Of course you can also use fonts (even marvosym), but they will only
show ugly black-and-white strokes which is probably not what you want.
At least originally was it what I wanted. Because when you use fonts they
scale to the fontsize you are using. So I would think that looks the best.
But you make a good point.
If you need help with setting up some particular font, feel free to ask.
But you should be able to get automatic scaling of png images based on
line height. If images come in different sizes, you need a bit more
trickery, but it is doable. Just ask again once you find the suitable
images.

It does exactly what I want. :-D
Would be a nice one to make a macro from. Have to delve first more deeply
into ConTeXt. I do not know enough about parameter handling. (Named,
variable, …)
I went one step further. Because I found the upper and lower parts to small,
I used:
\midaligned{\vbox{%
\clip[ny=5,y=1]{\color[blue]\MyLogo}
\clip[ny=5,y=2]{\color[blue]\MyLogo}
\clip[ny=5,y=3]{\color[yellow]\MyLogo}
\clip[ny=5,y=4]{\color[red]\MyLogo}
\clip[ny=5,y=5]{\color[red]\MyLogo}
}}
But now the second blue and the second red part become black. Why?

When playing with it, I found that it seems like every rotation wants its
own vertical space.
But this is only the case when the rotation is the first thing to be printed
on the line. So I changed it to:
\
\rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
\rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}
and because it is nicer to have it centered:
\midaligned{
\
\rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
\rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}

You can also use color when you have a font with different layers:

My suggestion would be to find a set of PNG (or other) images that you
like, put them all into some subfolder and then define a list in the
spirit of:
\def\smiley{\externalfigure[img/smilies/smiley.png][height=\lineheight]}
Of course you can also use fonts (even marvosym), but they will only
show ugly black-and-white strokes which is probably not what you want.
Well, you can of course colour them, but it will still be plain
single-colour vector image. If you want your documents to look nice,
you should fetch nice images from somewhere.
(If you want auto-replacement to work, you need a few more hacks, but
I would personally not like smilies to be inserted automatically.)

[NTG-context] Apple Emoji (was: Smileys)

Is this a ConTeXt or a LuaTeX limitation? LuaTeX. Actually, it is a limitation of 99.9% of software out there. I wasn't able to display the font with any single font editor, including FontForge and XeTeX (maybe XeTeX would work if somebody would port it to 64-bit and corresponding new Apple libraries).

I am still quite inexperienced with ConTeXt. I found the following document:
http://statweb.calpoly.edu/jdoi/web/reference/symbols-a4.pdf
It is for LaTeX, but I can not find ConTeXt specific stuff. In table 188
there is a smiley. This brought me to to following:
\starttext
\usesymbols[wasy]
\symbol[was][smiley]
\symbol[was][qed]
\showsymbolset[general]
% \showsymbolset[music]
% \showsymbolset[astronomy]
% \showsymbolset[astrology]
% \showsymbolset[geometry]
% \showsymbolset[physics]
% \showsymbolset[apl]
\stoptext
The smiley does not display, instead I get the text smiley. Also it is not
shown with the \showsymbolset. Why?
Is there any documentation about how to work –for example– with the dingbats
font. At the moment I am just feeling like shooting in the dark. :-{
When knowing how to do it, I could try to make a smiley module. ;-}
By the way: do I understand correctly that with \showsymbolset the second
column shows how the character is displayed and the third columns shows the
used space for the character?
