Terminal and control method thereof

1. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

displaying an image list;

receiving an input selecting a particular image from the image list;

converting an entire panorama of the selected image into a preset three-dimensional curved shape when the selected image is a panorama-type image;

displaying an image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape; and

changing a size or length of the preset three-dimensional curved shape in response to detecting at least one multi-touching input on the preset three-dimensional curved shape,

wherein the preset three-dimensional curved shape comprises a circular band, polygonal band, spiral shape, sine wave, spherical shape, or cylindrical shape.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting whether an option associated with the display of the image is set;

detecting whether a condition corresponding to the option is satisfied if the option associated with the display of the image is set; and

applying the option to the preset three-dimensional curved shape if the condition corresponding to the set option is satisfied.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising continuously displaying the selected particular image on inner and outer sides of the preset three-dimensional curved shape.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the option comprises an option for rotating the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape in a particular direction.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the option for rotating the image comprises an option for rotating the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape at a particular time interval.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the option for rotating the image further comprises an option for rotating an image comprising a portion captured in a particular direction to which the mobile terminal faces to be oriented in the particular direction.

7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the option for rotating the image further comprises an option for detecting a user's touch and flicking to rotate the image in the flicking direction.

8. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

rotating the preset three-dimensional curved shape if the condition corresponding to the set option is satisfied;

suspending the rotation if a user's touch input is detected; and

re-starting the rotation according to the set option if the user's touch input is released.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

widening a length of one side of the preset three-dimensional curved shape when the at least one multi-touching input is detected on one side of the object and a spacing of the at least one multi-touching input is widened; and

narrowing the length of the one side of the preset three-dimensional curved shape when the at least one multi-touching input is detected on the one side of the object the spacing of the at least one multi-touching input is narrowed.

10. The method of claim 2 , wherein the option comprises an option to display preset supplementary information overlapped on an inner side or an outer side of the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the present supplementary information comprises at least clock information, orientation information, phone conversation information, videophone conversation information, portrait information, phone book information, or a graphic image.

12. A mobile terminal, comprising:

a display unit;

a touch pad configured to receive an input selecting an image displayed on the display unit; and

a controller configured to:

determine a type of the selected image;

convert an entire panorama of the selected image into a preset three-dimensional curved shape and display the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape when the image is a panorama-type image; and

change a size or length of the preset three-dimensional curved shape in response to detecting at least one multi-touching input on the preset three-dimensional curved shape,

wherein the preset three-dimensional curved shape comprises a circular band, polygonal band, spiral shape, sine wave, spherical shape, or cylindrical shape.

13. The mobile terminal of claim 12 , wherein the controller is further configured to apply an option associated with the display of the image to the preset three-dimensional curved shape when the option is set and a condition corresponding to the option is satisfied.

14. The mobile terminal of claim 13 , wherein the controller is further configured to rotate the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape in a particular direction according to the set option.

15. The mobile terminal of claim 14 , wherein the controller is further configured to rotate the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape at a particular time interval according to the set option.

16. The mobile terminal of claim 14 , wherein the controller is further configured to rotate an image comprising a portion captured in a particular direction to which the mobile terminal faces such that the image is oriented in the particular direction according to the set option.

17. The mobile terminal of claim 14 , wherein the controller is further configured to detect a user's touch and flicking to rotate the image in the flicking direction according to the set option.

18. The mobile terminal of claim 13 , wherein the controller is further configured to display preset supplementary information overlapped on an inner side or an outer side of the image comprising the preset three-dimensional curved shape according to the set option.
