    More choice in generic icons for macros ?

    So i've been looking far and wide even mods to find a way to have an icon for my macros of commonly used emotes like greet, goodbye, dance, laugh etc... But the game just has a list of 4 small pages if generic icons like numbers arrows but nothing very usefull for emotes. Would it be possible to add more icons i mean when you send a message on your phone you get tons of emoticons. Why couldn't a list of them be added the game so we don't have blank macros anymore. You not gonna tell ne its gonna take a team of 100 developpers 20 years ti ad more icons ?? Even world if warcraft had a more extensive list with even all the spell icons you could use

    And that works for everything that has a icon.
    Emotes, skills, items, mounts, minion's.

    Just tried as you stipulated with "Salute" "Laugh" "Goodbye" "Dance" "Imperialsalute" "Sit" "Congratulate" and none of them gave me said icon sorry. The only ones that do work however are my own spells. So no in my opinion none of the most basic emitions have an icon

    /micon "Emote Name" emote

    It took like... 3 seconds of googling to find this. Learn to look things up.

    This is how it should look.
    On the bottom right is also a button to display all possible macros.
    It shows you exacly how get spells, Items, summons, etc. displayed.

    Ya that's my bad. I forgot to mention you have to place the word emote after the icon name similar to pvp abilities need to have the word pvpaction after theirs so like /macroicon "Apex Arrow" pvpaction.

    Well ty very much as it is working, might have been obvious for some but this was actually the missing piece of my puzzle. Problem solved
