AI Welcome Emoji Generator
Welcome emoji maker
Welcome as an emoji is open arms, a waving hand, or a door with light behind it. A character with both arms wide is the friendliest and reads at small sizes, which is what a new-joiner thread wants.
Emojis you create are public and may appear in Explore.

Tips for a great welcome emoji
- • Lead with the subject: start your prompt with “welcome”.
- • Add one clear emotion or action - happy, angry, dancing, waving.
- • Name a style: 3D, pixel art, sticker, flat, or claymation.
- • Mention an accessory or color to make your welcome emoji unique.
- • Keep it to one subject so the emoji stays crisp at small sizes.
Where to use a welcome emoji
Every welcome emoji downloads as a transparent PNG, so it drops cleanly into a Slack or Discord custom-emoji slot, a WhatsApp or iMessage sticker, a Notion or Figma board, a Twitch or YouTube channel, or anywhere you’d use a reaction. Generate a set of welcome emojis to give your team chat or community its own personality.
Welcome emoji FAQ
What is a good welcome emoji for new team members?
Something with the team's mascot or colour waving or opening its arms, so the first reaction a new person gets is recognisably from this team and not a stock hand.
Wave or hug for a welcome emoji?
Wave for a public channel, open arms for a friendlier team. A hug between two figures is harder to read at 32 pixels than one figure with both arms out.
Can I customize the welcome emoji style?
Yes. Add details to your prompt - colors, accessories, mood, or art style - and the generator will tailor the welcome emoji to match. Try the example prompts above to get started.
Where can I use a welcome emoji?
Anywhere that accepts an image: Slack and Discord custom-emoji slots, WhatsApp and Telegram stickers, Twitch emotes, Microsoft Teams reactions, Notion, and more. The transparent PNG drops in cleanly on light or dark backgrounds.
