1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing system including one or more computing devices that each include a processor and memory, first input data to provide a content item to one or more recipients, the content item comprising user content that includes at least one of image content or video content captured via a client application, wherein the content item is associated with an account of a first user of the client application;
generating, by the computing system, a first user interface that includes a plurality of user interface elements selectable to make the content item accessible to one or more recipients, the first user interface including (i) a first section displaying the plurality of user interface elements, the plurality of user interface elements being individually selectable to make the content item accessible to an individual user of the client application that is a contact of the first user with respect to the client application, (ii) a second section that includes a user interface element that is selectable to make the content item publicly accessible to a number of additional users of the client application that are not contacts of the first user with respect to the client application, and (iii) a third section that includes a first additional user interface element selectable to select one or more classifications to correspond to the content item and a second additional user interface element selectable to cause the content item to be stored in a database within a collection of content items related to the one or more classifications and to be accessible to a number of further users of the client application in relation to the one or more classifications;
generating, by the computing system and in response to selection of the user interface element in the second section, a second user interface that includes at least a portion of the plurality of user interface elements of the first section and an expanded version of the user interface element in the second section, the expanded version of the user interface element including an additional first section within the expanded version of the user interface element that includes a thumbnail of the content item and an additional second section within the expanded version of the user interface element that is configured to capture alphanumeric content related to the content item;
identifying, by the computing system, second input data indicating one or more alphanumeric characters entered in the additional second section; and
generating, by the computing system, a modified version of the content item for display in a third user interface, the modified version of the content item comprising the one or more alphanumeric characters overlaid on the user content.
