Overview
Emojis are awesome. We think Edmontonians deserve their own line of digital stickers for their texting needs — what we affectionately call EDMOjis.

Stuck on YEG 

You love Edmonton. We love Edmonton. We also love emojis — so we wanted to make some inspired by the people, places and preferences of our city. 

We’ve already designed a bunch of EDMOjis — including the Talus Dome, green onion cakes, the Gretzky statue, sad Don Iveson — and a rough draft of our app. 

We’d like to bring more than 60 of them to life … and to your iPhones. We’re hoping to raise $1,000 to finish our designs and the app. Complete with keyboard. 

Our goal? To sell the app for a very affordable price. (As in less than three bucks.) With the possibility of free updates to add new EDMOjis, of course! We'd love to hear your suggestions. 

 

Personalize your texts 

Have you always wanted your own emoji?

You're in luck! For some of our perks, we're offering to design an EDMOji (or two) for you — of you, your dog, your band, your company, your favourite YEG landmark ... you get the picture. 

We'll include your EDMOji in our app ... and we'll give you a copy of the app, so you can text your personalized image to all your friends (and foes).  

If that's too over-the-top for you, most of our perks just offer a copy of the app (or two). Oh ... and did someone say BUTTONS? 

 

Other app-tions

Don't like texting? Don't own an iPhone? That's OK, you can still help.

Spread the word as far and wide as you can — through Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, your weekly call to Gran. We know you're inundated with requests and we appreciate all the support we can get.

THANK YOU.

 

Behind the screen

EDMOjis are the brainchild of two friends who share a love of sports and crazy ideas.

Sandra Sperounes is a former Edmonton Journal writer and a lifelong #YEG booster. As a kid, she was an avid sticker collector, so it’s no wonder she’s passionate about emojis and EDMOjis. Her next goal? Scratch ’n’ sniff EDMOjis. 

Lucas Timmons is a digital guru and former Edmonton Journal staffer. He now works for Canadian Press. He cheers for the San Francisco Giants and likes to taunt Sandra with Kimojis. She grins and bears it because without Lucas, there would be no EDMOjis.
