๐จ Creator 101: How to Use Unicode 8 Pictures in Your Posts
Lesson 1: Emoji, Symbols & Secret Text Sauce
๐ก Ever wonder how some creators get โจstarsโจ in their status, weird arrows like โค or โ, or even fancy checkmarks โ๏ธ instead of boring ol' bullets? Thatโs Unicode.
๐ What Is Unicode?
Unicode is like the international language of symbols. Version 8 added a bunch of characters like:
๐ฑ Animals
๐ Nature
๐ง Tools
๐ฌ Speech bubbles
๐ง Mind-blown emoji
โ๏ธ Writing hands, because we creators gotta create
These work anywhere text is allowedโcomments, bios, posts, even usernames (sometimes).

๐งฐ How To Use Them
๐น OPTION 1: Copy + Paste
1. Go to a Unicode emoji site like:
emojipedia.org
unicode-table.com
2. Find a symbol you like.
3. Copy it.
4. Paste it directly into your Facebook post, comment, or bio.
> ๐ง Example: Instead of writing "Tools I use:", say "๐งฐ Tools I use:" โ it hits harder.

๐น OPTION 2: Use Your Phone's Keyboard
Most modern phones support Unicode 8+ emojis natively:
On Android: Tap the emoji button on your keyboard
On iPhone: Same, emoji keyboard
On desktop: Right-click > Emoji (on some apps) or use shortcuts:
Windows: Windows Key + . (period)
Mac: Control + Command + Space

๐ค Want Fancy Text Too?
Unicode also includes special fonts (technically symbols). Try:
๐ฝ๐๐๐๐ช ๐๐๐ฉ๐ฅ
๐๐พ๐ป๐ผ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ
แดษชษดส แดแดแดs
๐๐ค๐ฃ๐ค๐จ๐ฅ๐๐๐
Use generators like:
lingojam.com/Fancy-Text-Generator
fsymbols.com/generators

๐ Pro Tips from The Blessed Creator:
โ
Donโt overload your post. One symbol per line is powerful.
โ Donโt use too many different typesโit looks spammy.
โ
Use symbols for section headers or emotional tone.
โ
Match symbols to your brand (e.g. if youโre all about cats: ๐พ๐ธ๐ป)
