Abstract
A messaging application receives a request from a user to create a custom sticker. The messaging application identifies an image for the custom sticker. Based on the image source of the identified image, the messaging application processes the image. Processing steps may include cropping the image, adding custom content to the image, resizing the image, rotating the image, and others. The messaging application creates a custom sticker based on the processed image and locally stores the custom sticker. The custom sticker may then be accessed and selected by the user of the messaging application to transmit to other users via the messaging system.
