2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is known a photography amusement machine in which a user performs graffiti on a photographic image obtained by photographing a subject (user) and provides the user with the graffiti photographic image printed on a sticker paper.

Graffiti in a photography game machine is, for example, a pen tool that draws characters or pictures on a photographic image, or a stamp tool that selects individual stamp images representing characters or figures and places them at a desired position on the photographic image. Various functions are provided for graffiti. On the other hand, the time for graffiti in a photo game machine is limited, and the user must perform graffiti on the photo image within the time limit. Especially for users who are unfamiliar with graffiti, even if a variety of graffiti functions are available, they may not be able to be used for graffiti on photographic images within the time limit. . Therefore, various techniques devised so that the user can easily perform the graffiti operation in a short time have been proposed.

Specifically, the photo sticker dispensing device described in Patent Document 1 below includes an image of a sample photo that has been doodled and an image of a sample item selection palette of image editing items that have been used for the graffiti of the sample photo. Are displayed together with the image of the photo to be edited. In addition, the photo sticker creating apparatus described in the following Patent Document 2 displays an edited model sample image corresponding to a background or foreground synthesis image selected by the user for a photographed image to be edited during graffiti, When the user selects the edited model sample image, the composite image for editing used in the edited model sample image is pasted together on the captured image. In addition, the photo sticker creating apparatus described in Patent Document 3 shown below is selected by displaying a plurality of synthesized images synthesized with a predetermined editing composition image for each of a plurality of photographed images to be edited during graffiti. The captured image corresponding to the composite image is edited with the editing composite image used in the composite image.

Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2005-210272 JP 2009-258488 A JP 2013-0776818 A

When graffiti is displayed, a sample image in which an individual edit image such as a predetermined stamp image is arranged is displayed, and the edit image in the sample image is pasted on the photographic image in a batch according to a user operation. Even a user can easily doodle a photographic image.

However, even if a developer of a photography game machine prepares various individually edited images for each function for graffiti, it does not know how to arrange the individually edited images, There is a situation in which the individually edited image is not fully utilized because it cannot be arranged and the design of the photographic image is deteriorated. Such a situation is likely to occur in an individually edited image that has few elements that are directly related to the user, such as the date and the name of the user.

In view of such circumstances, it is an object of the present invention to provide a photographic amusement machine and a control program therefor that can promote the use of an individual edited image prepared in advance when editing (doodle) a photographic image.

Therefore, editing of the photographic image using the individual edited image is possible. You can make the user image. Therefore, the user can edit the photographic image using the displayed individual edited image while referring to the sample edited image of the sample image. As a result, when editing a photo image, only the individual edited image for each category is displayed, or compared with the case where the sample image is displayed on a different screen from the individual edited image. The operability is improved and the use of individually edited images can be promoted. In addition, by editing the photographic image using the individual edited image while referring to the sample edited image, the photographic image has a higher design than when the user edits the individual edited image independently. Can be finished. In addition, the user can perform an edit input of the individually edited image and a sample image selection operation. Therefore, for example, if a sample image is selected when the graffiti time is insufficient, the sample edit image can be edited on the photo image, and the photo image can be edited efficiently.

In the above photographic game machine, the sample image may be an image obtained by combining the sample edited image with an image of a subject extracted from the photographic image. According to this configuration,
Since the subject (user) shown in the photographic image is used for the sample image, the user can clearly image the finish of editing the photographic image by the sample edited image by the sample image.

In the above photographic game machine, the sample image may be an image obtained by combining the sample edited image with an image generated in advance using a model different from the subject of the photographic image. According to this configuration, the user can easily imagine the finish of the editing of the photographic image by the sample edit image by using the sample image.

In the above-mentioned photography game machine, the display means further displays a switching button for switching the display of the sample image, and sequentially switches a plurality of different sample images in the respective categories according to the operation of the switching button. It may be displayed. According to this configuration,
Since a plurality of different sample images can be switched and displayed, the user can perform editing using the individually edited images with reference to the plurality of sample images. Therefore, compared with the case where only one sample image is displayed, the use of the individually edited image can be further promoted.

In the above photographic game machine, the generating means performs upper body photographing for photographing the upper body of the subject and whole body photographing for photographing the whole body of the subject with the camera, and the display means is configured to display the displayed photograph. When the image is generated by the upper body photographing, the sample image having a size corresponding to the upper body photographing is displayed. When the displayed photographic image is generated by the whole body photographing, the whole body photographing is performed. The sample image having a corresponding size may be displayed. According to this configuration, since the sample image having a size corresponding to the upper body photographing or the whole body photographing is displayed, the finish of the photographic image can be made to be imaged by the user as compared with the case where the sample image is displayed at a constant size. .

The control program according to the present invention includes a generation step of shooting a subject with the camera and generating a plurality of photographic images on a computer of a photographic amusement machine equipped with a camera, and the photographic images selected from the plurality of photographic images. Display step for displaying a plurality of individually edited images belonging to each category classified by decoration images and a sample image including a sample edited image indicating an example of use of the individual edited image of each category in units of categories And editing input using the individual edited image and selection of the sample image for the displayed photographic image, and when the selection of the sample image is received, for the displayed photographic image And an editing step for editing the sample edited image in the sample image.

, 4101B. In the example of FIG. 10, the thumbnail image S1 is selected in the thumbnail image display area 4102A, and the thumbnail image S2 is selected in the thumbnail image display area 4102B. In the thumbnail image display areas 4102A and 4102B, the CPU 103 causes the characters “Rakugaku” to be displayed in the display areas of the thumbnail images S1 and S2 of the photographic images displayed in the editing areas 4101A and 4101B.

The editing screen 410 displays an editing tool for decorating the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101. The editing tool includes individual edited images that can be combined with a photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101. The individual edited images are classified according to the use and function of the individual edited image. In the example of FIG. 10, the tool selection tab 4103 (4103A, 4103B)
Are classified into “Special”, “Stamp & Message”, “Fashion”, and “Pen” tools. Here, “message” of “stamp & message” is an abbreviation of “message stamp”, and is a kind of stamp including characters or sentences, such as “LOVE YOU”.

Each user clicks a tool selection tab 4103 of a desired tool on the touch pen 412.
Select with. In the example of FIG. 10, the “Stamp & Message” tool is selected by the user on the left side, and the “Special” tool is selected by the user on the right side.

In addition, the individual edited images of each tool are classified into categories according to the decoration images. The decoration image is the content and meaning of the decoration of the individually edited image, the atmosphere and taste of the decoration,
One of the decoration modes is shown. In the example of FIG. 10, the “special” tool includes an individual edited image 418 that individually represents a user's name, date, and the like. This individual edited image 418 is “name” as shown in the palette selection tab 4104B. , “Date”, “birthday”, “anniversary”, “season”. For example, the category “Name”
Individually edited images in which the user's name is designed are included, and the “date” category includes individually edited images in which the date of play is designed. In addition, the “stamp and message” tool includes individual edit images 418 individually representing characters, graphics, combinations of characters and graphics, and the individual edit images 418 are “pink” as shown in the palette selection tab 4104A.
× Black, “rouge”, “line drawing”, “symbol”, “fluff”, “initial”. For example, the “pink × black” category includes individually edited images decorated with pink and black colors, and the “rouge” category includes lipstick characters and figures. An individually edited image with a decoration like drawing is included. In addition, the “initial” category includes individually edited images representing the letters of the alphabet.

On the editing screen 410, each of the “special” and “stamp & message” tools selects an individual edited image included in each category according to the user's touch operation, and a position desired by the user on the photographic image. And an input function (stamp function) for arranging the selected individually edited image. Each tool of "Special" and "Stamp &Message" has an input function,
Although common in that the individual edited image is classified by the decoration image represented by the individual edited image, the classification (category) of the individual edited image is different. The “special” tool has a category indicating the meaning and contents represented by the individually edited image, not the decoration atmosphere and taste of the individually edited image, and the individual edited image including elements directly related to the user is classified. ing. "Stamp &Message"
The tool has a category representing the decoration atmosphere and taste of the individually edited image, and the individually edited images with few elements directly related to the user are classified. Note that the “Initial” category of the “Stamp & Message” tool includes individual edited images that represent each letter of the alphabet, and does not represent the atmosphere or taste of the individual edited images, but directly to the user. It is classified as a “stamp and message” tool in that there are few elements involved.

Each user touches the palette selection tab 4104 of the desired category with the touch pen 4.
12 to select. In the example of FIG. 10, the “pink × black” category in the “stamp & message” tool is selected by the user on the left side, and the “name” category in the “special” tool is selected by the user on the right side. It shows the state.

In the present embodiment, on the editing screen 410, a plurality of different individual edited images are displayed for each category of the above tools, but a sample image is further displayed for a specific tool category. The sample image includes a sample edited image showing an example of use of the individual edited image in the category of the specific tool. This will be specifically described below with reference to the example of FIG.

As shown in FIG. 10, in the editing tool display area 4105B on the right side where the “special” tool is selected, an individual edited image display area 4108 in which a plurality of individual edited images 418 belonging to the “name” category are arranged is displayed. Has been. In this example, the “name” category is illustrated, but the individual edited image display area 4108 in which individual edited images corresponding to the respective categories are arranged is displayed in the same manner.

On the other hand, the editing tool display area 410 on the left side where the “stamp & message” tool is selected.
5A includes an individual edited image display area 4108 in which a plurality of individual edited images 418 belonging to the “pink × black” category are arranged, and a sample image display area 4109 in which sample images of the “pink × black” category are arranged. It is displayed. The individual edited images 418 displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108 of the “stamp and message” tool are some of the individual edited images 418 belonging to the “pink × black” category.

In the example of FIG. 10, for the sake of convenience, the individual edit image 418 in the category “pink × black” is represented in black and white, but is actually an image based on pink and black. Also,
In this example, the category “pink × black” is illustrated, but the editing tool display area is also used for other categories (“rouge”, “line drawing”, “symbol”, “fuwa”) except “initial”. In 4105A, an individual edited image display area 4108 and a sample image display area 4109 of each category are displayed. In the “initial” category, only the individual edited image display area 4108 in which individual edited images representing the letters of the alphabet are arranged is displayed.

Here, the sample image display area 4109 will be specifically described. FIG. 11 is an enlarged view of the sample image display area 4109. As shown in FIG. 11, in the sample image display area 4109, switching buttons 4110L and 41 for switching display of the sample image 419 and the sample image 419 are displayed.
10R and a “use combination stamp” button 4111 are displayed.

The sample image 419 is an image obtained by combining the sample edited image 419a on the subject image 400 of the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101. The sample edited image 419a includes a predetermined individual edited image belonging to the selected category, and the sample image 4 of the individual edited image is displayed.
19 is an image in which the position, size, and angle at 19 are set in advance. In the example of FIG.
A sample edit image 419a is illustrated in which a pen image a1 generated in advance using the “pen” tool and an individual edit image a2 belonging to the “pink × black” category of the “special and message” tool are combined. The pen image a1 is in the category “pink × black”.
Although it is not the individual edited image displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108, “pink × black”
It is an image according to the category. The individual edited image a2 is an image having the same decoration as the individual edited image 418a displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108 in the category “pink × black”.

The sample edited image 419a is an individual edited image 4 displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108.
18 may be included, or other individual edited images that are not displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108 may be included. However, the individual edited images that are not displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108 are predetermined images belonging to the respective categories as described above. Also,
The sample edit image 419a may be an image formed by combining an image created by a tool other than the “stamp & message” tool and an individual edit image of the “stamp & message” tool, or the “stamp & message” tool. The image may be a combination of a plurality of individually edited images, or an image composed of only one individually edited image of the “stamp and message” tool.

In the sample image display area 4109, sample images 419 having different sizes are displayed depending on whether the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101 (see FIG. 10) is an up-photo image or a whole-body photo image. The Specifically, when the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101 is an up-photo image, a sample image 419 having a size of an aspect ratio “1.2: 1” of the up-photo image illustrated in FIG. 12 is displayed. The When the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101 is a whole body photographic image, a sample image 419 having a size of the aspect ratio “16: 9” of the whole body photographic image illustrated in FIG. 13 is displayed.

As described above, in the case of the “up whole body photographing course”, at the time of photographing, four up images are first generated, and then two whole body images are generated. In FIG. 10, thumbnail images S1 to S6 displayed in the thumbnail image display area 4102 are arranged in the shooting order. In this example, thumbnail images S1 to S4 correspond to up-photo images, and thumbnail images S5 and S6 correspond to whole-body photo images. When displaying any one of the thumbnail images S1 to S4 in the editing area 4101 according to the user's selection, the CPU 103 displays a sample image 419 having the size illustrated in FIG. 12 in the sample image display area 4109. . CP
U103 selects the photographic image of the thumbnail image S5 or S6 according to the user's selection as the editing area 41.
In the case of displaying 01, a sample image 419 having a size illustrated in FIG. 13 is displayed in the sample image display area 4109.

Each of the sample images 419 illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13 is an image in which a sample edited image 419a including an individual edited image belonging to the category “pink × black” is combined with the subject image.
In the example of FIG. 10, when the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101A is an up photo image, the CPU 103, for example, for example, the sample image 4 corresponding to the up photo image illustrated in FIG.
19, the default sample image 419 is displayed in the sample image display area 4109. Also,
When the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101A is a whole body photographic image, the CPU 103
For example, the default sample image 419 is displayed in the sample image display area 4109 from the sample image 419 corresponding to the whole body photograph image illustrated in FIG. By displaying the sample image 419 having a size corresponding to the photographic image to be edited, the user can immediately image the finish of the editing of the photographic image by the sample edited image 419a used in the sample image 419. .

When the user touches the switching button 4110L or 4110R (see FIG. 11), the CPU
103 sequentially switches the display to another sample image 419 different from the sample image 419 being displayed. In the example of FIG. 11, the sample image 419 shown in FIG.
Is displayed. In this case, for example, when the user touches the switching button 4110L,
When the sample image 419 shown in FIG. 12A is displayed and the switching button 4110R is touched, the sample image 419 shown in FIG. 12C is displayed.

Sample images 419 that are sequentially switched by operating the switching buttons 4110L and 4110R.
Sample edit image 419a is generated based on individual edit images belonging to the same category,
It has a unified design according to the category. Therefore, the user can refer to sample images 419 having various designs corresponding to the categories.

When the sample edit image 419a in the sample image 419 is used for editing the photo image displayed in the edit area 4101, the user uses a “use combination stamp” button 4111 (FIG. 1).
1) to select the sample image 419. The CPU 103 superimposes the sample edit image 419a of the sample image 419 selected by the user on the photographic image displayed in the edit area 4101A so as to have the same position, size, and angle as the sample image 419. Edit photo images. Then, the CPU 103 stores the sample edit image 419a in the memory 105 as an edit image for composition with respect to the photographic image. In this embodiment, when editing a photographic image, the CPU 103 displays a person layer in which only a person who has passed through the background in the photographic image is drawn, a background layer in which a background image corresponding to the photographic image is drawn, and an individual arranged by the user. The graffiti layer 1 on which the edited image is drawn and the graffiti layer 2 on which the sample edited image selected by the user is combined. When the sample image 419 is selected by touching the “use combination stamp” button 4111, the CPU 103 displays the sample edited image 419 a of the selected sample image 419 in the same position, size, and size as the sample image 419. Draw on the graffiti layer 2 so as to have an angle, synthesize each layer and display the sample edit image 41 of the graffiti layer 2
9a is stored in the memory 105.

In addition, when the user touches the “use combination stamp” button 4111 and then displays another sample image 419 and touches the “use combination stamp” button 4111,
The CPU 103 displays a sample edit image 419a of the sample image 419 selected by the previous touch operation.
Instead, the sample edit image 419a of another sample image 419 selected by the next touch operation is displayed superimposed on the photographic image in the editing area 4101A, and another sample edit image 419a is displayed in the memory 105 as an edit image for synthesis. Remember. That is, when another sample image 419 is selected after the sample image 419 is selected, the CPU 103 causes the sample edited image 41 in the graffiti layer 2 to be selected.
9a is erased. Then, the sample editing image 419a of another selected sample image 419 is drawn on the graffiti layer 2 so as to have the same position, size, and angle as that of the other sample image 419. Then, the CPU 103 combines and displays the layers, and stores the sample edited image 419 a of the graffiti layer 2 in the memory 105.

In addition, the user edits the photographic image in the editing area 4101A using the individual edited image 418 displayed in the individual edited image display area 4108 while referring to the sample image 419 displayed in the sample image display area 4109. be able to. In that case, the CPU 103 displays the individual edited image 418 touched by the user in a superimposed manner at a position corresponding to the user operation in the photographic image in the editing area 4101A, and the individual edited image 418 is combined with the photographic image. Is stored in the memory 105. That is, the CPU 103 draws the individual edited image 418 arranged on the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101 on the graffiti layer 1 so as to have the same position, size, and angle as the photographic image. Then, the layers are combined and displayed, and the individually edited image 418 of the graffiti layer 1 is stored in the memory 105.

The individual edit image of the “stamp & message” tool has fewer elements directly related to the user than the individual edit image 418 of the “special” tool, and it is difficult to understand how to arrange them. In such a “stamp and message” tool in which individually edited images that are difficult to arrange are categorized, a usage example of the individually edited images in the category is presented to the user as a sample image 419. Thus, editing using the individually edited image can be performed without hesitation in selecting and arranging the individually edited image.

For example, when the sample image 419 in any category of the “stamp and message” tool is selected after the photo image in the editing area 4101 is edited using the individual edited image 418 of any tool. The CPU 103 displays the sample edited image 419a of the sample image 419 in an overlapping manner on the photographic image on which the individual edited image 418 is superimposed so as to have the same position, size, and angle as the sample image 419. Specifically, the CPU 103 draws the sample editing image 419a of the sample image 419 so as to have the same position, size, and angle as the selected sample image 419, and the editing area 4101. The individual edited image 418 arranged in the photographic image is displayed by combining the graffiti layer 1 drawn with the same position, size, and angle as the photographic image, the person layer, and the background image layer. . And
The CPU 103 stores the individual edited image 418 of the graffiti layer 1 and the sample edited image 419a of the graffiti layer 2 in the memory 105 as the editing image for synthesis.

In the above, the “special” and “stamp & message” tools have been described in detail. However, the “fashion” and “pen” tools shown in FIG.
An individual edited image combined with a photographic image displayed in the editing area 4101 is provided. The “fashion” tool includes, for example, individually edited images for decorating a subject (user) in a photographic image, such as glasses and ribbons, and the individually edited images include a plurality of categories according to the decorative images of the individually edited images. It is classified. The “fashion” tool has the same input functions as the “special” and “stamp & message” tools, and the “special” tool in that individual edited images including elements directly related to the user are classified. And in common. The “pen” tool includes individually edited images that indicate decoration modes such as line types, and the individually edited images are classified into a plurality of categories according to the decoration images. The “pen” tool is a decoration mode indicated by the selected individually edited image, and edits a photographic image by drawing with the touch pen 412, and therefore has a different input function from the other tools described above.

Each of the “fashion” and “pen” tools has an individual edit image display area 4108 in which a plurality of individual edit images 418 are displayed in an edit tool display area 4105. That is, FIG.
In the example of 0, in all tools, a plurality of individual edited images 418 are displayed in the editing tool display area 4105. However, only the “stamp & message” tool has a sample image 419 together with a plurality of individual edited images 418 for each category. Is displayed.

When sample images 419 are displayed for all tools or categories, the display area of the screen
The types of individually edited images 418 that can be provided are reduced. Therefore, as described above, the sample image 419 is displayed only in the category of the individually edited image that is classified according to the atmosphere and taste of the decoration and is difficult to understand how to arrange it in the photographic image. The use of the individually edited image of the category displaying the sample image 419 can be promoted without reducing the types of individually edited images of the category not to be displayed.

In FIG. 10, when each user finishes graffiti on the photographic image displayed in the edit area 4101, the user selects another thumbnail image in the thumbnail image display area 4102, and the edit area 4
The display of 101 photographic images is switched. Each user touches “END” buttons 4107A and 4107B when the graffiti is finished for all the photographic images.

Returning to FIG. 9, the CPU 103 ends the graffiti process in step S <b> 313 by the touch operation of the “END” button 4107 by the user. Then, the CPU 103, for each photographic image (up photographic image, whole body photographic image), the background image selected in step S115,
In the graffiti process, a composite image (up composite image, whole body composite image) is generated by compositing the composite edit image stored in the memory 105. (Step S314).

Next, the CPU 103 displays a sheet layout selection screen (not shown) on the editing display 4.
11 and accepts selection of the sheet layout by the user (step S315).
).

Subsequently, the CPU 103 generates a sheet image for printing on the sticker sheet based on the sheet layout selected by the user (step S316). Specifically, in the selected sheet layout, the CPU 103 arranges the up composite image generated in step S314 in the up composite image area, and in step S314 in the whole body composite image area.
The whole-body synthesized image generated in the above is arranged and synthesized to generate a sheet image.

FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a sheet image when “up whole body photographing course” is selected. As illustrated in FIG. 14, the sheet image 510 includes four up composite images 51.
01 and two whole body composite images 5102 are arranged. When “up shooting course” is selected as the shooting course, as illustrated in FIG. 15, six up composite images 51 are displayed.
A sheet image 511 in which 01 is arranged is generated.

Returning to FIG. 9, the CPU 103 determines whether or not the post-service unit 5 is available (step S317). If the customer service section 5 is not available (No in step S317), CP
U103 displays a standby screen (not shown) for prompting the user to wait for the editing display 411.
(Step S318). When the subsequent customer service section 5 is vacant (step S317)
If yes, the CPU 103 transmits the sheet image 510 or 511 generated in step S316 to the printer 650 and starts printing (step S319). CPU
Reference numeral 103 denotes an editing screen 4 for displaying a guidance screen (not shown) for guiding the user to the customer service section 5.
11 (step S320). The CPU 103 may cause the speaker 413 to output a voice for guiding the user to the post-service section 5 together with the display of the guidance screen.

<2.4. Subsequent customer service>
Next, the subsequent customer service process (step S40) will be described. FIG. 16 is a flowchart of the subsequent customer service process.

The CPU 103 displays a start screen on the reception display 51. When the user who has moved from the editing booth 4 touches the start screen with a finger, the image transmission process is started (step S411). Further, the CPU 103 outputs sound necessary for operation to the speaker 53.

When the image transmission process is started, the CPU 103 causes the reception display 51 to display an image selection screen (not shown) for selecting an image to be transmitted to the user terminal device. On the image selection screen, the four up-synthesized images and the two whole-body synthesized images generated in step S314 are displayed. If six up composite images have been generated in step S314, six up composite images are displayed on the image selection screen. Among the images displayed on the image selection screen, image selection is accepted when the user touches a desired image.

Next, the CPU 103 sends a notification e-mail describing the URL for acquiring the image selected by the user to the user, and therefore displays an input screen prompting the user to input an e-mail address on the reception display 51 (FIG. 4). Display). The user inputs and decides an e-mail address according to the guidance on the input screen.

Subsequently, the CPU 103 transmits the mail address input by the user and information on the selected image to a server (not shown). The server transmits a notification mail in which a URL for obtaining an image transmitted from the photography game machine 1 is described to the email address transmitted from the photography game machine 1.

The user can acquire the selected composite image by accessing the URL described in the received notification mail. In addition, users can register as a predetermined member,
All the images that were not selected can be acquired.

The processing in step S411 is executed during the waiting time until the sheet image printing processing in step S319 in FIG. 9 ends. When printing of the sheet image is completed in step S319, the CPU 103 discharges the sticker paper (photo sticker) on which the sheet image is printed from the photo sticker discharge port 52 (step S412). Up to here is a series of plays for a set of users.

In the above-described embodiment, the individual edit image 418 of the “stamp & message” tool has fewer characters and figures that are less directly related to the user than the individual edit image of the “special” tool representing the name, date, and the like. Etc., and it is difficult to use for reasons such as not knowing how to use it. In the above embodiment, when the generated photographic image is doodled (edited), the “stamp and message” tool uses a plurality of individually edited images 41.
8 and a sample image 419 are displayed. The user can edit the sample edit image 4 included in the sample image 419.
With reference to 19a, the photograph image can be edited using the individually edited image 418 of the “stamp and message” tool. Therefore, even a user who does not know how to use the individually edited image 418 of the “Stamp & Message” tool can finish the photo image with high design, and the individual edited image 418 of the “Stamp & Message” tool can be used. Can be promoted. Further, for each category, an individual edited image 4 corresponding to the category.
18 and the sample image 419 are displayed, the individual edited image 418 and the sample edited image 419a having a unified design can be used by the user, and the user can finish the photographic image with a well-balanced design. It becomes possible.

In the above embodiment, in addition to the editing operation using the individual editing image 418 of the “stamp and message” tool, the sample image 419 is displayed on the sample image 419 by touching the “use combined stamp” button 4111. The edit image 419a is automatically edited. Therefore, for example, when the graffiti time is insufficient, or when it is desired to edit to the same design as the sample image 419, the photographic image can be easily finished to the same design as the sample image 419.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Hereinafter, modifications of the embodiment will be described.
