Abstract: A fixing member includes a substrate layer including a resin; a first metal layer that is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the substrate layer and including Cu; a second metal layer that is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the first metal layer so as to be in contact with the first metal layer, includes Ni, and has crystal orientation indexes of 0.80 to 1.30 for a (111) plane, 0.80 to 1.50 for a (200) plane, and 0.70 to 1.30 for a (311) plane; and an elastic layer that is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the second metal layer.

Abstract: A fixing belt includes an annular polyimide resin base layer having a lower imidization ratio in the outer peripheral surface than in a central portion in the thickness direction, a metal layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the polyimide resin base layer, and an elastic layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the metal layer.

Abstract: A fixing belt includes an annular resin base layer having a water absorption rate of 3% or less, a metal layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the resin base layer, and an elastic layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the metal layer.

Abstract: An image distribution device receives, from a terminal device, a handwritten and input image including a trajectory handwritten and inputted by a first user in a state where a virtual space, in which characters of the first and a second user are present, is set as a background, to a display view of the terminal device on which the virtual space is displayed. By transmitting, to the terminal device, the received handwritten and input image as a message from the first user, the image distribution device displays the handwritten and input image on the display view of the terminal device on which the virtual space is displayed while associating the handwritten and input image with the character of the first user.
