Change emojionearea-picker icon image by smiley font or some way to change its default color

[jsmitjans]

Hello mervick,Is there any way I can replace the emoticon icon that opens the picker with an emoji icon font? The problem is that I am working on a website that has 2 themes, one dark and one light, and in the dark theme I need the background of the textarea to be black, but when I change the color, then the emoji picker icon is not looks good.Thanks in advance. Here is an example of what I need to do:(I need for a dark background to show the icon in white or light color ) https://jsfiddle.net/qjw9bs0o/1/

For quick fix you can invert colors in css

.emojionearea .emojionearea-button {
  -webkit-filter: invert(100%) hue-rotate(180deg) contrast(90%) !important;
  filter: invert(100%) hue-rotate(180deg) contrast(90%) !important;
}

If you don't like that, you can change it by modifying css

That's the same way I did it, but is there any way to make that emoji completely white?

It's an image, take a look at css. https://github.com/mervick/emojionearea/blob/99129f7/dist/emojionearea.css#L555

If you want to change image, just do it
