select the first color that is displayed at the color area based on which color, of a plurality of colors present in the first image, meets a portion threshold relative to other colors of the plurality of colors.
4. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
select a plurality of images from among the stored images, in response to further input, wherein the first image and the second image are two of the plurality of images; and
generate a plurality of collage wallpapers, each having a predetermined layout, based on the selected plurality of images, wherein each collage wallpaper of the plurality of collage wallpapers includes a different arrangement of the selected plurality of images.
5. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
determine whether or not a modification period for modifying the displayed collage wallpaper is present based on at least one of a display attribute of the displayed collage wallpaper or an operation status of the terminal; and
cause the display to display a different collage wallpaper, from among a plurality of collage wallpapers included in a collage wallpaper set, when the modification period is present.
6. The terminal of claim 5 , wherein the display attribute includes at least one of display timing, display time, or display count of the displayed collage wallpaper, and wherein the operation status of the terminal includes a turn-on status of the display or a display status of the displayed collage wallpaper.
7. The terminal of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
determine whether or not the modification period for modifying the displayed collage wallpaper is present based on time elapsed from a first point at which the displayed collage wallpaper is first displayed or a second point at which the displayed collage wallpaper is last displayed in a single cycle for which the plurality of the collage wallpapers included in the collage wallpaper set are displayed.
8. The terminal of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
cause the display to display the different collage wallpaper according to an order based on a layout set of the plurality of collage wallpapers included in the collage wallpaper set.
9. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the first color of the color area is a single color.
10. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the first area corresponds to the color area and the second area corresponds to the image area.
11. The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
enlarge the other of the first image and the second image in the second area when the one of the first image and the second image disappears from the second area in response to the occurrence of the event.
12. A display method performed at a terminal having a display and memory, the method comprising:
selecting a first image and a second image in response to an input, wherein the first image and the second image are two of a plurality of images stored in the memory;
displaying, on the display, a screen comprising a color area and an image area, wherein the color area includes a first color that is displayed;
displaying, on the display, the first image and the second image in the image area;
generating a collage wallpaper comprising the first color at a first area and the first image and the second image at a second area, and wherein the first area is a partial portion of the collage wallpaper and the second area is a remaining portion of the collage wallpaper;
displaying, on the display, the collage wallpaper; and
changing the first color into a predetermined second color at the first area, displaying event information at the first area of the second color, having one of the first image and the second image disappear from the second area, and having the other of the first image and the second image remain at the second area in the collage wallpaper in response to an occurrence of an event, wherein the second color is predetermined to correspond to the event.
13. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
displaying, on the display, an application screen corresponding to the event in response to an input received with regard to the displayed event information.
14. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
selecting the first color that is displayed at the color area based on which color, of a plurality of colors present in the first image, meets a portion threshold relative to other colors of the plurality of colors.
15. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
selecting a plurality of images from among the stored images, in response to further input, wherein the first image and the second image are two of the plurality of images; and
generating a plurality of collage wallpapers, each having a predetermined layout, based on the selected plurality of images, wherein each collage wallpaper of the plurality of collage wallpapers includes a different arrangement of the selected plurality of images.
16. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
determining whether or not a modification period for modifying the displayed collage wallpaper is present based on at least one of a display attribute of the displayed collage wallpaper or an operation status of the terminal; and
displaying, on the display, a different collage wallpaper, from among a plurality of collage wallpapers included in a collage wallpaper set, when the modification period is present.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the display attribute includes at least one of display timing, display time, or display count of the displayed collage wallpaper, and wherein the operation status of the terminal includes a turn-on status of the display or a display status of the displayed collage wallpaper.
