Abstract
One embodiment of a technique for generating an image for a geographic location comprises receiving a current geographic location of a mobile device. The technique also includes obtaining a plurality of candidate templates, each candidate template associated with a geographic usage location defining a geographic area to which the candidate template applies. The technique also includes identifying a candidate template with a geographic usage location that matches the current geographic location of the mobile device as an identified template. The technique further includes receiving, from the mobile device, a modified image, the modified image combining in an overlapping fashion the identified template and a source image captured on the mobile device at the current geographic location of the mobile device. The technique further includes, in response to receiving the modified image from the mobile device, automatically distributing the modified image to ones of a plurality of other devices.
