behalf of the Sanctum community!
You can get them all on the resources page we’ve been building at Cloudie.so! Feel free to do your thing, man! Let us know if you do, so we can share it, including here in the emojipedia, as it would be another awesome branching of this project! :sunglasses:
