IRC @badge-info, How to get emotes data?

default will draw the emote as animated or static depending on which kind it is

Currently there is no actual light/dark variance I know of between any emotes

Whats your use case for this?
Why do you need this information.

The URL to an emote is templated you just would always use default

The format of the image to get. For example, a static PNG or animated GIF. Use default if you want the server to return an animated GIF if it exists, otherwise, a static PNG.
