She’s also working on a “Let’s go Giants” emoticon for all you Giants fans out there.These are the sparkles you can copy and paste into your Instagram bio, Blog post, Facebook, and any social media. Loly is a stand alone app on the App Store for now but Pell tells us she is working on a keyboard version you’ll soon be able to integrate with your other keyboard settings. You can text, email, send a Loly on Facebook or copy it to send some other way. Those Facebook stickers are now available within comments, events, and groups as well as messages. Even Facebook has recognized the trend and has opened up more ways for us to use emoji to express ourselves in other areas. On top of that, emoticon addiction is real, especially among the young (or young at heart). “I especially love the more obscure emoji like an animated Gnome Chomsky that says ‘Question everything’,” added Gina Bianchini from MightyBell. Pincus wrote in to TechCrunch that even her 70 year old aunt was getting a kick out of using it. Everyone from Twitter co-founder Ev Williams to One Kings Lane’s Alison Pincus have said they use Loly. But so far the app seems to be doing well with the Silicon Valley crowd. It’s a crowded space, with hundreds of emoticon apps out there to choose from. Use the “lightening bulb” and then add the cheeseburger emoji to text your friend that you think the two of you should go grab a bite to eat, for instance. Just like with regular emoji, you can also mix and match any of these to convey the exact phrase you are hoping to get across. Some of my faves are the blinged-out “Dope” emoticon and the one that has a picture of some tote bags that says “totes.” It’s just ridiculous enough to get a laugh from your friends. Life – You’ll find some larger than life shades that say “cool” on the lenses and pair of heels with the letters “GNO” underneath in this section.This is section is also one of the paid sections. There are a lot of flowers, chocolates and an animated beating heart. Love – Save this section for someone special.You can get emoji gifs like “Felix the cat” or Pharrell’s hat. Animated – This section will cost you 99 cents.Word Up – this category will let you choose words in typeset such as “BASIC” or “HOLLA.” Some are also gif animations of words that express laughter or “LOL.”.Greetings – These are emoticons that are supersized play-on-words pictures such as a cartoon bomb to express to the sender that you think they are “the bomb.”.Lips – These are all animated “blow me” type red lips that let you express with emoticons like “My Lips Are Sealed” or “Twerk It Lips.”.There are six distinct categories of emoji in Loly: “Emoji and emoticons have been such a hot topic lately which is why I created something I thought was sorely missing in the market,” says Pell. She likened the creation of Splendora to her new venture Loly and says she even sketched out all the emoji herself before handing it off to a design team. Pell joined Joyus after the acquisition but left a couple years ago to take some time off. That got acquired by Joyus a few years back. Pell is the founder of early e-commerce fashion site Splendora. Online fashion pioneer Gina Pell created the new app to fill a need for the “chic and stylish” to have a better way to express themselves. Move over boring old static smiley face and wine glass emoticons, Loly is a new, bigger, prettier emoji app now available on the App Store.
