A method for processing images in an information sharing and collaboration environment includes: receiving a plurality of graphical contents including a first graphical content from a first source and a second graphical content from a second source different from the first source within the information sharing and collaboration environment and overlapping the first and second graphical contents; determining a probability that the first graphical content was created before the second graphical content; rendering, using a transparency blending formula and based on the probability that the first graphical content was created before the second graphical content, an opacity of an overlapped portion of the first and second graphical contents; and displaying, on a display, the overlapped first and second graphical contents.
