A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• executing a chat application generating a first display image comprising a game application image generated by a first game application and at least one distribution camera image distributed in a participating session;
• causing the first game application to obtain the at least one distribution camera image based on a first request issued by the first game application during execution of the chat application;
• and
• causing the chat application to generate a second display image comprising the game application image generated by the first game application and not comprising the at least one distribution camera image during execution of the chat application.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having stored therein instructions that cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• executing a chat application generating a first display image comprising a game application image generated by a first game application and at least one distribution camera image distributed in a participating session;
• causing the first game application to obtain the at least one distribution camera image based on a first request issued by the first game application during execution of the chat application;
• and
• causing the chat application to generate a second display image comprising the game application image generated by the first game application and not comprising the at least one distribution camera image during execution of the chat application.
