<?

header ("Content-type: image/gif");
$im= imagecreatefromgif("images/user.gif"); //Image i want to use
$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255,255,255); //Text color set to white
$txt = (imagesx($im) - 260); //Text will be on the positions (-260 the image width).
$txt2 = (imagesx($im) - 390);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 15, "Hi guys im still making this image", $color);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 30, "so Please...leave  now", $color);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt2, 15, "Another img to", $color);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt2, 30, "be put here", $color);

So whats the question ?.. sounds like you just want someone to add code and explain it step by step !

also how urgent is this ?

[ILYAS415]

lol well.... okay the question is...

how do i put an image onto the gd img i povided? i hav no idea how to do and google gives me weird results.

[MadTechie]

erm..

maybe this

<?php
$im= imagecreatefromgif("images/".$_GET['img']); //Image i want to use
?>

[ILYAS415]

won't that replace the image i already have on their?

[MadTechie]

i don't see how.. your not saving the image!

[phorcon3]

<?php

$bg = './images/example.png';//url->img ex: (www/images/example.png)

$img = imagecreatefrompng($bg);//creates img from file

header('Content-type: image/png');

imagepng($img);//output

?>

 

maybe this helps:

ummm i dont think that'll help...

what im trying to do is create a picture ontop of the other picture (so both pictures are still showing) and then use then position the second picture somewhere on the first picture. ive already made the first picture (which is on the code i specified) now i need to make a second picture_.

[MadTechie]

Create a new image palette (imagecreate)

then merge the image into it

imagecopymerge

Okay come up with an error...

www.ragingmortals.com/tester.php

 

New code:

<?

//CREATED BY WASIM ILYAS!<-- THATS ME! ILYAS THE GREAT

require_once "includes/db_connect.php";

session_start();

$query= mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username'");

header ("Content-type: image/gif");

$im= imagecreatefromgif("images/user.gif"); //Image i want to use

$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255,255,255); //Text color set to white

$txt = (imagesx($im) - 260); //Text will be on the positions (-260 the image width).

$txt2 = (imagesx($im) - 390);

imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 15, "Hi guys im still making this image", $color);

imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 30, "so Please...leave now", $color);

imagestring($im, 3, $txt2, 15, "Another img to", $color);

imagestring($im, 3, $txt2, 30, "be put here", $color);

imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 45, "$username", $color);

 

$secondim= imagecreatefromgif("images/characters/rmchar5.gif");

imagecopymerge($im, $secondim, 0, 0, 15, 15);;

 

imagegif($im);

imagedestroy($im);

?>

[MadTechie]

okay as your not telling us the error i'll guess..

its on this line

imagecopymerge($im, $secondim, 0, 0, 15, 15);; //<-Right ?

Now i can see 2 problems with that..

 

1. you have 2 ;;'s

2. read the manual for the

imagecopymerge

 

 

sorry but if you won't make an effort then why should i!

[ILYAS415]

Okay i think i kinda got it now. Took a while tho

Hav a kl now and pls advise on any changes...

i changed the imagecopymerge function to

imagecopymerge($im, $secondim, 0, 0, 15, 15, 71, 146, 100);

[ILYAS415]

Hmm any their?

This should have the desired effect (you need to add in the database parts and file locations yourself)

 

<?php

header ("Content-type: image/gif");
$im= imagecreatefromgif("user.gif"); //Image i want to use
$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255,255,255); //Text color set to white
$txt = (imagesx($im) - 260); //Text will be on the positions (-260 the image width).
$txt2 = (imagesx($im) - 390);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 15, "Hi guys im still making this image", $color);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 30, "so Please...leave Angry now", $color);
imagestring($im, 3, $txt, 45, $username, $color);

$secondim= imagecreatefromgif("rmchar5.gif");
imagecopymerge($im, $secondim, 10, 15, 0, 0, 71, 146, 100);

imagegif($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>

 

the black part was to do with this part:

 

imagecopymerge($im, $secondim, 0, 0, 15, 15, 71, 146, 100);

 

The code I have there gives this output:
