Flava Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I've only quickly browsed the site and the forum, and have been unable to find anything - I haven't got much time so I am just going to post this really quickly. Hope you can help! Anyway, my PHP server has imaging enabled (correct .dll and everything) and the image functions seem to work fine. I'm a bit of a novice to it all however, and have had trouble finding/understand certain things. I own a video game website, and would like to create a script that produces gamer cards for users. If you own an Xbox 360, you'll probably know what I mean. These gamer cards will simply be images, but display certain information about users - such as their gamer tags (username), games they own and their avatars. I have all the images ready, it's just putting them together that is the problem. The gamer cards consist of a background, which is 250x90 in size. We then have icons which respresent different games, all of which are 20x20. Each gamercard will display 5 games, as well as the user's avatar which is 40x40. I have attached a simply example of how these will look (hopefully!). The game icons are uploaded to directories on my server, and so I need to retrieve them seperately and somehow copy them to the background image, along with avatars .etc. I don't want you guys to go and code it for me - all I would like to know is how I'd go about loading the background image, then copying the icons and avatar to the image (as well as adding text). I have tried several tutorials but they never explained it particularly well and wouldn't always work out as planned. I hope you understand, if you have any questions for me please ask (I would add more information, however I must leave for work now!)

freakus_maximus Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 There is a tutorial on the site to get you started with working with GD and creating images at run time. http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/105/0.php It's not going to answer all your needs but it should get you started.

Flava Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 I've already gone through those tutorials, however they don't really explain to me how I could achieve what I need to. How would I go about loading a background image, then copying other images on top of that in certain positions?
