Abstract

An image processing method includes detecting pointer contact positions trajectories on a display surface, displaying a first image on the display surface, displaying a second image having first and second portions on the display surface using the first image as a background, moving a second image display position on the display surface along the pointer trajectory when a pointer trajectory starting point is included in a display surface area on which the second image is displayed, providing a drawing effect to a first image portion overlapping a second image trajectory when the starting point is included in an area in which the first portion is displayed in the moving the second image display position, and keeping the first image portion display overlapping the second image trajectory when the starting point is included in an area in which the second portion is displayed in the moving the second image display position.
