Techniques are described for a social networking system to provide collective accounts that allow for multiple holders, editors, and/or managers. In some cases, the social networking system may be configured to distribute content associated with the collective accounts based on metrics and relationships associated with accounts of the contributors to the collective account as well as the collective account itself.

Collective user accounts

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a landscape video to be presented in a vertical orientation through a display screen of a computing device. Frames of the landscape video can be cropped to allow for full screen presentation of the landscape video in the vertical orientation. The cropped frames of the landscape video can be provided for presentation through the display screen of the computing device in the vertical orientation.

Systems and methods for processing content

Techniques are described for a social networking system to enable multiple users to collaboratively create, publish, receive attribution, and/or edit content. In some cases, the social networking system may be configured to distribute the collaborative content and feedback associated therewith based on metrics and relationships between collaborators of the collaborative content and users of the social networking system.

Collaborative posts

Techniques are described that enable a user to create a collection of content posts on a social networking system. In some cases, a social networking system receives multiple content posts to be shared, and shares the multiple content posts with a first group of user accounts. The social networking system receives a request to create a collection of one or more content posts of the multiple content posts, where the request includes a descriptor associated with the collection. The social networking system generates the collection of the one or more content posts including the descriptor, and provides the collection to a second group of user accounts.

Social network collections

In one embodiment, a method includes a system accessing an image, which may comprise covered and uncovered portions, and an overlay image comprising opaque pixels. The covered portion may be configured to be covered by the opaque pixels of the overlay image. The system may generate a data structure comprising data elements associated with pixels of the image. Each of the data elements associated with a covered pixel in the covered portion of the image may be configured to identify an uncovered pixel in the uncovered portion of the image that is closest to the covered pixel. Each covered pixel in the covered portion of the image may be modified by accessing the data element associated with the covered pixel, determining a distance between the covered pixel and an associated closest uncovered pixel using the accessed data element, and modifying a color of the covered pixel based on the distance.

Systems and methods for occluding images and videos subject to augmented-reality effects

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can present landscape content through a display screen of the computing device, the landscape content being presented in a landscape viewing mode. A rotation of the display screen to transition to a portrait viewing mode can be determined. The landscape content can be scaled based on the rotation of the display screen, wherein the scaled landscape content is presented through the display screen.

Systems and methods for providing content

A digital magazine application executing on a client device is configured to receive content items from a user of the client device or from a digital magazine server, generate pages in a digital magazine by processing the received content, and provide the pages to a user of the client device. The client device generates a new personalized digital magazine for a user by enabling the user to select content items stored in the user's local storage of the client device and to create stories about the selected content items. The personalized digital magazine includes the user's own content items, corresponding stories and content items recommended by the digital magazine server, which share common characteristics with the user's own content items. The client device can also include a user's own content items into a magazine currently presented to the user.
