GD Image Stuff

[Ryan_Sanders]

I want to make a script that puts a transparent image on top of another image.. like instead of text.. you put an image on it.. so you don't have to edit each picture and putting the logo on it.

How would I do this?

GD doesn't support GIF anymore, so getting a transparent image won't be possible i don't believe. option maybe to not have it transparent?

could use CSS positioning w/ transparent GIF for your logo:

<div id="Layer1" z-index:1;>
<img src="main.jpg">
</div>

<div id="Layer2" style="position:relative; z-index:2; left: 125px; top: -75px">
<img src="logo.gif">
</div>

there's a way to make the logo relative to the main image you want to overlay it w/ not exactly sure the method, but can toy w/ the above code.

OR, could forgo transparency and use a square? logo? over your image, and then figure out how to overlay those two w/ GD, that i'm not sure of.

may want to look at the following link too, it has something w/ transparent in it for GD, i've not checked it out much:
