Abstract
One or more embodiments of the disclosure include a customized image character system that generates and provides customized image characters across computing devices. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the customized image character system provides a color modifier control as part of a messaging application for drafting digital messages with standardized image characters. The customized image character system can detect user selection of a standardized image character (e.g., an emoji image) and a new color (via the color modifier control) and dynamically generate a customized image character (e.g., a customized emoji image). The customized image character system can also send a digital message to a second client device such that the second client device displays the digital message with the customized image character.
