APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SHARING DIGITAL CONTENT OF AN IMAGE ACROSS A COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide an image processing and sharing system that includes a first computer operably connected to a second computer on a network. The methods and systems allow an image on the first computer to be shared across the network with the second computer. The methods and systems generate a web page on the first computer, generate a multi-resolution representation of an identified image, associate the multi-resolution representation with the web page, provide to the second computer controlled access to the multi-resolution representation via the web page on the first computer, and provide an output image associated with the multi-resolution representation to the second computer when the web page is accessed by the second computer.
