Embodiment 2

2 is a flowchart of a method for transmitting multiple pictures in an instant messaging application according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes the following steps: as shown in step S201, the first terminal receives a user input in a session task. An instruction to insert a picture in the message, according to the instruction to open the picture selection interface. In this embodiment, the user inputs an instruction to insert a picture in the message in the session task of the instant messaging application, and the instant messaging application opens the picture selection interface according to the instruction, where the picture selection interface includes but is not limited to: a local picture. The interface and the network picture selection interface are selected, and the instructions for inserting the picture include, but are not limited to, a voice instruction, a button instruction, and a gesture instruction.

Then, as shown in step S202, the first terminal receives a selection operation of the user in the picture selection interface, and records the selection order of each picture. In this embodiment, the first terminal receives a selection order of each picture after the user selects a plurality of pictures in the picture selection interface. The step of recording the order of selecting each picture includes: 1. the first terminal receives the added order selected by the user; and the first terminal adds the multiple pictures to the received order according to the received order of addition. The transmitting procedure of the first terminal is described. In the embodiment of the invention The first terminal may preset an order of adding pictures, where the order of adding includes but not limited to: a, adding a picture according to a user's click order. The first page that the user clicks is first added to the system's sending program, the second and second clicks that the user clicks are added to the system's sending program, and so on; b. The pictures are added according to the size of the pictures. That is, the user clicks on all the pictures, and the first terminal sorts the pictures, and adds the pictures to the system's sending program in order from small to large or large to small. The user selects one of a plurality of preset addition orders, and the first terminal receives the order of addition selected by the user.

Next, as shown in step S203, the first terminal adds the selected plurality of pictures to the sending program of the first terminal.

Next, as shown in step S204, the first terminal sends the multiple pictures to the server. In this embodiment, although the user selects multiple pictures at a time, for the terminal, the prior art still needs to send one by one, so the first terminal will add multiple pieces to the sending program. The pictures are sent to the server one by one.

Next, as shown in step S205, the server receives the plurality of pictures and transmits the pictures to the second terminal. In the embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the multiple pictures sent by the first terminal, the server sends the multiple pictures to the second terminal, and the server only plays the role of transmission during the sending process.

In summary, the first terminal receives a click operation instruction of the user in the picture selection interface, and adds the multiple pictures to the sending program of the system, and sends the multiple pictures one by one according to the adding order. To the server, the server receives the plurality of pictures and transmits the plurality of pictures to the second terminal. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the user can send multiple pictures in one operation, which solves the problem that the prior art cannot send multiple pictures in one operation.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the receiving user is in the After the step of selecting a plurality of pictures, and recording the order of selecting each picture, before the step of adding the selected plurality of pictures to the sending process of the first terminal, the present invention is an instant messaging application. The method of sending a plurality of pictures in the method further includes: displaying a thumbnail of the plurality of pictures in the selected order in the message sending interface. In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, after the user selects multiple pictures, the first terminal may generate a thumbnail of the multiple pictures, and provide the thumbnail to the user, so that the user performs the thumbnail. Add, remove, etc. to achieve re-selection of multiple images.

In another embodiment of the present invention, after the step of receiving the user selecting a plurality of pictures in the picture selection interface and recording the order of selecting each picture, the plurality of pictures to be selected Before the step of adding the sending program to the first terminal, the method for transmitting a plurality of pictures in the instant messaging application of the present invention further comprises the step of compressing the length and width dimensions of the plurality of pictures in proportion. In the embodiment of the present invention, considering the size of a plurality of pictures, it is possible to put pressure on the bandwidth during transmission to the server. Therefore, after the user selects multiple pictures, the first terminal may perform compression processing on the multiple pictures one by one, and the compression processing includes, but is not limited to, proportionally compressing the length and width dimensions of the multiple pictures. That is, if the compression is performed at 50% of the size, the length and width of the picture are compressed to 50% of the original size.

Embodiment 3
