I would like to use a mirrored emoji(📢) in an imessage - is that possible? (I am interested in both mirrored, flipped and rotated emojis)

I have tried to use http://fliptext.net but is does not support emojis. I have tried to take a screenshot, and crop it to only the emoji(and rotate it), but for some reason it also gets stretched. What is the resolution of original emojis? -maybe a mirrored emoji can be prepared on a computer and transferred to the phone?

Edit : I would like the new emoji-picture to look just as nice as the original(resolution, antialiasing and size) - I have had no luck achieving this.

Does it need to be sent as text or can it be sent as an image? From a developers point of view, I can only see this if we crop and rotate the emojis and make a new keyboard for them. Don't think it is possible with integrated Emoji keyboard. – emotality Jun 26 at 11:39
    
@emotality: I do not believe that the unicode mirrored chars exist, so a image is ok, and I do not even need a special keyboard for them(unless that is the only way). – Hans-Peter E. Kristiansen Jun 26 at 12:40
    
I think it is the only way. You want it developed? – emotality Jun 26 at 12:42
    
@emotality: I would definitely spend a few $ on an app(keyboard) that could mirror(and maybe rotate) emojis - if the new emojis looked and acted(can be combined with normal text) just as nicely as the builtin ones. – Hans-Peter E. Kristiansen Jun 26 at 12:48
    
Okay will look into it and let you know. :) – emotality Jun 26 at 12:59
