Image distribution method, image distribution server device and chat system
First Claim
1. An image distribution method, comprising:
- in response to a handwritten input starting upon a display view of a touch panel display of a first terminal device, causing, by a server, a second terminal device to display a first image, the handwritten input including a message that is input by handwriting via a touch operation by a first user of the first terminal device to the display view when a virtual space is displayed in the display view and a character of the first user is present in the virtual space, the handwritten input being input directly on the virtual space displayed in the display view;
in response to the handwritten input upon the display view ending, receiving, by the server from the first terminal device, an image of the handwritten input; and
sending, by the server to the second terminal device, the image of the handwritten input as a message of the first user of the first terminal device, and causing the second terminal device to display a second image that includes the message upon the virtual space and in association with the character of the first user.

Abstract
An image distribution device receives, from a terminal device, a handwritten and input image including a trajectory handwritten and inputted by a first user in a state where a virtual space, in which characters of the first and a second user are present, is set as a background, to a display view of the terminal device on which the virtual space is displayed. By transmitting, to the terminal device, the received handwritten and input image as a message from the first user, the image distribution device displays the handwritten and input image on the display view of the terminal device on which the virtual space is displayed while associating the handwritten and input image with the character of the first user.

6. A server, comprising:
circuitry configured to in response to a handwritten input starting upon a display view of a touch panel display of a first terminal device, cause a second terminal device to display a first image, the handwritten input including a message that is input by handwriting via a touch operation by a first user of the first terminal device to the display view when a virtual space is displayed in the display view and a character of the first user is present in the virtual space, the handwritten input being input directly on the virtual space displayed in the display view; in response to the handwritten input upon the display view ending, receive, from the first terminal device, an image of the handwritten input; and send, to the second terminal device, the image of the handwritten input as a message of the first user of the first terminal device, and cause the second terminal device to display a second image that includes the message upon the virtual space and in association with the character of the first user. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer program instructions, which when executed by a server, cause the server to:
-
in response to a handwritten input starting upon a display view of a touch panel display of a first terminal device, cause a second terminal device to display a first image, the handwritten input including a message that is input by handwriting via a touch operation by a first user of the first terminal device to the display view when a virtual space is displayed in the display view and a character of the first user is present in the virtual space, the handwritten input being input directly on the virtual space displayed in the display view; in response to the handwritten input upon the display view ending, receive, from the first terminal device, an image of the handwritten input; and send, to the second terminal device, the image of the handwritten input as a message of the first user of the first terminal device, and cause the second terminal device to display a second image that includes the message upon the virtual space and in association with the character of the first user. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
