A lot of us are deeply grieved by the abrupt replacement of one of our favourite emojis and hope that we get it back. The change is apparent on the WhatsApp emoji palette among others.

Emoji: U+1F601

Before: http://www.fileformat.info/info/emoji/grin/index.htm​ http://www.iemoji.com/view/emoji/11/smileys-people/grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes

After: http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html#1f601 (Take a look at the Apple version)

We hope that the change is reverted and we get back our favourite emoji.

Thanks!
