| 摘要 |
The present invention provides techniques that allow a user to generate an image of a landmark, which can be a famous location, monument, etc., which image includes written comments added by the user. The comments may appear to be on or partially on the landmark. The comments may express sentiment of the user associated with or inspired by the landmark, similar to inscriptions or graffiti, but allowing the user to express such sentiments without altering or defacing the landmark itself. Techniques are also provided in which another user or users can add additional comments to the image, which can then be shared with other users, or selectively shared with certain users or friends. Techniques are also provided in which users can generate or utilize a virtual wall or virtual surface, which may at least partially be visibly in front of the landmark, on which to write comments. |
