This clean and compact tool enables you to easily create your own language!
You can either redraw individual letters/numbers/symbols, or draw symbols for entire words or sequences of characters, or both.
A built-in translator allows you to see your language written out in real-time.
You can either export the translated words with the english translation included or excluded. You can also export a nice printable reference sheet which shows the symbol for each english character or character sequence.
Languages can also be displayed in all 6 different word orders such as Subject-Verb-Object, Object-Subject-Verb, etc.
Languages can also be arranged so that they are read right to left instead of left to right.
This tool was designed for fantasy world builders like myself.
NEW in V1.1.0 (downloadable version only): You can now do lowercase letters too if you toggle the switch for it! Also partial words or syllables can be overwritten within words if toggled as well! For example the "oo" could be replaced with 1 glyph so that within each word with "oo" it would be overwritten with the 1 glyph.
NEW in V1.2.0 (downloadable version only): You can now upload your own PNG image for each letter, word, or syllable if you want to use an external editor. You can also select an area of the PNG that is of similar color and make it transparent, so that it looks better in the translator tab. If you load it up with too many hi-res PNGs, it may disable autosaving in the browser due to memory limitations, but you should still be able to save it by exporting it manually.
Please pay just $2 to access the most-updated downloadable version, to help support the time and resources I have spent to create it, thank you!

could you make this a off line downloadable software. I would pay for that with commercial use.
Done! I also updated it so that it is a new version which supports the distinction of lower-case letters, and the ability to replace syllables or partial words within words with a single symbol if desired. Let me know if there's anything else I should add!
Thank you this will be very useful as being a world renown secret service spy outfit we were at a loss as how to communicate in secret. so now with this we can end up as Trump's C.I.A. - unemployed. I do appreciate this. One thing that would be useful is a P.N.G. importer so as to use complex designs as glyphs
Haha, alright, I have put up a new version that enables PNG import for each glyph. For 24 hours, I will make the new version free to download, just for you.
The Agency thanks you, no more reading the Times newspaper upside down with words underscored. This may well bring about world piece.
Haha, awesome! You might also like my newest app, PixelLock, which is an encryption/decryption tool that can do images (PNGs) as well as text messages: https://corinsol.itch.io/pixellock
