Here, the elements may be classified into attributes according to whether they belong to images or characters, or may be classified into attributes according to the meanings they represent. For the attributes of the elements, please refer to the following embodiments, which are not described herein again.

The layout information of an element may be a position parameter of the element on the interface where the element is located, and the position parameter may be an arrangement layout relationship of a plurality of elements in the interface. It should be noted that, when the size of the interface is adjusted, the elements may be adaptively adjusted according to the corresponding proportion according to the adjustment of the size. However, the layout relationship of the elements, that is, the positional relationship between the elements does not change.

Here, the first interface may be a communication session interface. The communication session interface often has some private information that is not readily displayed in the generated image and requires processing so that the private information is not displayed in the first target image. In order to further improve the convenience of the image generation method for processing the communication session interface, the elements can be divided according to the communication session interface in the image generation method, so that a user can conveniently perform corresponding processing on different elements.

The element above may comprise one of session information, session object name, session object avatar.

The communication session interface can be a session interface of instant messaging software, and can also be a session interface of short messages, mailboxes, private messages and the like. The session interface typically includes at least two session users. The conversation between the conversation users generates the conversation information. A conversation user may also be referred to as a conversation object or communication object, and a conversation object may have a name, avatar, or the like.

The session information can be a chat record in a communication session interface, and the chat record can comprise characters, images, red packages, account transfer records and the like.
