Highlighted Text Overview
Make text pop with blocky markers around each character: 🟨t🟨🟨e🟨🟨x🟨🟨t🟨. The bright squares frame every letter like a highlighter strip—bold and attention-grabbing, yet still pure text.
Turn a short title into a high-visibility banner by bracketing every glyph with bright squares—think 🟨H🟨🟨i🟨🟨g🟨🟨h🟨🟨l🟨🟨i🟨🟨g🟨🟨h🟨🟨t🟨. It creates a bold, sticky-note effect that draws the eye to key words and calls-to-action.
Highlighted Text — yellow tile framing for instant emphasis
This style wraps each character with a yellow block on both sides (e.g., 🟨t🟨🟨e🟨🟨x🟨🟨t🟨). The repeated tiles read like highlighter tape across the line while preserving your original letters and numbers.
Use for
- Snappy CTAs, labels, and menu chips (e.g., NEW, LIVE, SALE).
- Short headers in link pages or bio hubs that need strong contrast.
- Step markers and milestone tags where clarity beats ornament.
How to shape it
- Keep it to 1–4 words so the tiles don’t overwhelm the layout.
- Pair with normal text before/after to create a clear focal point.
- Test critical phrases on target devices; emoji size can vary slightly.
Practical notes
- Length expands ~3× (each letter becomes
🟨x🟨)—watch platform character limits. - Digits are framed too (e.g.,
🟨2🟨0🟨2🟨5🟨); punctuation stays as typed. - Great for contrast on minimal backgrounds; avoid dense paragraphs.
