Claim:
An information delivering system for delivering information through a communication network, said information delivering system comprising: a content generation means for generating three-dimensional content for presentation; an information delivering server configured to deliver said three-dimensional content to a client terminal; and said client terminal configured to receive and display said three-dimensional content, wherein said client terminal includes a content receiving means, a skinning data calculation means and a reproduction means; wherein said three-dimensional content is generated by said content generation means by creating a three-dimensional virtual space as projected onto a plane and arranging objects indicative of said information within said three-dimensional space, said content generation means generates said three-dimensional content separately as a skin component which deforms with motion and a bone component which does not deform with motion, said information delivering server transmits an initial skin component and an initial bone component and a subsequent bone component to said content receiving means, said skinning data calculation means determines a subsequent skin component based on the subsequent bone component; and said reproduction means renders said three-dimensional content by rendering said initial skin component and said initial bone component and said subsequent skin component and said subsequent bone component.
