  5. I like the new Pennsylvania license plates. They have the Liberty Bell in the background and at the bottom the slogan: "Make Freedom Ring" is a good slogan for it.

    I wonder if it's only new cars or if the PA Govt is going to make us all change our plates?

    Have you seen them?

  6. New #emoji for Jawns: the #LibertyBell logo used by the City of #Philadelphia government. :libertybell: Does the black outline improve it? Should it be thicker, or absent?

    I also previously added the old Veterans Stadium liberty bell logo, but didn't announce it: :liberty_bell: (Thanks to @snarkmaiden!)

    Jawns, please feel free to suggest more custom emoji, ideally with a 400x400 pixel PNG or an SVG that I can convert, and a one word description to serve as the emoji's shortcode.

    On July 8, 1776, a 2,000-pound copper-and-tin bell now known as the #LibertyBell rings out from the tower of the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, summoning citizens to the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence.
