The first display mechanism and the second display mechanism may be a cathode ray tube (CRT) and a liquid crystal display (LCD), although the present invention is not limited to this example. The selected image can be a captured image or some edited image, such as cursive and so on. As the selected image, single image or multiple images can be allowed. If a single-selected image is provided, a plurality of selected images can be arranged in the layout area, and if a plurality of selected images are provided, the plurality of selected images can be arranged in the layout area. The sticker can be A6 size, and other sizes such as A4 can also be selected. A volatile printer may be used, although the invention is not limited to this example. The image selection mechanism, the image size selection mechanism, the display position determination mechanism, the layout mechanism, and the data transmission mechanism can be achieved by the CPU, which operates in a predetermined procedure. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the layout area is divided into a plurality of rectangular basic areas, and the layout mechanism attaches a selected image to a single basic area and a plurality of adjacent basic areas. Therefore, it is not only conducive to decoration processing 'but also to user operation. A useless extra area is also prevented from happening inside the photo sticker. 81897 200306454 Fortunately, the vertical / horizontal side ratio of the basic area is 1 ·· / 2. This ratio can define similar blocks by using multiple adjacent basic areas, in other words, two basic areas adjacent to each other through long sides define a small block with a vertical / horizontal ratio of 丨: and an area that is twice that of the basic area. (However, rotate 90.). The two adjacent small blocks through the long side define a similar middle block, which rotates 90 ° with respect to the small block and the two adjacent middle blocks through the long side define a similar large block , And also rotated 90 °. Small blocks include 2 basic regions, medium blocks include 4 basic regions, and large blocks include 8 basic regions. Combining the blocks produces a desired layout without any useless areas on the photo stickers. Four types of image sizes can be used, namely large size, medium size, small size, and micro size, to achieve diverse layouts. A large size is equivalent to a large block composed of 8 basic regions, a medium size is equivalent to a middle block composed of 4 basic regions, a small size is equivalent to a small block composed of 2 basic regions, and a micro size Equivalent to a single basic area. In this example, it is preferable that the layout area is composed of more than 5 to a maximum of 7 basic areas on its vertical and horizontal sides, for a variety of layouts. In order to select images of all sizes without prior preparation, the layout processing mechanism preferably includes an image size changing mechanism for reducing or enlarging a selected image of a predetermined size according to a selected size. In order for the user to arrange the image without being aware that the block to which the image is attached is a vertical day or horizontal picture, preferably, the layout mechanism includes a decision mechanism, which is a vertical picture or a horizontal picture based on the selected image when the image is attached. The picture, and the basic area or block in the layout area attached with an image is a vertical picture or 81897 2003064 ^ 4 horizontal picture ', and it is determined that the selected image is a "turn mechanism, which is rotated 90% according to the D of the decision mechanism. 'And the image rotation in the process of sequentially attaching the image; f and rotate the image 90' appears. In this example, the image attached by the Jiaxing Xing method will be based on its size system, which is selected in-Shadow II = Selection of size = When including selected images in anti-overlap / non-interaction in the basic area. The system selects an infeasible image ruler for the user to easily operate the layout and complete the detection mechanism. When any self-contained camera device is further included, the monk detects that the layout is complete. Those who have a great image in each basic area can automatically proceed to the next processing. The right layout area is filled. Although the user can use any The special input, mouse and rocking input processing for input operation, for example, a use device is preferably constructed to further include: a stack is an automatic camera touch panel for users to: The size input mechanism and the display position determining mechanism. Good = Π. In order to facilitate the selection of the image, the second display mechanism captures the image, which is dedicated to the image display area 'to display the image of the shirt taken by the camera. Therefore, It is helpful to select the image with the touch pen. ::: To facilitate the selection of the image size, the second display is preferably 2; the step includes an image size selection area for displaying multiple image rulers, k Select from image. Therefore, it is helpful to select the image size with the stylus. Similarly, in order to help specify-display position, it is preferable that the display position is touched on the layout area by touching-the required position The designation: 81897 200306454 is particularly advantageous in that the second display is structured by other users during the layout process. The layout process can be during operation, and other users can increase the user's turnover rate. The mechanism is located outside the imaging space to facilitate imaging through the second display mechanism. Performed outside the camera space and even freely shoot in the layout space in the camera space. When at least the first display mechanism and the second display mechanism are arranged in a single outer box, and the f-display mechanism is arranged in the outer box to face the camera In the front of the space, and the second camera mechanism is arranged on the side or the back of the outer box, while the m users use the second display mechanism for layout operations, the next user can use the first display mechanism Performing tasks such as photography and writing can increase turnover. The right user does not want his or her own layout. 'In order for the image to be input under a predetermined layout and for the user to confirm the predetermined layout first, preferably, this automatic camera device further includes a second layout mechanism, which responds to the user ’s An input operation displays an image in a predetermined layout in a layout area. In this example, in order for the user to select from a plurality of layouts, it is preferred that the automatic camera device further includes a layout selection mechanism that selects one of the plurality of layouts in response to a user's input operation. In order to reduce the manpower for users to cut individual images from a printed photo sticker, it is preferable that the automatic camera device further includes a cropping command mechanism, which is in response to the user's input operation and commands to cut the printed image on the photo sticker. The area, and a cropper, cut out the print image area on the photo sticker in response to an input from one of the cropping order mechanisms. If the user orders to cut the image 81897 -11- 200306454, the area front cutter will automatically cut the following areas according to the layout. Therefore, omitting the need to cut and print the image area with a single knife or the like and save effort. Preferably, the cutter cuts and does not cut a part of a printed image area. Therefore, this can prevent the cut-off Lena II: 4 phases from being scattered when released through the photo sticker release hole. Similarly, use :: Tear off the uncut portion to separate the printed image area from the photo sticker. The input processing for the cutting order mechanism can be performed by any input mechanism, such as a special button, mouse, joystick or the like for operation, but it is preferably implemented in the second place for the touch panel overlay. Display mechanism to facilitate input operations. Because the input operation can be implemented on the second display mechanism, the user can execute the input mechanism in the orderly flow of the material processing. ~ P 7 in order. To enhance entertainment, it is preferable that the automatic camera device further includes a / editing mechanism, which is an image edited and displayed on the music-display mechanism in response to a user's input operation. In this example, the foot-selected image laid out by the second display mechanism is an image edited by an editing mechanism. In this example, in order to facilitate the user's input and operation on the editing mechanism, the automatic camera device is preferably further including-stacking the first-display mechanism. < The touch panel is touched, and the turn-in operation is performed by the user with a touch pen to implement the editing mechanism. … In order to prevent the user ’s layout operation from hindering other users from using this system, the automatic camera device preferably further includes an elapsed time detection mechanism :, = after the selected image is laid out through the second display mechanism, the warp and temple gate are detected And the layout formation mechanism is when the elapsed time detected by the elapsed time detection mechanism 81897 -12- 200306454 elapses 逵 f 丨 丨 _ ^ + In this example, the bureau is ordered. r Preview time and print; i # > π <, Time allowed for camera-object and edit image. If the two summaries are shorter, they can use the q = immediately after completing the image editing to use editing, which will help reduce the waste of waiting time until the machine is out of order: and perform system editing, and increase the number of users using this system. Turnover rate for users to edit the body. [Embodiment] FIG. 1 is the system of the present invention—the embodiment of the automatic camera system shown in FIG.

Next, the structure of a system defined by the above-mentioned automatic camera will be described later. 81897 -14- 200306454 As shown in FIG. 2, the automatic camera device includes a personal computer 40 for controlling the entire automatic camera device, and the personal computer 40 includes a CPU (Central Order 70) 42, a ROM (Read Only Memory) Body) 43, RAM (random access memory) 44 and interface (I / F) 45, the agencies are connected to each other by a bus 41. A hard disk drive 46, a CD-ROM drive 47, and other external devices described later are connected to the interface 45. The CPU 42 is based on a CD_R0M drive 47 and is installed in the hard disk drive. < program, and the entire operation, processing, and the like of the control system. The ROM 43 stores a basic program for controlling a personal computer. The RAM 44 temporarily stores work data of the CPU 42 and user input. External devices connected to the interface 45 such as a CCD camera 13, a liquid crystal display w (LCD) 14, a camera for moving the camera in a vertical direction, and a liquid crystal display state (LCD) 14. < Vertical driving unit 48, a camera position changing driving unit 49 for changing the vertical / horizontal position of the camera, a touch panel type monitor 15 with an input pen 16, a touch panel type monitor with an input pen 21 20 ′ lighting device 17, a sound output device 50 connected to the speaker 18, a coin processing section 51, a printer 52, and a cutter 53 to enable the CPU 42 and each Handshake. The changing machine 46 stores a program from the CD ROM drive 47 and various types of data for shooting and editing the target image. The touch panel type monitor 15 is formed by stacking a transparent touch panel 丨 5_ 丨 on the display screen of a CRT (cathode ray magic monitor 15 · 2), and its cheek is not displayed on the monitor The on-screen images are directly edited with the touch pen 16 and various types of input are obtained by touching the touch screen with the touch pen 16. 81897 -15- 200306454 Ming touch panel 20-1 and its precise touch pen 21 Touch-panel monitor 20 is constructed by stacking through a display screen of an LCD monitor 20-2. Touching the monitor screen enables multiple types of input. Instructs the user to use the sound every time they are output. The output of the device 50 is directed to, for example, the audio signal to Ip 8 1 8. Coin processing Shao 5 1 Detect the side of the coin into the coin slot and the coin, and if you pay # 1 pre-paid fee, it will soon This actual situation notifies the CPU 42 that the printer 52 prints the arranged target image on an A6… photo sticker in a volatile manner. The cutter 53 moves a cutter in the XY axis direction according to the layout to Facilitates cutting and releasing photo stickers released from printer 52 and releasing them from photo stickers Exhaust. Secondly, 'automatic camera device and operation will fail the test, Ping Ding, No. 3 heart mud map to explain later. If the user will use a predetermined # pry into Jiang 憋 / with the villager into the slave coin hole The coin processing part then informs the CPU 42 that the reservation fee has been paid, and as soon as it is five, the CPU 42 starts a game according to a program installed in the hard disk drive 46. The CPU 4 2 first displays a photo silly The courtesy shallow moss is like a remote control screen on the touch panel monitor 15 and prompts the user to choose a mode ^ $ k select the remote control mode (step 1). There are two camera modes '㈣' to emphasize Mode 'emphasis-combination of camera and combined picture' and cursive emphasis mode, which emphasizes-sketch on camera. For these two modes, the completed image and a decision button are displayed, and the user touches Use a pen to touch some completed images and make decisions to execute a choice. Of course, the user can change his or her choice at any time unless he or she touches the decision button. Μ 81897 -16- 200306454 If you choose Combined emphasis mode, CPU 42 The moving unit 48 moves the camera to a predetermined position, for example, the lowermost position, and then fixes the camera 13 to that position. Secondly, the CPU 42 displays a combined picture selection screen on the touch panel type monitor as 15. And prompt the user to select a combined screen (steps. Multiple combined screens are prepared for plural patterns in the hard disk drive 46, and when a display pattern ^: to the touch pen 16 touches, it belongs to the pattern The multiple combined pictures are displayed and displayed on the screen. The user can choose different forms of combined 2 faces, for example, two of them come from multiple combined pictures displayed on the screen, and this choice is also made by touching The touch pen 16 touches one and the left: touch the decision button displayed on the labor screen to implement it. ▲ The choice of the right-side beam, and the mouth-shaped picture, the CCD camera 13 during the interim photography is based on the CPU 42 and every eighteen ~ ~ ^ work system and besch (steps. Because currently cCD photography bang "# 像 is displayed on the liquid crystal display (lcd" 4 in real time, the user can shoot the same standing position of the same class as V ^ = 砚 节 this display image to confirm that he or she is standing by CPU42 through the sound output device 5 ° and output " The countdown sound of "3, 2, 1" is used to inform the user of the shutter timing and at the same time, the "3 ears" is indicated on the touch panel monitor 15. The countdown camera of "1", "1" is executed at-predetermined time For example, there are two selection screens for the three times of video shooting: Among them: follow ... The other three times of the video shooting are another-complete, and & style images, and the other faithful faces achieve a combined image. < The images are taken from a 640 × 480 camera and stored in the RAM. The images are output from the CCD camera and superimposed. 81897 -17- 200306454 On the other hand, if the cursive emphasis mode is selected in step 1, the CPU 42 displays a scene color selection screen on the touch panel monitor i 5 and prompts the user to select a background color (step 骡5). When selecting a background color, the user may touch a touch pen 16 to touch a background color selected from a plurality of background colors displayed on the screen, and touch a decision button displayed on the screen. The cursive emphasis mode allows the user to freely move the CCD camera in the vertical direction and therefore, after selecting a background color, the CPU 42 displays a scene to prompt the user to move the camera on the panel-type monitor. The camera's movement is hunted by a rocking button and a rising or falling button displayed on this screen. That is, if the CPU 42 detects that any of the up button $ down button displayed on the touch panel type monitor 15 is touched by the touch pen 16, it outputs a control signal to the drive unit 48 for vertical movement, To facilitate moving the ccd camera 13 up and down. At this time, the camera position changing driving unit 49 changes the picture direction of the camera according to a vertical position of one of the CCD cameras η, and it can be established so that, if the camera is positioned below a predetermined height, the camera takes a vertical picture: When high, it is implemented in a horizontal picture. When the camera moves to a desired position, the user touches the —: camera button on the screen to take a picture (step 7). Although the implementation of the camera system is similar to that of ^, the processing system returns to step 5 after the second implementation of the camera, and then ^ P-selection-background color is repeated. In this mode τ, the background color can be selected up to three times and the recording can be performed up to six times. The output from the CCD camera 13 is stored in the RAM 44. One of the cameras is stored in a selected background color. If the camera is finished, the CPU 42 displays a cursive screen for cursive 81897 -18- 200306454 Touch the panel-type monitor 丨 5 Camera 8 bang 1 豕Mu private "Editing of an image (step 8). The preview of the camera stored in RAM 44, the image, the tool conveying table, and the end of the sketch screen, and if any of the camera-preview images are selected by Touch Finance 16, the selected images are read out from RAM 44 And displayed on the grass nest screen. The user can use the stylus pen 16 to scribble on the image while touching one of the tool transport tables on the screen. ,, ~ Image If the user wants to end the cursive, he or she can touch the end button on the screen and can arrange the image. When the cursive writing is finished '-the cursive video is stored in the RAM 44. The processing so far is performed in a camera space through the touch panel type monitor " on the front side of the housing. Subsequent steps such as image selection and layout determination (step 9) and pre-cut selection (step 10) are implemented on the touch panel monitor 20 provided on the side of the casing through input operations. Therefore, when the user implements the image selection and layout determination steps (steps and a pre-cut selection step (step 10)), the next user can shoot and sketch in the camera space by touching the panel-type monitor 15 In one shot. After the text, the processing flow chart for image selection and layout decision in step 9 will be described in detail with reference to Figures 5 to 8. ° Right end with cursive as an image editing, CPU 42 display One of the layout decision screens 60 shown in FIG. 5 is on the touch panel type monitor 20 (step 20). The layout decision screen 60 includes a printable area equivalent to a photo sticker and is used to select images after the staffing is arranged. Layout area 61, a plural thumb δ for cursive camera 1897 -19- 200306454: a dedicated image display area for a heart image 62, a complex image ruler for displaying multiple image sizes, an image size selection area for '睪 -63, The remaining time display area 64 and _ for displaying the remaining time of the allowable layout processing are used to display a plurality of automatic buttons 65 <automatic selection area. Furthermore, a cancel key and-end of the 67 automatic selection displayed on the bottom of the layout decision screen 60 Area 65 on both sides. In order to touch the layout area 61 by a stylus, to specify the position where an image should be arranged on the layout area 61. 'The user can touch any of the images 62 and touches displayed in the dedicated image display area. Select an image size selection button 63 in the image size selection area to select an image to be laid out. If the user does not want to make the image layout by himself or herself, he or she can touch the automatic selection area by touching the pen 21 Inner duty—automatic sister 65 to automatically select the body. Cancel button 66 can be cancelled by touching the stylus 21 or the user's command. End button 67 can be touched by the stylus Finish the layout processing. The layout area 61 is divided by the dotted line 71 into the basic area 72, that is, a rectangle composed of 6 blocks in the vertical direction and 6 blocks in the horizontal direction. One of the images selected by the user is based on the image size It is displayed on a single basic area 72 or a block (73 to 75) composed of a plurality of adjacent basic areas 72. The vertical / horizontal ratio of the basic area 72 is 1: and is adjacent through its long sides. The second basic area forms a similar small block, It has twice the area of the basic area and rotates 900 in relation to the basic area. If two small blocks 73 are combined to form a similar middle block 74, it has twice the area of the small block. 81897 -20- 200306454 If the two middle blocks are combined, a similar large block 75, I is formed in the area of the middle block. All six images (images 1 to 6) after being sketched are displayed on a dedicated image display Area, and the user can select and display some of the 6 images. Remarks 4 types of image size selection buttons 63, that is, "large", "medium", ",", "small", "micro,", The image size can be selected from these four categories. The image size "large" is equivalent to a large block on the layout area, and "medium" is equivalent to a small block, "equivalent to a small block, and" micro "is equivalent to a basic Area. Of course, the image size is not limited to these four categories, a larger size can also be prepared. Note that four automatic buttons 65 (1 to 4) at the same time are different from each other, and the user can choose any of the four types of automatic layouts. Automatic buttons are not limited to these 4 types, but more types of automatic layouts can be prepared. Automatic button rir »^ Early description composition’ makes a different automatic layout be selected every time the pen touches the button. Behind the display of a layout decision, the CPU 42 determines whether any of the automatic buttons 65 is touched by the user 7 (step 21). If it is determined that the automatic button 65 is touched, the pre-layout layout of the one-two-two-touch automatic button is automatically read out from the hard disk drive 46 and connected to a well-balanced layout. The layout is automatically generated and displayed in the layout area 61. Within (step 22). If it is determined that any of the automatic buttons 65 has not been touched by the user in step 21, the system is ready for the user to select an image. The selection of the image is performed by causing 2 to touch the cursive image 62 in the dedicated image display area with the touch pen 21 (step 23). 81897 »21-200306454. If the CPU 42 detects that an image is selected, it will store the selected image in the RAM 44 and allow the user to select its image size. The selection of the image size is implemented by touching the pen 2 丨 touching any image size selection button (step 24) ° If the size of the selected image is input, the CPU 42 determines whether the size of the selected image is a selectable ( Step 25). This is because in the privacy of attaching a plurality of images, a size of the image attached by a code appears. If the CPU decides that this is a size that cannot be selected, it will not accept the image size selected by the user, and it will be available for selecting the image size again. As a result, due to the image size selection button 63, only the size that allows itself to be attached is a selectable size. If the CPU 42 determines that this is a selectable size, it is stored in the ram44 to select the foot size. Subsequently, in response to the selected size on the layout area, the CPU 42 flashes (as shown in FIG. 6) to indicate an area where an image is allowed to be attached, and is then ready for the user to specify an attachment position. Specifying an attached position is performed by the user touching the touch pen 21 to any position on the layout area (step 27). If an attached position is input, the CPU 42 determines whether the designated position exists in an area where the selected size image can be attached (step 28). The right CPU 42 determines that it does not exist in an area where an image can be attached, that is, it does not accept a position designated by the user, and is prepared for specifying a position again. A display position is determined by the CPU 42 through steps 27 and 28. If the specified position is within an area where the selected size image can be attached, cpU 42 reduces the selected image to the selected size to prepare an image to be attached (step 29), and the vertical image is based on the selected image Or horizontal painting 81897 -22- 200306454, and one of the basic areas or a block attached to the selected image is a vertical or horizontal image, and determines whether the image should be rotated 90. (Step 30). If the vertical / horizontal side of the image does not match the basic area or block of the attached image, the CPU 42 determines that the image needs to be rotated and then rotates the selected foot's image in a predetermined direction, such as clockwise 9 〇. (Step 3 1). Eight / in, the CPU 42 attaches and displays a selected image prepared in an area including the designated position in the layout area 61 (step 32). As a result, the selected image is attached to the layout area 61 with the selected size and displayed. <, and the processing sequence from the selection of the image to the attachment and display of the image is repeated until the user touches the end button or the layout area completely fills the image. In other words, the CPU 42 attaches the selected image to the selected size in the layout area 61 and displays it (step 32) and then determines whether the end button 66 is touched by the user (step 33). If the CPU 42 decides that the end button 66 has not been touched, it depends on whether the layout area 61 is filled because any image system is arranged on all the basic areas (step 34). If the CPU 42 determines that the layout area is not full, it tests the number of repetitions (step 35) and pauses (step 36), and then brings the processing flow back to step 23. According to this, the user selects an image size by touching a randomly selected image with a stylus pen, and then selects an image size by touching the corresponding image size selection button with the stylus pen, and touching the image with which he or she wants to arrange the image with the stylus pen. A position. By repeating this private sequence, he or she can obtain a camera layout with a high degree of freedom, while observing and confirming the layout displayed in the layout area. Figure 6 reveals a layout decision screen in which 5 images are attached to the layout area and displayed. In the layout area 61, two medium-sized images 1, 2 are displayed on the left, one 81897 -23- 200306454 large-sized image 4 is displayed on the right, and two small-sized images Bu 2 are displayed at the center of the top. Same as Schematic Reveal-Shancan cursor 76, which indicates the area where a medium-sized image can be attached in response to the media size selected by the user (step 26) ° If the CPU detects the end of step 33 in step 33, the user is affected by the user Touch Shiya with the touch pen, or fill up the body area in step 34, which displays one of the ending confirmation screens 80 shown in FIG. 7 on the touch panel monitor 20 to overlap the layout decision screen. (Steps 3 7). On the closing confirmation screen, it displays-item 81 to ask the user if he wants to print it out in a round. The user can input his or her answer to this question by touching the "Yes" field or the No. field. cp second decision $ "% s" or "N0" is touched (step is called and if it is determined to be touched again, the CPU ends the layout processing. If it is determined to be "touched," the processing flow is brought back Go to step 23. f. No time exceeds ― pre-footing time or a pause occurs and the end button is not touched. U touch the stone or the area is not filled yet, the decoration is forced to occupy for a long time, so as not to use n after use, CPU42 decides In step 35, the layout area 61 has not been filled yet, and the image selection or image attachment is repeated 36 (step 35). The rPTT, ia, and gan gan double passes have been automatically opened,; / 疋, If it is over, the rest of the layout area is automatically filled (step 39), and the layout process ends. The number of post-repeats does not exceed 36, and the cpu decides that the body processing is to start mu for a predetermined time (step 36), and If the CPU determines / ,, ', α meaning', the layout decision processing ends. 81897 -24- 200306454 The predetermined time is set to be shorter than the time allowed for recording and sketching, so: a user can make image selection and The layout decision process does not need to wait after the grassy nest. The more special is The scheduled time and the printing time of a printer are set to be shorter than the time allowed for video and cursive writing. Typically, the time allowed for video and cursive writing is 5 to 6 minutes in total. The total of the scheduled time and printing time of the meter is less than 5 minutes, preferably 3 to 4 minutes. The image selection and layout decision processing on the layout 4 screen is not shown in Figure 3. < Ended in step 9 and thereafter, the process proceeds to the pre-cut selection process by touching the panel-type monitor 20 (FIG. 3, step 10). In the pre-cut selection process, the CPU displays a pre-cut selection screen μ shown in FIG. 8 on the touch panel type monitor 20. The pre-cut selection screen displays a question 86 to ask the user whether to cut a sticker, and the user enters his or Her response to this question. Furthermore, a layout 89 determined by the previous process for image selection and layout determination is displayed on the pre-cut selection screen. A print button 90 is displayed on the right corner of the screen. The touch pen touches the print button 90 to start printing from a printer. If the user touches with the touch pen, either "Yes" or "No", the CPU 42 stores the touched person in the RAM 44 And the print button is ready for touch. If the user touches the print button 90 with the touch pen 2 1, the CPU 42 detects this, and it transmits a programmed image to the printer 5 2 as related to The print data of a single photo sticker and start printing. The printer 52 prints the selected image 81897 -25- 200306454 on the A6 size photo sticker based on the print data it receives. If the user chooses Crop the sticker or touch the cutter 53 to help start cropping = ^ Cut the photo sticker Individual image area: except in accordance with Bureau of the Conference and the user touches the "N. ", Then the photo sticker == 5 selects 3 selects = paper or does not cut. ，, cut Zhai 53 to release it, and the eight cutter 53 cut and leave two or The three knives are not cut. Therefore, this prevents the cut-out printed image area from spreading out when it is released through the photo sticker release hole 22. The left uncut part is so small that it is not easy for the user to tear, so The individual print image areas are separated. J l Figure 9 reveals an example of printing photo stickers in one of the layouts of the image. In this paste example,-a large-size image is arranged in the upper left, and four medium-size images are in its 10,000 or four. — A small-size image is at the bottom right and four medium-size images are above it. It can be known from the text that the present invention includes a second display mechanism that is rolled into the photo sticker printing area and used to display and select selected images. Layout area: image selection mechanism, which is in response to the user's _ input operation, the auto-image in the self-image, the image size selection mechanism should be forked, the user's input operation to select an image size for Each selected image and display position determining mechanism should The display position in the layout area is determined by the user's input operation for each selected image, and the layout machine positions the selected image body in the layout area of the second cheek mechanism according to the size and determined position of the image. Therefore, the user can place the image on the makeup sheet sticker with high degree of freedom while confirming a cloth that is displayed on the layout area \ And 81897 -26-200306454 The user can have fun in the layout processing. Furthermore, it can A photo sticker of the transformation. 7 According to the present invention, the second display mechanism is located at the bottom of the display while m. ,, is popped out of the second room or in the surface 0 or w of the housing. Implementation outside.
