Image Editing/Generation

[inferium]

Could somebody point me to a good tutorial on Image Editing/Generation in PHP? What I want to do is take a simple template image and add text to it in certain areas, but do this through a form process. Thanks a bunch!!!

http://php.net/imagestring

 

and also.. in the lil examples on there they use imagecreate() {http://php.net/imagecreate} however, you can use imagecreatefromjpeg imagecreatefrompng imagecreatefromgif

{

  http://php.net/imagecreatefromjpeg

  http://php.net/imagecreatefrompng

  http://php.net/imagecreatefromgif

}

to create an image resource with the width/height/image of the template file

 

I hope I helped

Ah sweet, this is something like what I was looking for. I found what I think is maybe a more relevant to what I want to do at http://scriptplayground.com/tutorials/php/Text-On-Image/

 

But I want to do this through forms. How would I make a form write to a certain part of the image?

use $_REQUEST to get the information.. and putthe text where you'd put the static text
