A few months ago I made a custom emoji for use in two of our products: Basecamp, the best project management app; and Campfire, IMHO the best real-time team chat.
Why Neckbeard? At first it was a joke—picking up on that Internet meme. But now he’s quickly become one of our most beloved emojis in Campfire. He’s also the unofficial mascot for our neckbeardiest co-worker’s pet projects. Neckbeard also made his way into GitHub and Turntable.fm (thanks guys—shout out to Emoji Cheat Sheet too).
I like Neckbeard so much, and I don’t want him to be limited. I want you and your friends to use Neckbeard in ways that we can’t. I want you to modify him and improve him as you see fit.
Here’s the downloadable vector illustration. The Creative Commons license is below. Thanks for downloading Neckbeard. I hope you have fun with him as much as we do!
