An electronic messaging system including first and second user devices wherein each user device receives a plurality of user-generated glyphs, defines a font using the plurality of user-generated glyphs, receives a message styled in the font, exchanges the font and the message with the other user device, and displays the sent message styled in the sent font and the received message styled in the received font. The user-generated glyphs may be received by the user drawing the glyphs on a touchscreen interface, by taking an image of handwritten glyphs, and by remixing existing fonts. |

1. An electronic messaging system comprising:
a first user device; and a second user device in communication with the first user device; wherein the first user device includes:
a first wireless communication subsystem,a first user interface,a first controller in communication with and controlling the operation of the first wireless communication subsystem and the first user interface, anda first memory in communication with the first controller, the first memory including instructions that, when executed by the first controller, cause the first controller to:
prompt, via the first user interface, input of a first plurality of user-generated glyphs into the first user interface, wherein each user-generated glyph is uniquely associated with a character,receive, via the first user interface, the first plurality of user-generated glyphs,define a first font using the first plurality of user-generated glyphs,receive, via the first user interface, a first message styled in the first font,transmit the first font and the first message to the second user device via the first wireless communications module,receive a second font and a second message via the first wireless communications module, anddisplay, via the first user interface, the first message styled in the first font and the second message styled in the second font, wherein the second user device includes:
a second wireless communication subsystem,a second user interface,a second controller in communication with and controlling the operation of the second wireless communication subsystem and the second user interface, anda second memory in communication with the second controller, the second memory including instructions that, when executed by the second controller, cause the second controller to:
prompt, via the second user interface, input of a second plurality of user-generated glyphs into the second user interface, wherein each user-generated glyph is uniquely associated with a character,receive, via the second user interface, the second plurality of user-generated glyphs,define the second font using the second plurality of user-generated glyphs,receive, via the second user interface, the second message styled in the second font,transmit the second font and the second message to the first user device via the second wireless communications module,receive the first font and the first message via the second wireless communications module, anddisplay, via the second user interface, the first message styled in the first font and the second message styled in the second font. |
